Small Faces - Baby Don't You Do It Lyrics

First time I have heard this version. Verdict. Pretty darn good. Marvin's version. A lot funkier and pretty darn good. But nothing compares to The Band's version. Levon's vocals are sublime, gritty, raw, just the way the song should be sung and played.
What is known as a masterpiece.

Marvin Gaye original version is still the best and always will!

The Small Faces "From the Beginning" album also featured their stage favourite "Baby Don't You Do It", featuring Jimmy Winston on lead vocals and guitar. (Wikipedia)

This is punk.

I love jimmy winston singing this number !!!!

Pretty sure it's Ronnie Lane on vocals/

It's Jimmy Winston.

This is definitely not Steve Mariott  on vocals

Marvin Gaye's version is the template, The Who's is better than this, but the Faces were brilliant!

@Tad Baranski Levon Helm

+Tad Baranski Your so wrong ! I love the Who and mr Gaye but Jimmy Winston and The Small Faces rock this song out with SOUL !!! DIG IT ?

The Who's live version with Keith is one of their best!

Leslie West sells that song with The Who!@Lawrence Frauens

The Band live '71 is the best performance of this song that ever was or ever will be. This is cool too though

Jimmy Winston sings on this, yes? 

I believe so, Jack.  

Ya'll must be racist, yo.

@zetsusama23 So, I'm confused, what are you saying then? That you agree or disagree with what I say?

@Khultan there's not much of an age difference? according to wikipedia (ha, sorry), jimmy winston was born in 1945. i know that steve was born in 1947. so.

I admit, Jimmy Winston, has a voice all his own. But, I think, their age difference might've played a factor in his ousting.

@Mind4Mud The Black Crowes version IS the Band's version - played inferiorly!

One of the best bands EVER! I was 15 when i've heard the Small Faces first time. That was about 45 years ago. There was NOT one week passed during these years when I didn't hear any of their songs. SF is teh #1 for me. Period.

@chassy10 thought jimmy winston was keyboardist for the band. im sure its marriot that did the vocals for it

I'm with mattjohnkearney......The Band's version is funky to me. When they do it live...whooo....nothing like hearing Levon Helm's voice.

@Khultan But since the lead is Jimmy, the vocals could be Ronnie and Steve and maybe Kenny.

@klitzhoff Ronnie Lane, I would think.

@chassy10 Yeah, I found out what he did.

@TheNinetySecond I don't believe that myth.

Woooooohhhh!! : )

thanks for posting this track - didn't know they covered Marvin Gaye

Still like the Band's version...slow and chunky

I like the Who's cover of this they did live in 1971 best of all!

british blue beat? blue beat is ska, mate. unless you're talking about the 2tone groups. @princeofthemods69

@MotownConnoisseur30 I truly agree with you - Marvin's version of Baby Don't You Do It is off the chain!!!

@nolester I beg to differ. Marvin's original is best of all versions

love tjhat cheezy organ sound. yeah. don't do it.

Good God, these guys are just TOO underrated. In every way, just amazing stuff.

Wow, the Small Faces do Motown real well !

you know what I mean

cheers FrozenLad!!
I knew Marvin did a version, its killer, but I don't know if he was the 'original' Original ykwm!!
