Written by Roy Head and Gene Kurtz, it was recorded by Head and The Traits and released on the Back Beat label in 1965. The song reached number two in the United States on both the Billboard pop and R&B charts.[1] The Beatles' "Yesterday" kept "Treat Her Right" from the number one spot on the Billboard Hot 100. Members of the Traits on this record included Johnny Clark on lead guitar, Frank Miller on Rhythm Guitar, Gene Kurtz on bass, Dan Buie on keyboards, Danny Gomez and Tommy May on tenor sax, Johnny Gibson on trumpet, and Jerry Gibson on drums. In 1965 the band signed with producer Huey Meaux[2] of Houston, who maintained a stable of record labels. "Treat Her Right" was recorded at Gold Star Studios (later known as SugarHill Recording Studios) in Houston. Issued on Don Robey's (Nov. 1, 1903 - June 16, 1975) Back Beat label, it reached #2 on both the U.S. Pop and R&B charts in 1965,[3] behind The Beatles' "Yesterday. "Treat Her Right", with its blazing horns and punchy rhythm,[4] credited to Head and bass man Gene Kurtz,[5] established Head as a prime exponent of blue-eyed soul.[6] By 1995 "Treat Her Right" had been covered by as many as 20 nationally known recording artists including the Yardbirds/Led Zeppelin legend Jimmy Page, Bruce Springsteen, Jerry Lee Lewis, Bon Jovi, British blue-eyed soul vocalist Chris Farlowe (under the title "Treat Her Good") and both Mae West and Barbara Mandrell under the title of "Treat Him Right". Even Bob Dylan, Sammy Davis Jr. and Tom Jones[7] covered it "live." Roy Head and the Traits "Just a Little Bit" and the bluesy-rockabilly hybrid, "Apple Of My Eye" also cracked the Top 40 in 1965. However, those were only minor hits in the wake of "Treat Her Right", which is estimated to have sold over four million copies worldwide, and was a featured song, along with Wilson Pickett's "Mustang Sally" and Steve Cropper's "In the Midnight Hour", in the successful 1991 motion picture, The Commitments.[8] CoversIt was independently recorded in 1971 by country singers, Billy "Crash" Craddock and Barbara Mandrell (although Mandrell's version was recorded under the title "Treat Him Right"). The song was also covered by Roy Buchanan on his Second Album in 1973. Austin, TX legendary roots-rock combo The Leroi Brothers included the song on their 1984 EP Forget About The Danger Think Of The Fun. In 1988, George Thorogood recorded the song on the album Born to Be Bad and released it as a single, and in the same year Johnny Thunders released his version on the album Copy Cats with Patti Palladin. It appeared on the 2001 album Sing Along with Los Straitjackets, by the Los Straitjackets, featuring Mark Lindsay on lead vocal. It was also covered in 2015 by Billy Gibbons and the BFG's.
