The album was masterminded by label owner Randy Wood who had released some of the Beatles first records in the US when he was running the Vee-Jay label. Produced by Marshall Lieb who had been a member of the Teddy Bears, (the trio that included Phil Spector when they scored the #1 hit 'To Know Him Is to Love Him'). He is joined in the back room by engineer David Hassinger who engineered most of the Stones' big hits of the mid-60s.
