Love's cover of "Be My Baby" originates from July 1980 sessions produced by (and featuring keyboards by) his Beach Boys bandmate and cousin Brian Wilson.[3][4] However, the released track features additional overdubs and production completed without Wilson, and Curt Boettcher receives the sole production credit.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
Critical reception
The Rolling Stone Album Guide called the album "notable only for its title track: an egregious 'salute' to those crazy ol' '60s that would probably make a dandy Republican campaign jingle."[5]
