Background
After their single "Little Girl" rose up the charts to the number 8 position in summer of 1966, the Syndicate of Sound entered the studio to record an album. By the time of the album recording, Larry Ray had been replaced on lead guitar by Jim Sawyers. Half of the songs were penned by the group themselves, the remaining were covers from artists as diverse as The Hollies, The Sonics, Chuck Berry and Roy Orbison. John Sharkey has stated that each of the band members picked a song to cover and then they added "Big Boss Man", which was a regular part of their set-list. The album session also produced their follow-up single "Rumors", which peaked at number 55 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts on October 1, 1966.[2]
