The Dave Clark Five Return!

The Dave Clark Five Return! is the second US studio album by the English rock band the Dave Clark Five. It features the single "Can't You See That She's Mine" and covers of "Rumble" by Link Wray & His Wray Men, "On Broadway" by The Drifters and the Disney song "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah".

All of the tracks were taken from the DC5's first UK album, A Session with The Dave Clark Five. LP was released in both mono (LN 24104) and electronic stereo (BN 26104) version. The album was produced by Adrian Clark, a pseudonym combining the names of Dave Clark and engineer Adrian Kerridge.

Reception

In his AllMusic retrospective review of the release, Bruce Eder wrote, "Aside from the hit 'Can't You See That She's Mine,' and everything is filler, whether the covers of 'Rumble,' 'Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah,' and 'On Broadway,' or trite, diddling originals, including a flight into a near-Muzak instrumental ("Theme Without a Name"). Among the originals, 'I Need You, I Love You' and 'Forever and a Day' aren't too bad, but you're best off leaving this in the bin of overpriced collector items in which you'll probably find the record."
