Animal Tracks is the Animals` third album in the United States, released as both LP Record and reel-to-reel tape.[3] Musically, it was a hodge-podge of the group`s recent hit singles mixed in with tracks of assorted vintage that had not been included on either of The Animals` first two U.S. albums. As such it bore little resemblance in content or purpose to the band`s British release also named Animal Tracks from four months earlier. "The Story of Bo Diddley" is an adaptation and expansion of a song recorded by Bo Diddley in 1960, utilizing some of the original lyrics but with additional verses and melody recapping the musician`s life in a talking blues style.
