The Supremes: Back In My Arms Again - The Mike Douglas Show 1965 (My "Stereo Studio Sound" Re-Edit)
The Supremes: Back In My Arms Again - The Mike Douglas Show 1965 (My "Stereo Studio Sound" Re-Edit)
"Back in My Arms Again" was the last of five Supremes songs in a row to go number one (the others are "Where Did Our Love Go", "Baby Love", "Come See About Me", and "Stop! In the Name of Love"). The song's middle eight is almost identical to a later Holland-Dozier-Holland hit, The Isley Brothers "This Old Heart of Mine (Is Weak for You)".
On the album in which this single appeared, More Hits by the Supremes, and on the official single, each member is pictured separately on the front cover, with her signature above it.
The Supremes performed the song on The Mike Douglas Show, a syndicated daytime program, on May 5, 1965, and again on November 3. They performed the song nationally on the NBC variety program Hullabaloo! on Tuesday, May 11, 1965, peaking on the music charts in the following weeks.
Billboard said that "Back in My Arms Again" has "a strong teen lyric and a powerful vocal performance pitted against a hard rock backing in full support." Cash Box described it as "a rollicking, pop-r&b romancer about a lucky lass who gets back with her boyfriend after quite a hiatus." Record World chose it as one of their "Single Picks of the Week," stating that the Supremes are "unbeatable." Allmusic critic Ed Hogan called the rhythm section provided by the Funk Brothers "tight," the saxophone played by Mike Terry "rollicking" and the vibraphone played by James Gitten "dreamy."
