On 13th August 1964, The Supremes recorded “Baby Love”, written and produced by Motown's main production team Holland–Dozier–Holland. The song went on to be the group's first UK No.1 and second US chart topper.
It was also the second of five Supremes songs in a row to go to No.1 in the United States. The song was recorded for their second studio album, “Where Did Our Love Go”.
Baby Love topped the Billboard pop singles chart in the United States from 25th October, through 21st November, 1964, and in the United Kingdom pop singles chart concurrently. Beginning with "Baby Love," The Supremes became the first Motown act to have more than one American No.1 single, and by the end of the decade, would have more No.1 singles than any other Motown act (or American pop music group) with 12, a record they continue to hold.
It was nominated for the 1965 Grammy Award for Best Rhythm & Blues Recording, losing to Nancy Wilson's "How Glad I Am". Considered one of the most popular songs of the late 20th century, "Baby Love" was ranked No.324 on the Rolling Stone list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
