"%22Baby Let Me Take You Home%22, a song credited to Bert Russell (a.k.a. Bert Berns) and Wes Farrell, was The Animals' debut single, released in 1964. In the UK, it reached #21 on the pop singles chart. In the U.S. its B-side, %22Gonna Send You Back to Walker%22 (retitled %22to Georgia%22), was released but was not a significant hit, placing only at #57 on the pop singles chart. American soul singer Hoagy Lands previously recorded the song in 1964 as %22Baby Let Me Hold Your Hand%22, released on Atlantic 2217.The song is an arrangement of Eric Von Schmidt's rendering of %22Baby, Let Me Follow You Down%22 as covered by Bob Dylan, on his first, self-titled, album. The Animals' version opens with striking unaccompanied guitar arpeggios, inserts a middle section with spoken words over an organ riff and closes with a frantic double-time coda. The result was a key influence on Dylan's change to electric music and to the folk-rock genre.In 2006, Eric Burdon, of The Animals, began to perform the song in a heavier version, on his concerts again, adding a short story how they came to it." .
