This is the highly regarded debut album from The Grass Roots, one of California's most popular acts of the late '60s and early '70s. Featuring the original classic hit single "Where Were When I Needed You" and the blinding garage punk reworking of Dylan's "Ballad Of A Thin Man". All of the original material was composed and produced by the legendary songwriting duo P F Sloan and Steve Barri so 100% prime US folk-rock jangle with gorgeous vocal arrangements is guaranteed. This is the first of a series of Grass Roots reissues and the first instalment of Rev-Ola records' excavation of the great Dunhill Records label! This fantastic release also features in-depth liner notes by Shindig! Magazine's Jon 'Mojo' Mills explaining the band's convoluted origins. Only When You're Lonely / Look Out Girl / Ain't That Loving You Baby / I've Got No More To Say / I Am A Rock / Lollipop Train (You Never Had It So Good) / Where Were You When I Needed You / You Didn't Have To Be So Nice / Tell Me / You Baby / This Is What I Was Made For / Ballad Of A Thin Man Bonus tracks: Where Were You When I Needed You (single version) / (These Are) Bad Times / You're A Lonely Girl / Tip Of My Tongue / You've Got To Hide Your Love Away / Hitch Hike / Eve Of Destruction / Where Were You When I Needed You (third version)
