‘She’s My Baby’ is the opening song on Traveling Wilburys Vol. 3.
It was the lead single released from the album, on 5 November 1990. Gary Moore played lead guitar, using the pseudonym Ken Wilbury.
That’s Ken Wilbury. I hope he’s listening in. Now Ken Wilbury, you’re a very naughty boy. You didn’t play on the video, but we love him anyway. He’s an excellent guitar player.
BBC Radio 1, 25 October 1990
The 7″ single had ‘New Blue Moon’ (Instrumental) on the b-side, while the CD single added a third track, a cover of Del Shannon’s ‘Runaway’.
Gary [Moore] was friends with George at the time, that’s how he got invited in. Of course, I know him as well a little bit and he was a really nice guy. And we just got him in because we were working at George’s house and he lived not far away at the time. He just came in one day and overdubbed his guitar.
