Baby Washington - Breakfast In Bed (1969)

Dusty Springfield may have recorded it first, but Baby Washington’s version may be just as good. Recorded at Muscle Shoals.

Written by Donnie Fritts (Yes that Donnie Fritts) and Eddie Hinton, Breakfast In Bed, was a country/soul classic cross over recorded by Baby Washington. The single was released on the Cotillion label in 1969.


Well I know this from the reggae originals by Lorna Bennett etc and the spin offs Skank in Bed Scotty and Lorna! and off course (Rebel MC!) It’s just Street Tuff!) we have covered elsewhere so this is a treat to hear!


Aw heck let’s revisit them anyhoo!

Lorna Bennett - Breakfast In Bed + Scotty & Lorna - Skank In Bed
