In the early eighties, funk band Lakeside had already established itself as one of the most dependable acts in the psychedelic pop genre, with releases such as their self-titled album in 1977 and 1978’s Top 10 album, Shot of Love. After releasing their chart-topping hit “Fantastic Voyage,” the group decided to follow it up with a cover version. They adapted the classic Beatles song “I Want to Hold Your Hand” into their style, switching up the song’s rhythm considerably and making it into a soul ballad. “I Want to Hold Your Hand” was originally written by the duo of Lennon and McCartney, but Lakeside’s arrangement of it emphasized the longing, yearning element in the song’s lyrics, with a production that feels at once soulful and psychedelic. Lakeside’s version of “I Want to Hold Your Hand” was produced by the band itself, and it became another success for the group, hitting the Top 10 of the R&B charts and continuing their string of hits.
