This is actually a very good album by Gary Lewis, though you can't hear any Playboys on it. Then again, could you ever? Koppelman/Rubin/Klein are listed as the producers, but they are more than likely the "executive producers," while the "arrangers" are no doubt the guys who put this good-sounding disc together. Half of the dozen tunes were written by the brilliant team of Gordon/Bonner, which is a good thing, and, performance-wise, Lewis doesn't sound too bad. That means a tip of the hat must go to the real producers, Jack Nitzsche, Nick DeCaro, and Hank Levine. DeCaro handles four of the 12 titles, including the quirky Artie Kornfeld tune "A Little Love From You" (with its unique backing) and a cover of the song Jackie DeShannon released, "Me About You." The Playboys' version of "Me About You" is slow and moving, but Lewis just can't pull it off the way Davey Jones swayed hearts with "I Wanna Be Free." DeCaro also gets credit for the opening track, "Girls in Love," which just nicked the Top 40 in the middle of 1967 -- it's classic Gary Lewis. So is Levine's score on "Let's Be More Than Friends" -- this is the kind of pop tune that Lewis always hit a home run with, and it works quite well here despite its lack of chart action. Getting the majority of the tracks as part of this album's highly respected team of "arrangers," Nitzsche spins his magic on "Moonshine," "Here I Am," Bobby Darin's "Hello Sunshine," "Slow Movin' Man," and the excellent "Double Good Feeling." Gary Lewis has fun on these radio-friendly sounds, which makes for a highly listenable album of '60s pop.
