I Like It Like That is an album by Motown group the Miracles, compiled for the UK market and released on the UK Tamla-Motown label as one of its initial group of six albums in March 1965.

This album featured a combination of several new songs along with previously issued material from the group's album from the year before, The Miracles Doin' Mickey's Monkey. New songs included "I Like It Like That" (the Top 30 song, not the better-known Chris Kenner song of the same name), the Bobby Rogers-led flip side "You're So Fine and Sweet", "That's What Love Is Made Of" (another 1964 hit that the group performed on the American International Pictures release, the T.A.M.I. Show that year), and "Would I Love You", a song that became a popular regional hit tune for the group in Pennsylvania and The Midwest. The album also featured a Claudette Robinson-led cover version of the Orlons' number 2 Pop smash, "The Wah-Watusi" and the group's 1963 Top 40 Hit, "I Gotta Dance to Keep From Crying". Several of the group's other 1964 songs, including the chart hits "(You Can't Let the Boy Overpower) The Man in You", "Come On Do the Jerk", and its B-side, "Baby Don't You Go", were not included.

The 1964 recordings "I Like It Like That", "Would I Love You" and "That's What Love Is Made Of" were also included on the Miracles' 1965 album release, The Miracles Greatest Hits From The Beginning, which was the first double album released by Motown Records.[citation needed]
