Them Again is the second album by the Northern Irish band Them, fronted by lead singer and songwriter Van Morrison. The album was released by Decca Records in the UK on 21 January 1966, but it failed to chart. In the U.S., the album was released with somewhat different tracks in April 1966 and it peaked at number 138 on the Billboard chart.

Critical reception

In a review for AllMusic, critic Brude Eder writes:

Author Clinton Heylin considers the cover version of Bob Dylan's "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue" to be "that genuine rarity, a Dylan cover to match the original".
