Aerosmith reached way back for "Baby, Please Don't Go" on Honkin' on Bobo. It's a traditional blues that the Delta bluesman Big Joe Williams made popular in 1935, and it has been played and rearranged by so many hands since that it now sits in both the Blues and the Rock and Roll Halls of Fame.
The band's take was produced by Joe Perry and Steven Tyler together with Marti Frederiksen, who also recorded and mixed it, with Paul Caruso and Paul Santo assisting on the sessions. Rock bands have been lining up to take a swing at this one for generations, and here Aerosmith step up to the plate themselves.
