}}"Take Me Bak 'Ome" is a song by the British rock band Slade, released in 1972 as a non-album single. It was written by lead vocalist Noddy Holder and bassist Jim Lea, and produced by Chas Chandler. It reached No. 1 in the UK, giving the band their second number one single, and remained in the charts for thirteen weeks.[2] The song was certified UK Silver by BPI in 1972.[3][4] In the United States, the song reached No. 97.[5] The song would be included on the band's 1973 compilation album Sladest.[6]

Background

After achieving their breakthrough hit with "Get Down and Get With It" in 1971, Slade would continue to achieve further success with their follow-up singles "Coz I Luv You" and "Look Wot You Dun", and the live album Slade Alive!. In May 1972, the band released "Take Me Bak' Ome", which reached No. 1 in the UK and was a hit across Europe and beyond.[7] In the United States, the song was the band's chart debut on the Billboard Hot 100, where it reached No. 97.[8]

Shortly after the single's release, Slade played at the Great Western Festival near Lincoln.[9] Before their performance, the band had fears over whether or not they could win over the 50,000-strong crowd. Now deemed a 'pop band', the announcement of their imminent appearance on the stage was met with outbreaks of booing from the audience. However, the band triumphed at the festival, the music press praised the performance and "Take Me Bak 'Ome" went on to reach No. 1 at the beginning of July.[10] In a 1972 interview with Sounds, guitarist Dave Hill described the song as a "live, earth-dirt song". He said: "I felt much more out of that than I did from all the rest, it projected more, and it wasn't just a hit record. I didn't know if that kind of song could make it, and it was great having a thick, dirty song up at number one."

"Take Me Bak 'Ome" was the next single after "Coz I Luv You" to be written by the band's successful Holder/Lea songwriting partnership. In the band's 1984 biography Feel the Noize!, Lea recalled: ""Take Me Bak 'Ome" was an old song I'd had kicking around for ages. I re-vamped it a bit and nicked a phrase or two from The Beatles' "Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except Me and My Monkey". Nobody ever noticed."[11] During the recording of the song, Holder ab-libbed over the riff in the middle of the song. Lea suggested he change the ab-libs after the original one gave him the idea for the band's next single "Mama Weer All Crazee Now".[12]

Release

"Take Me Bak 'Ome" was released on 7" vinyl by Polydor Records in the UK, Ireland, across Europe, Scandinavia, Turkey, America, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Mexico, Israel, Lebanon, Singapore and Japan.[13][14] The B-side, "Wonderin' Y", was exclusive to the single and would appear on the band's 2007 compilation B-Sides.

Promotion

No music video was filmed to promote the single. In the UK, the band performed the song on the music show Top of the Pops and 2Gs and the Pop People. In 1973, the song was performed on the Dutch show Popgala.[15]

Critical reception

Upon release, Record Mirror described the song as a "riff-based number" and commented on Holder's "strident, straight-through-a-brick-wall voice". They concluded: "Powerful and rocking - and their best yet for me".[16] New Musical Express said the song was a "strong rocker", showing the "power and punch the band proudly sports" in comparison to the previous two singles.[17] In a retrospective song review by AllMusic, Dave Thompson said: "Neither of its predecessors, "Coz I Luv You" or "Look Wot You Dun," had attempted to capture the feel of Slade in full flight. Holder and Jim Lea's "Take Me Bak 'Ome" was custom-built to relieve that deficiency."[18]
