Baby Huey and the Baby Sitters had four songs released across five singles in the mid-60s. These were all cut before Huey signed to Curtom and recorded the songs issued on his great posthumous LP.
Here are the influential "Monkey Man" and a great cover of Junior Wells' "Messin with the Kid", along with a fantastic soul number, "Just Being Careful". His version of "Beg Me" isn't bad, but it's probably the weakest number on these early 45s.
Baby Huey was born James Ramey in Richmond, Indiana and formed the Babysitters in Chicago in 1963 with guitarist Johnny Ross and organ player/trumpeter Melvin "Deacon" Jones. "Monkey Man" and "Just Being Careful" were both written by John R. Ross.
The history of his early releases is somewhat confusing. Below might be a complete discography from this time period, all released in '64-'66. I'm not sure if a "Monkey Man"/"Beg Me" exists on Satellite.

In 2005 an acetate came up on auction that was supposed to be an unreleased instrumental by the group. I have no idea if it is or not, but I'll include the soundclip I saved from the auction. The tune reminds me of "Get It" by the Silvertones. If anyone has more info please get in touch.
