- Come Saturday Morning was an LP album featuring The Sandpipers, released by A&M Records in August 1970. The album reached #96 on the Billboard charts. The title track was also issued as a single and reached #17 on the Billboard charts. This was a different recording from the version released on the soundtrack album of the film The Sterile Cuckoo. The recording of "The Wonder of You" was the same recording as was included in the album of the same name. The August 8, 1970 issue of Billboard Magazine reviewed the album: The title tune put the smooth trio way up the singles chart, and is now spotlighted in this exceptional program which also features their new single, "Santo Domingo." Also included in this highly commercial package are top readings of "A Song of Joy," "Where There's a Heartache," and the film theme of "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls." Another single release from the LP, "Free to Carry On," was also a chart hit, reaching #94 in the U.S. and #11 on the Easy Listening chart. It did best in Canada, where it reached #1 on the Adult Contemporary chart. The catalog numbers were SP 4262 in the U.S. and Canada, and AMLS 99 in the U.K. Other international releases included Argentina (A&M 5133 6133, titled Ven El Sabado A La Mañana), Australia (World Record Club S-5488, different cover), Germany (A&M SP 4262), Italy (A&M SLAM 47.008), Japan (A&M AML-75), Mexico (A&M AMS-1053), Taiwan (Hua Sheng KHS-4266), and Venezuela (A&M LPS-77.675). The album was reissued in 1979 in the U.S. and Canada on the Pickwick label. (en)
