I GOT YOU BABE
“I Got You Babe” is a song by the American pop music duo Sonny & Cher and the first single from their first album Look at Us. In August 1965, the single spent three weeks at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States where it sold more than 1 million copies and was certified Gold. It also reached #1 in the United Kingdom and Canada. The song was featured as one of the greatest duets of all times by both Billboard and Rolling Stone magazine. It also placed at #444 on Rolling Stone’s list of the 500 Greatest Songs of all time. (More from Wikipedia)
Hacienda has two albums on Alive Records to their credit, Loud is the Night (2008) and Big Red and Barbacoa (2010). The first album includes a lovely cover of one of Sonny and Cher’s earliest hits, “Baby Don’t Go” – “Baby Don’t Go” was actually released before the duo’s signature hit “I Got You Babe” just after they stopped recording under the name Caesar and Cleo.
