Baby, Come Back

From Wikipedia:

“Baby, Come Back” is a song by English band the Equals from their 1967 album Unequalled Equals. Written by Eddy Grant, the song was originally released as a B-side in 1966 and was later released as a single in continental Europe before being released as a single in the UK in 1968. “Baby, Come Back” charted in multiple countries, including number 1 on the Belgian, Rhodesian and UK charts in 1967 and 1968.

The song has influences from Motown and ska. In the 1990s, Pato Banton and London Boys recorded cover versions of “Baby, Come Back” that were hits in their own right; Banton’s version reached number 1 on the UK Singles Chart in 1994. […]

On January 13, 1969, during the “Get Back” sessions, a discussion on the bands The Love Affair and The Equals led Paul McCartney to sing a couple of lines of the Equals’ “Baby, Come Back.“
