This rock song was written by Graham Gouldman and performed by the Yardbirds. It achieved chart success in March 1965, becoming their initial top ten entry across the UK, Canada, and the US. The track represented a stylistic shift away from the group's blues-oriented roots toward a more accessible pop rock style. The musical direction proved controversial within the band, leading guitarist Eric Clapton to depart shortly after its release. The song was subsequently featured on Herman's Hermits' self-titled album that same year.
