The title song is a decent cover of The Four Seasons' 1964 original hit.
The Tremeloes (with Brian Poole in the group at the time) auditioned for Decca UK on Jan. 1, 1962. The same day there was a certain 4-piece band from Liverpool auditioning for the label. The Tremeloes got a contract with Decca and The Beatles were rejected.
Formed in 1958, The Tremeloes is still active, but Munden is the only original member left in the group.
