The lack of the presence of a hit single, however, leaves it weaker than most of the group's American-released LPs." All tracks written by Dave Clark and Mike Smith, except where noted.

The group was Clark on drums, Huxley on bass, Smith on organ and lead vocals, and Davidson on lead guitar, adding Denny Payton on tenor and baritone saxophone, harmonica and guitar. Originating in north London, the band was promoted as the vanguard of a "Tottenham Sound" (a response to Liverpool's Mersey Beat sound). Dave Clark, who formed the group, struck business deals that allowed him to produce the band's recordings and gave him control of the master recordings.

When Saxon, who played saxophone and occasionally sang, departed in 1962 along with second saxophonist Jim Spencer, the group was renamed the ‘Dave Clark Five’, and Denis Payton became his successor. In its early years, Dave Clark’s group primarily played instrumental music.

Richie Unterberger of Allmusic said the song "was on about the same melodic level as all but the best of the early Beatles' compositions." Unterberger complimented the track's harmony vocals and chord changes, and felt the song "proved that the band had a more subtle dimension than was evident from the stomping hits that were their main diet."

Apart from saxophone, Payton occasionally played guitar and harmonica (he played the harmonica solo on the group’s hit single "Catch Us If You Can"), and sang background vocals.

There's also some pure filler, like the jazzy instrumental "Time" and the infantile "Doo Dah."

While reviewer Christian Hoard wrote, "On their debut, the quintet spread the arty Cheez Whiz like MGMT and Yeasayer while bringing a stronger Sixties-pop influence, specifically with swirling keyboards with melodies that recall Love and the Dave Clark Five. "Roverfrenz," an airy synth fantasia with Animal Collective-ish percussion, gets by on neato textures instead of sharp tunes. In general, "Rewild" could use a little more of the latter, but who has time for that when you're knee-deep in giant guitars and weird ambient vocalizations?" Amazing Baby

Eric Clark (author) Eric Clark (29 July 1937 – 22 October 2018) was a British author and investigative journalist, who wrote books on international diplomacy, the global advertising industry, and US domination of the world toy market. In the 1960s, his "Observer" articles on US Mafia infiltration of London's casinos led to changes in the UK's gambling laws. Clark also wrote five espionage novels, including "The Sleeper", which "Kirkus Reviews" described as a 'mind-lingering entertainment that boosts Clark high up in the stark, lean, British-suspense echelons.' Born in Moseley Birmingham, Clark had an ambition to write from a young age.
