Description:

The sole Applejacks LP is highlighted by "Tell Me When," and hindered by quaintness and a lack of strong tunes (only one of which was a group original), limiting its worth to British Invasion obsessives for the most part. "No Time," one of several songs co-written by future Honeybus main man Pete Dello, is about the best song, with its moody melody; at their most energetic (as on "See If She Cares") they sound a bit like Gerry & the Pacemakers. The covers of '50s rock classics such as "Kansas City," "What'd I Say," and "Too Much Monkey Business" are dire, and their second single (and most well-known recording), the cover of Lennon-McCartney's "Like Dreamers Do," is not present. However, all of the tracks from the album are available on the Deram CD compilation Tell Me When, which adds both sides of the "Like Dreamers Do" single, the flip side of their third single, and their 1965 cover of Ray Davies' "I Go to Sleep," which wasn't issued by the Kinks at the time. ~ Richie Unterberger
