Come Back Baby

Come Back Baby

"Come Back Baby" is a slow blues number written and recorded by Walter Davis in 1940. Ray Charles' cover was released as the B-side to Charles' groundbreaking 1954 single, "I Got a Woman". Both later appeared on his 1956 album Ray Charles (or, Hallelujah I Love Her So). The song got popular airplay on the R&B charts at the time and was issued as a single where it eventually peaked at number four on the R&B singles chart.

Aretha Franklin later covered the song in a faster-paced version in 1967, featured on her Lady Soul album. Footage of Franklin recording the song can be found in a PBS documentary about her life. Franklin included a live recording on the album "Aretha in Paris" (1968).

Eric Clapton covered the song on his 2001 album Reptile.

Johnny Winter covered the song on his 2011 album Roots, featuring John Medeski (from Medeski Martin & Wood) on organ.
