Outsiders - Time Won't Let Me (1966)

The Outsiders were a group of rock 'n' rollers from Cleveland, Ohio. Their first full release comes with their big hit, Time Won't Let Me. It's a Motown infused garage rock tune with horns & bass a'plenty. They wrote four other tracks on this LP that are more on the 50's pop driven side of things. What Makes You So Bad, You Weren't Brought Up That Way might be the best of them, with the use of an harmonica. The rest of the album is filled with covers of popular bands like Herman's Hermits, Buddy Holly & Jay & The Americans. The best being their version of Rockin' Robin & My Girl, originally by The Temptations, but nothing will really blow you away.
