<Tr> <Th> Label </Th> <Td> Revilot </Td> </Tr> <Tr> <Th> Songwriter (s) </Th> <Td> Donnie Elbert, Darrell Banks </Td> </Tr> <P> "Open the Door to Your Heart" is a song and single by American soul singer, Darrell Banks . Written by Banks and Donnie Elbert, it was first released in 1966 . It has been described as "one of the finest non-Motown releases to emerge from Detroit". </P> <P> Released in the US in 1966 on the Revilot label, the song made number two on the R&B charts and number 27 on the Billboard charts in 1966 and was Banks' biggest hit . Based on chart positions throughout the year, it ranked 14th in a list of top R&B singles for 1966 . Although written by Banks' friend, Donnie Elbert, and called "Baby, Walk Right In" as a working title, Banks completed the recording and changed its name, while Elbert was on tour . When released, writing credits were given to Banks on the record label . Having checking with Broadcast Music, Inc., a performing rights organization, Elbert discovered that a song clearance form submitted by Banks had him listed as the sole writer which would entitle him to 100% of performance income . Elbert sought legal action and although initial releases of the vinyl 45rpm single list only Banks' name as songwriter, later released CDs credit both Banks and Elbert . Never content with the ruling, Elbert claimed that for a 50% share of writing credits Banks' contribution was to slightly speed up the tempo . Not considered to be a songwriter, "Open the Door to Your Heart" is the only song which Banks wrote but as Elbert claimed, he played no part in the writing . The B side was "Our Love (Is in the Pocket)" written by George Clinton, Joanne Jackson and Rose Marie McCoy . This was another favourite of the northern soul scene when covered by J.J. Barnes . </P>

Who sang open the door to your heart
