It Ain't Me Babe is the first studio album by pop rock band The Turtles. It was released in October 1965 on White Whale Records.
Prior to recording, the band members required written permission from their parents due to being underage. Included on the album is original work from the band's high school performing days and their own interpretations of popular songs from other musicians. The most successful track "It Ain't Me Babe" reached #8 on the national charts.
Sundazed Records licensed the rights to the Turtles' library and has re-released most of the group's early albums.
