ORIGINAL 1966 LP STILL SEALED
Parrot Records - PA 61008 (MONO)
*********************************************************
Them was a Northern Irish band formed in Belfast in April 1964, most prominently known for the garage rock standard " Gloria" and launching singer Van Morrison's musical career. The group was marketed in the United States as part of the British Invasion.
The band featured Van Morrison on vocals and harmonica, Billy Harrison on guitar (born William Harrison, 14 October 1942, in Belfast, County Antrim, Northern Ireland), Eric Wrixon on piano and keyboards (Wrixon named the band, but never played on any published albums or toured the States), Alan Henderson on bass (born 26 November 1944, in Belfast), Raymond Sweetman on bass (born Dermot Robert Sweetman, 1 January 1948, in Holyhead, Anglesey, North Wales) and Ronnie Millings on drums (born in 1937, in Belfast), with other musicians replacing or contributing during the life of the band. Henderson was the only constant member of the band from inception through their 1972 breakup and 1979 reunion.
Them Again is the second album by the Northern Irish band, Them, whose lead singer and songwriter was Van Morrison. The album was released by Decca Records in the UK on January 21, 1966 but it failed to chart. In the U.S. it was released in April 1966 where it peaked at #138 on the Billboard charts.Two of the original Van Morrison songs included on the album, " My Lonely Sad Eyes" and " Hey Girl", can be seen as precursors to the poetic musings of Morrison's later Astral Weeks album, released in 1968. " My Lonely Sad Eyes" begins with the words, " Fill me my cup, and I'll drink your sparkling wine/Pretend that everything is fine, 'til I see your sad eyes." The title implies that the sad eyes belong to the singer but the lyrics address the singer's love interest. The song " Hey Girl" has a pastoral feel to it, enhanced by the addition of flutes and in Brian Hinton's opinion is a " dry run for 'Cyprus Avenue '" from Astral Weeks. The cover version of Bob Dylan's " It's All Over Now, Baby Blue" , is considered by author Clinton Heylin to be "that genuine rarity, a Dylan cover to match the original. Among the Van Morrison originals and cover versions found on the album, three of producer Tommy Scott's original compositions are also included.
