"Take Good Care of My Baby" is a song written by Carole King and Gerry Goffin and made famous by Bobby Vee, when it was released in 1961. It quickly became popular, reaching #1 on the U.S. ''Billboard'' Hot 100 in September. The song is noted for being incredibly similar in musical structure to "Happy Birthday Sweet Sixteen" by Neil Sedaka. ==Covers & Answers== The song was covered by The Beatles during their audition at Decca Records on January 1, 1962. Dion also recorded a version, though it was not released as a single. Gary Lewis & The Playboys recorded a cover version in 1965 on their ''She's Just My Style'' album. In 1968, it became a hit again, this time for Bobby Vinton, but his version reached only #33 on the U.S. ''Billboard'' Hot 100 in comparison. Vee re-recorded the song as a ballad in 1973 on his album ''Ain't Nothing Like a Sunny Day'' (released under his real name, Robert Thomas Velline). However, it's his original version, along with Vinton's, that remain as staples of oldies radio stations. musicians on the record included Barney Kessell, Tommy Allsup, and Howard Roberts on guitar, Clifford Hills on bass, Robert Florence on piano, Earl Palmer on drums, Elliot Fisher, Leonard Malarsky, Sid Sharp, Tibor Zelig, Isreal Baker and Lou Raderman on violins, Ralph Schaffer and Harry Hymas on cellos Alexander Neiman and Wilbert Nuttycombe on viola. It has also been covered by for instance Smokie (Solid Ground, 1981), Micky Dolenz, and German Pop Star Sasha (Dick Brave and the Backbeats, 2003).
