Make Me Your Baby

"Make Me Your Baby" is a song written by Helen Miller and Roger Atkins which was a hit for Barbara Lewis in 1965. The demo for "Make Me Your Baby" was cut by journeyman session singer Jean Thomas on 22 January 1965 at the behest of Atlantic Records president Jerry Wexler, who wanted to offer the song to Patti LaBelle and the Bluebelles, then a Cameo-Parkway act Wexler was hoping to woo over to Atlantic. Patti Labelle and the Bluebelles did eventually sign to Atlantic but only after protracted negotiations - their debut label session being on October 7, 1965 - which meant "Make Me Your Baby" was still unrecorded in the summer of 1965 when the success of "Baby I'm Yours" alerted Wexler to the suitability of "Make Me Your Baby" as a vehicle for singer of "Baby I'm Yours": Barbara Lewis.
