This is an overall fine original stereo U.K. pressing copy of the debut LP by the McCoys, released in 1965. Formed in Indiana, the group was led by Ohio native Rick Derringer, still going by his birth name Rick Zehringer. Their debut single, a version of "Hang on Sloopy," became a #1 national hit, and their follow-up single, a cover of "Fever" (also included on this LP), went into the top ten. The other ten tracks on the LP are a mix of covers of songs by James Brown (two) and Bob Dylan, along with blues/R&B chestnuts like "High Heel Sneakers" and "Stormy Monday," and a few tracks by the group's production team, Feldman-Goldstein-Gottehrer, aka the Strangeloves. Fun fact from the group's Wikipedia page: "Hang on Sloopy" is the official rock song of the state of Ohio.
