About The Record:

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 No. 1 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.
