American Tour

American Tour is the third U.S. studio album by the English rock band the Dave Clark Five, released in 1964 by Epic Records. Contrary to its title, inspired by the band's first US tour, American Tour is not a live album. American Tour contains the hit song "Because", as well as "Whenever You're Around", which was not a single in the U.S. but was issued as a B-side to "Thinking of You Baby" in the U.K., and was used in the film Get Yourself a College Girl. In Canada, the album was released by Capitol Records as On Stage with The Dave Clark Five. The album reached No. 11 on the Billboard 200 album chart and No. 16 in Cashbox. The album has not been released in the UK. In his AllMusic retrospective review of the release, Greg Adams wrote, "The mixture of jazzy chords, straight-ahead rock, and saxophone is an interesting one, making the group less enigmatic than the Zombies and more obviously rooted in earlier rock traditions than the Beatles."
