Personnel

British singer Chris Farlowe recorded a version of "Ride On, Baby", produced by Mick Jagger, which was released in October 1966, almost 9 months before the Rolling Stones version. Despite the success of its predecessor "Out of Time", which reached number one, "Ride On Baby" did not even breach the top twenty, peaking at number 31 for two weeks in late 1966. It became his penultimate single release to reach the top 40, the later being "Handbags and Gladrags" in 1967. The track is included on his album The Art of Chris Farlowe.
