专辑简介 This 20-track compilation contains everything from their 1964 self-titled LP, as well as both sides of their three 1964 singles and a cover of Ray Davies´ "I Go to Sleep" (found on a 1965 single). Its quaintness and lack of strong tunes (only one of which was a group original) limit its worth to British Invasion obsessives for the most part, with some value for Beatles completists due to the hit cover of "Like Dreamers Do.""No Time," one of several songs co-written by future Honeybus main man Pete Dello, is about the best song, with its moody melody; at their most energetic (as on "See If She Cares") they sound a bit like Gerry & the Pacemakers. The covers of ´50s rock classics are dire, but the reading of Davies´ "I Go to Sleep," with its eerie organ and high yelping backup vocals, has some curiosity value as the first cover of this song, which the Kinks did not release in the 1960s. Even with 20 tracks, this adds up to just under 50 minutes. Since anyone who bothers to find an Applejacks compilation would probably want anything the group did, it´s too bad Deram didn´t also include the other non-LP tracks from their 1965 singles (as well as the cover of the Beatles´ "Baby´s in Black" that turned up on a mid-´60s various-artists compilation), for which there was certainly room.

Apple Jacksis a brand ofcerealproduced byKellogg'sand targeted mainly at children. It was introduced to the U.S. as "Apple O's" in 1965 after being invented by William Thilly, now a professor atMIT.In 1971 the name "Apple Jacks" was put into action by advertisers. The product is described by Kellogg's as a "crunchy, sweetened multi-grain cereal with apple and cinnamon."

Originally, all Apple Jacks cereal pieces wereorangeand O-shaped, although they have become brighter and more orange colored over the decades. In 1998, O-shapedgreenpieces were introduced. On December 8, 2003, as part of a marketing promotion, the orange jacks remained O's but the green jacks were X's for a while (actually, 'jack' shaped, from jumping jacks, the campaign was made as adults made the cereal make 'more sense', as with the flavor), and in summer 2005 the green jacks were figure-8's (double O's) for a period of time.
More recently, Apple Jacks has introduced New Apple Jacks 'Crashers' - a unique cereal piece that replicates an unfortunate accident from a mid '07 advertising execution when mascots Bad Apple and CinnaMon were accidentally fused together.The latest (limited) edition, in 2010, are Apple Clones, with red pieces shaped like apples.
Advertising
The first Apple Jacks mascot in the 1960s was "Apple Head", a figure made from cutting a face onto an apple and applying a hat and pieces of cereal for eyes.
In the late 1960s the box depicted an "Apple Car" with pieces of cereal for wheels.
Around 1971, the official mascots became "The Apple Jacks Kids", a simplistically drawn animated boy and girl duo. The commercials featured the children singing and tumbling around. Their reign lasted almost twenty years, making them the most well-known Apple Jacks mascots and most universally associated with the cereal in the public's memory. During this time, the Apple Jacks jingle became an integral part of the ad campaign: "A is for apple, J is for Jacks, Cinnamon-toasty Apple Jacks!" This campaign was retired in the late 1980s.
A television ad campaign in the 1990s featured children expressing their enjoyment of Apple Jacks, regardless of its lack of apple flavor. The slogan for this campaign became "We eat what we like". The shift toward marketing cereals directly at children signaled the growing recognition of children's influence on family purchases.
As of2011, the marketing mascots are a care-freeJamaicancinnamon stick named CinnaMon and an accident-prone apple named Bad Apple. Labeled asApple Jacks Adventuresin print advertising, the commercials focus on CinnaMon upstaging Bad Apple by reaching a bowl of Apple Jacks before he can, in spite of the apple's attempts to stop him. Due to legal troubles, Bad Apple's antagonistic nature was dropped; Apple and CinnaMon were then portrayed as highly competitive friends, both getting into the bowl. The campaign was slated to be retired in 2007, and replaced by a retread of the 1990s campaign focused on children, but fan response to Apple and CinnaMon helped them remain as the mascots. In 2007, Apple and Cinnamon where fused together with Cinnamon sticking through the center of Apple with both of their legs at the bottom of their body. They remained this way for a few of the commercials until they became unstuck by a special machine. In 2009 Apple and Cinnamon were transported out of their cartoon world to the real world of New York City, where they continue to race each other to the bowl where they would enter the bowl at the same time.
