| | We're the Banana Splits/Here Come the Beagles - Banana Splits - Song Listings |
 | | This 1,000-copy limited-edition CD reissue does collectors -- and there are a few of them, by the way, who really do want a complete Banana Splits library -- a favor by putting a wealth of material by the group on one disc, with plenty of rare tracks. |
 | | For all its good-natured, well-produced late-'60s pop, it is too sweet and happy in one dose, like having a banana split for appetizer, lunch, and dessert. |
 | | Actually the best part of the package, though, are the ten tracks from the rare 1967 LP by fellow kiddie TV group the Beagles, who are actually not bad mid-'60s pop/rockers with a Beatles-Merseybeat influence to the songs and harmonies, though the production bears strong American soul and pop influences. |
