The Dave Clark Five - The Best Of The Dave Clark Five
Review by Sharon Hurley Hall
The Best Of The Dave Clark Five is a timeless album that showcases the iconic British rock band's greatest hits. From the opening track "Glad All Over" to the closing track "Everybody Knows," the album is a non-stop journey of infectious melodies, catchy hooks, and energetic performances.
Listeners will be transported back to the 1960s, a time when The Dave Clark Five ruled the airwaves with their signature sound that blended rock, pop, and R&B. The album features classic tracks such as "Bits and Pieces," "Catch Us If You Can," and "Because," which remain as popular today as they were when they were first released.
What makes this album particularly special is the remastered sound quality, which enhances the band's dynamic performances and crisp instrumentals. The album is a must-have for fans of classic rock, and it serves as a perfect introduction to new listeners who want to explore the music of one of the most influential bands of the 1960s.

Notes
- "MFD UNDER LICENCE BY STUDIO B IN YUGOSLAVIA" and "MADE IN GT BRITAIN" on labels but this is a Yugoslav, Studio B release, mastered and manufactured in Yugoslavia (probably by PGP RTB). Starline logo appears on front and together with its catalogue number on back cover but it is because Studio B took the original catalogue number over and the cover and label designs are almost completely taken over from the UK reissue with only necessary changes (replacing REGAL logo on back cover, Starline logo on labels and adding Studio B and printing company logo and text).
- In the front cover, there's a printed red square on the top left corner, where there were the EMI and REGAL logos.
- The track A3 name is misspelled, "Rer Balloon" instead of "Red Balloon".
- STEMRA
- Back cover:
- EMIDISC is a product of EMI-Group Companies issued in Germany by Electrola GmbH., Köln, in Netherlands by N.V. Bovema, Heemstede.

- Issued in a front-laminated sleeve with flipbacks at rear with text stating: 'File under Popular Pop Groups' at the top; '7010 TPS Printed and made by Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd. Patent No. 943,835 SRS 5037' at the bottom.
- All tracks in true stereo!
- In 1963 a new name, a knock out song and a pop legend was born - The Dave Clark Five and 'Glad All Over'. This legend is still topping the charts all over the world and this LP contains 14 of Dave's biggest hits covering the period 1963 to 1968. Not only does Dave perform and produce his hit songs, but also writes most of them, a true phenomena in this mad pop world where one month an artist tops the charts and the next he is forgotten. Dave's success was also projected in the box-office smash film - 'Catch us if you can'; this alone is good enough reason for the inclusion of this title on this album.
- The tracks in this collection represent over 14 million world sales and are a must for every Dave Clark fan or just anyone who appreciates good music. - Mort Lindford
- Issued in a front-laminated sleeve. Blue labels with slightly different label design compared to the pressing of the same cat. numbers.

I got my dad to get me a Vox Continental keyboard like the one played by Mike Smith. Man that keyboard was beautiful! I fell in love. I always liked The DC 5. Too bad time takes hold of us and puts us in the ground. There's at least 3 that are gone. RIP Guys!!

The competition for these guys were the Beatles, Stones, the Animals to name a few. I grew up listening to all of them. They held their own, Mike was great singer, he was bluesy.
