Cliff's final top twenty soundtrack album is the usual lightweight and forgettable film fare, typical of the period. Finder's Keepers contains the UK top ten hit single Time Drags By. (UK:6)
"This still stands up as a good collection of catchy songs. OK, yes, they are a bit naff but in a good way and I defy you not to be singing 'Oh Senorita, who's the man beneath your window, singing softly while he plays a small guitar' within minutes of hearing it. Despite blowing my credibility, I have to confess that a lot of Cliff's sixties songs are actually very good. This Day is still a favourite."
"The use of paella as a love song cue is one of the most hilariously hokey rock movie song cues outside of a typical Elvis Presley flick. If you like Cliff Richard and/or the kind of cheerful light hearted, light headed pop music movies they cranked out in the 1950s and '60s, Finders Keepers is pleasant fare for a lazy afternoon."
"The film's songs are all good. Written by The Shadows, they are mostly cheerful and plot relevant, and they include the haunting This Day, a ballad performed while boating through subterranean caverns. The soundtrack is well worth a listen."
