JILL HARRIS - BABY, WON'T YOU TRY ME

Spoiler alert! At 1:47, one of the coolest "middle 8" sections of a song I've ever heard happens; pure GENIUS!!! Producer Robert Bateman obviously knew it as well, as the section repeats at the outro.

Bateman certainly had an ear for female vocalists; he was an early producer at Motown and counts the Marvelous Marvelettes among his discoveries. Jill Harris has a MASSIVE voice, and it's a pity that she only released two singles before fading into obscurity.

It has been said that Dee Dee and Dionne Warwick are singing the (glorious) backups here.

from 1964...
