"There Goes My Baby" is a song written by Ben E. King (Benjamin Nelson), Lover Patterson, George Treadwell and produced by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller for The Drifters.[2][3] This was the first single by the second incarnation of the Drifters (previously known as the 5 Crowns), who assumed the group name in 1958 after manager George Treadwell fired the remaining members of the original lineup. The Atlantic Records release was King's debut recording as the lead singer of the group.

History

Leiber and Stoller used a radically different approach to production than Ahmet Ertegun and Jerry Wexler had employed with the original Clyde McPhatter-led Drifters. The combination of new style and new group fit, and the song reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100, behind A Big Hunk o' Love by Elvis Presley.[3] "There Goes My Baby also hit number one on the Billboard R&B chart.[4] On the Cash Box sales chart, it likewise went to number one for two weeks, in the summer of 1959. The violin string arrangement was written by Belford "Sinky" Hendricks, a classically trained African-American musician, who helped elevate the careers of many musicians by writing arrangements for songs, giving voice lessons, and conducting orchestras during recording sessions. Other string arrangements written for "The Drifters" by Belford Hendricks include "Save the Last Dance for Me", "Under the Boardwalk", "This Magic Moment" and "Stand By Me". All became hit singles.

Song

The lyrics are loosely structured, almost free-form at a time when rhyming lines were mandatory. The accompaniment features a violin section playing saxophone-like riffs in rock and roll style. The lead voice is in high gospel-style.[5]

(There goes my baby) Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh

(There goes my baby) Yeah, yeah, yeah,yeah

(There goes my baby) Whoa-oh-oh-oh

(There she goes) Yeah! (There she goes)[6]

Legacy

This recording introduced the idea of using strings, a Brazilian baion and elaborate production values[6] on an R&B recording to enhance the emotional power of black music. This pointed the way to the coming era of soul music as the popularity of the doo-wop vocal groups peaked and faded. Phil Spector studied this production model under Leiber and Stoller.[7]

  • In 2010, the song is ranked #196 on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.[8] The song has been covered by many artists, including Jay and the Americans.
  • The song was included in the musical revue "Smokey Joe's Cafe".

Donna Summer's version of "There Goes My Baby" was the first single from her 1984 album Cats Without Claws. The single became a moderate hit, peaking at #21 on the US Hot 100, and in the top twenty of the US R&B chart. It also peaked #15 in Spain Radio chart.[11]Summer's version of this song features an electro-pop sound and was accompanied by a high-quality music video featuring Summer and husband Bruce Sudano as a down-on-their-luck couple at the outbreak of World War II. The video was played in heavy rotation on the MTV network, showing MTV's continued support of Summer as an artist. With this single, Summer earned her nineteenth - and second to last - US Top 40 hit.
