Overview

Reprise issued the album to capitalise on the nationwide publicity generated by the band's February 1965 appearance on the musical variety programme Hullabaloo.[3] The album had no direct analogue outside of the US market, but instead collected songs from the UK EP Kinksize Session, two songs which had been left off of the US version of the band's debut LP ("Revenge" and "I'm a Lover Not a Fighter") and both the A- and B-sides of the "All Day and All of the Night" and "Tired of Waiting for You" singles.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found. All of its songs were recorded at Pye Studios in London, between August and December 1964, though Dave Davies also overdubbed an electric guitar contribution to "Tired of Waiting for You" at IBC Studios in London.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found.

The album has been critiqued as a clear cash-grab by Reprise, but the actual songs included have been praised as "the best parts of the group's work in England", with Bruce Eder of AllMusic writing, "this record rocks, showing off the better sides of the group's R&B output and early, formative, Beatles-influenced experiments as well."[4]
