Description: Additional Information from InnerSleeve Product Description Chad & Jeremy's first Columbia album was similar to their previous material (recorded for Ember in the U.K. and licensed by World Artists in the U.S.) in its light British Invasion pop/rock style with folky overtones. There wasn't anything here quite on the level of their previous big hits, "Yesterday's Gone" and "A Summer Song," though the orchestrated ballad "Before and After" would be their final Top 20 single. As a whole the album's a bit of a variety show, the pair proving modestly enjoyable to mediocre at a range of approaches on both originals and outside material. There's the nearly straight folk of "Fare Thee Well (I Must Be Gone)" and Gordon Lightfoot's "For Lovin' Me," more orchestrated pop/rock ballads ("I'm in Love Again," "Tell Me Baby," and a slightly inferior remake of "What Do You Want With Me," which they had already done for Ember), bouncy British Invasion pop ("Little Does She Know," "Say It Isn't True"), the Andy Williams hit "Can't Get Used to Losing You," and even a strained attempt at a British Invasion R&B rave-up ("Evil-Hearted You"). "Why Should I Care" is about the best of the original tunes, though at one point it blatantly rips off a riff from the Zombies' "She's Not There." The 2002 CD reissue on Sundazed doubles the length with an assortment of rare singles, outtakes, and alternate versions. None of these are astounding, but some of the more interesting extras include their B-side-only cover of Dino Valenti's "Pennies," which makes its CD debut; the previously unissued version of the obscure Zombies song "Sometimes"; the Italian-sung "Adesso Si" and "Nessuno Piu Di Me," a Europe-only single in 1966; and both sides of the rare 1966 Chad and Jill Stuart single (Jill Stuart was Chad Stuart's wife), which paired covers of Peter, Paul & Mary's "The Cruel War" and Bob Lind's "I Can't Talk to You." ~ Richie Unterberger About InnerSleeve We offer unbeatable prices, quick shipping times and a wide selection of vinyl.
