"Try It Baby" is a slow bluesy ballad recorded by American soul singer Marvin Gaye, released on the Tamla label in 1964. It was written and produced by Motown head honcho Berry Gordy, and talked of a woman who was "moving up" and "leaving (her man) behind".

To help him along the way, The Temptations (fresh off scoring their first few hits) assisted Gaye in the track providing background vocals. The song reached #15 on the pop singles chart and #6 on the R&B singles chart.

"Try It Baby" was covered in 1968 as a joint effort by Diana Ross & the Supremes and The Temptations. Featuring Melvin Franklin, Diana Ross, and Paul Williams on leads, the track was included on the 1968 LP "Diana Ross & the Supremes Join the Temptations", their first of four joint albums.
