Subsequent Performances
The duo's television performances of the song at the time tended to undermine its more serious side, with both Sonny and Cher doing some stage mugging. This followed the comic conceit they were known for and would embellish even more on the rest of their career.
The song missed being on a first couple of Sonny & Cher compilation albums due to contractual issues, but then was included in 1972's The Two of Us. It later appeared on the 1991 The Beat Goes On: The Best of Sonny & Cher, as well as the 2003 The Very Best of Cher, the 2005 Gold, and the 2006 The Definitive Pop Collection.
Cher performed the song as part of a Sonny & Cher medley on her 2002–2005 Living Proof: The Farewell Tour. In this form it appeared on Cher's 2003 video documentary The Farewell Tour.
During the 2010s, "Baby Don't Go" has been a popular selection on the '60s on 6 channel of Sirius XM Radio.

Famous quotes containing the words subsequent and/or performances:
“And he smiled a kind of sickly smile, and curled up on the floor, And the subsequent proceedings interested him no more.”
—Francis Bret Harte (1836–1902)
“At one of the later performances you asked why they called it a “miracle,”
Since nothing ever happened. That, of course, was the miracle
But you wanted to know why so much action took on so much life
And still managed to remain itself, aloof, smiling and courteous.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
