Theodore and Friends is the debut album from the Northern Irish rock band the Adventures, released in 1985. The album contained four minor UK chart hits; "Another Silent Day" (UK #71), "Feel the Raindrops" (UK #58), "Two Rivers" (UK #96), and "Send My Heart" (UK #62) which was a hit in Germany and also featured on the soundtrack to the horror movie Demoni the same year. The album reached #65 in Germany, but did not chart in the UK. In the US, the album was released under the title The Adventures with a modified track listing and different cover artwork. During promotion for the follow-up album, member Pat Gribben stated that he wasn't fully happy with Theodore and Friends stating that "You could hear the production problems". In 1990 he commented favourably on the track "When the World Turns Upside Down" saying that unlike the other tracks it remained fresh whereas the rest of the album relied too heavily on current production and musical trends. The album was reissued on compact disc in the UK in July 2009 under the 'Lemon' imprint of Cherry Red Records. The reissue includes the original album with several bonus tracks and expanded sleeve notes by rock music journalist Malcolm Dome.
