The album was recorded by the original members of the band as a result of their inability to access their masters or re-release their own earlier material, which had passed from the ownership of label Cameo to Allen Klein. It included all of the songs released on their first album, 96 Tears, as well as several other tracks. The rerecorded version of "96 Tears" was subsequently incorporated into compilations. BackgroundIn the 1960s, Michigan-based band ? & the Mysterians found a regional hit with the song "96 Tears", particularly popular in Texas. The song was originally released on the Pa-Go-Go label, but aggressive offers from several larger distributors resulted in their selling the master to Cameo.[2][3][4] Cameo shortened the recording and distributed the single nationally, resulting in a #1 Billboard hit.[2] The band subsequently released several singles and two albums, 96 Tears and Action, on the label. In 1968, the entire catalogue of Cameo-Parkway releases, including those by ? & the Mysterians, were purchased by Allen Klein.[5] Klein refused to permit "96 Tears" to be included on compilations or to permit their albums to be reissued,[4] so in 1997 members of the band, including its vocalist, came together after a studio recording hiatus of several decades to re-record their original songs.[2] The eponymous album was the first of two such re-recordings by the band,[1] who were subsequently able to license their new version of the song for compilations.[2] It would be October 2005 before Klein's company, ABKCO Records, would make a CD of the original releases, The Best of ? & the Mysterians: Cameo Parkway 1966-1967.[6] AlbumThe new album included all 12 tracks from the original album 96 Tears, plus an additional four. Two of the tracks, "Smokes" and "Got To", had were included on the band's second album, Action. The other two songs, "Do Something to Me" and "Make You Mine", had been released as singles in 1967 and 1968. In its review, Allmusic notes that although the album is made by the original line-up, the material doesn't sound the same as it did when first released, but adds that "the group sounds tough, dynamic, and exciting...these guys can still kick hard, which is what makes the record worthwhile for die-hard garage freaks."[1] Track listingAll songs written by Rudy Martinez, except where noted.
