The album's standout hit single, The Jolly Green Giant, reached No. 4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and No. 25 on the R B chart, capitalizing on its novelty appeal and driving the album to No. 22 on the Billboard Top LPs chart for 18 weeks. Other notable tracks include That's Cool, That's Trash and Long Green. Historically significant for its role in the 1960s garage rock scene, the album benefited from the band's touring schedule and the lingering controversy surrounding Louie Louie's lyrics.
