Singles from American Tour | ||||
American Tour contains the hit song "Because", as well as "Whenever You're Around", which was not a single in the U.S. but was issued as a B-side to "I'm Thinking of You Baby" in the U.K., and was used in the film Get Yourself a College Girl (1964). In Canada, the album was released by Capitol Records as On Stage with The Dave Clark Five. The album reached No. 11 on the Billboard 200 album chart and No. 16 in Cashbox. The album has not been released in the UK.
In his AllMusic retrospective review of the release, Greg Adams wrote, "The mixture of jazzy chords, straight-ahead rock, and saxophone (which was pretty passé in 1964) is an interesting one, making the group less enigmatic than the Zombies and more obviously rooted in earlier rock traditions than the Beatles."[2]
