Which English musician wrote a song to pay tribute to the founder and front man of the Motown vocal group the Miracles?
Ooh Baby (You Know That I Love You) "Ooh Baby (You Know That I Love You)" is a song by English musician George Harrison, released in 1975 on his album "Extra Texture (Read All About It)". Harrison wrote the composition as a tribute to American singer Smokey Robinson, whom he often identified as one of his favourite vocalists and songwriters. The song was intended as a companion piece to Robinson's 1965 hit with the Miracles, "Ooo Baby Baby", and its inclusion on "Extra Texture" contributed to that album's standing as Harrison's soul music album. His impersonation of Robinson's celebrated vocal style on the track, including portions sung in falsetto, contrasted with Harrison's hoarse, laryngitis-marred singing on his 1974 North American tour and the poorly received "Dark Horse" album.
Give Me Just Another Day "Give Me Just Another Day" (T54240F) is a song written by Leon Ware and released as a single in 1973 by Motown R&B group The Miracles, issued on that label's Tamla Records subsidiary. It was the first single release from the group's upcoming album, "Do It Baby", which was released the following year.
