After launching their tenure on Philips Records with the folk collection
Born to Wander,
the Four Seasons returned only one month later with a pop album patterned after their earlier Vee Jay LPs, which is to say a set of doo wop covers filling out an album keyed to a current hit single. In this case, the hit was "Dawn (Go Away)," which would have been a number one hit if it hadn't been for
the Beatles, who had a lock on the top of the charts. Elsewhere, one got to hear
Frankie Valli's takes on such favorites as "You Send Me," "Sixteen Candles," "Breaking up Is Hard to Do," "Earth Angel," and "Do You Want to Dance." ~ William Ruhlmann
