I know that "Save The Children" was first done by Marvin Gaye and it appeared on his 1971 album, What's Going On. I'm not sure who did "Brown Baby" first. She did an average job with her cover of Save The Children, but I still prefer Marvin's version since he did co-write it and had much more emotion and feeling...
