Back in 1963 grass was green and sex was bad (although the Searchers don`t sing about it, it`s the Kinks who do that). What the Searchers were is a bubblegum pop band. They never made a transition from teeny idols into mature musicians and aren`t particulary highly rated nowadays. That doesn`t say that this Liverpool quartet didn`t have its share of charme. Of course, they never wrote their songs because it wasn`t a typical thing to do for a bubblegum band. This record is considered a collection of songs to go with the hit single "Sugar&Spice" - a very sugary love song. Most of the songs sound as if they were the same song, but that`s certainly a thing you could expect from a band like the Searchers. There are no real flaws on this record - but it`s just not particulary good, with the songs having about zero diversity, zero surprise rating and zero resonance to me (just because its teeny bubblegum shite).
