The Critters

Touch'n Go With The Critters

Very Rare original US LP released  on Project 3 Records in 1968. 1st US pressing, comes in a glossy sleeve.

The Free Design weren't the only  revered sunshine pop group to record for Enoch Light s Project 3 Records! The  Critters famous for the hits Mr. Dieingly Sad and Younger Girl cut two brilliant  but criminally obscure soft psychedelic LPs for the celebrated New York-based  label. In 1966, this New Jersey group came off very much like a Lovin' Spoonful  Jr., scoring a minor hit with a cover of John Sebastian's "Younger Girl" and  then chalking up their only Top 20 single with the very Spoonful-esque original  "Mr. Dieingly Sad." The group's soft harmonies and pop folk-rock were in a  considerably lighter vein than their Kama Sutra labelmates, though. Much of  their material was self-penned, though they also benefited from compositions by  Jackie DeShannon and Brill Building tunesmiths Pete Anders, Vinnie Poncia, and  Doc Pomus. Recording quite a few singles and an LP for Kama Sutra from 1965 to  1967, their gentle pop/rock was rather lightweight, with the exception of their  best singles. After a final Top 40 hit in 1967 ("Don't Let the Rain Fall Down on  Me"), principal songwriter Don Ciccone was drafted, and the group struggled on  with a couple albums for the Project 3 label before splitting.
