Yes, Karly, that's a very pretty one. Other good ones are "Do You Believe in Magic?" "Did You Ever Have to Make up Your Mind, "Younger Girl," "Didn't Want to Have to Do It," "Jug Band Music," and "Nashville Cats," among many. I saw them once long ago at Philharmonic Hall in NY. Last I heard, Zal was running some restaurant in Canada. And, of course, John Sebastian, their main composer, wrote the theme to "Welcome Back Kotter." Sebastian's father was a harmonica teacher, and you can really hear John's harmonica proficiency in the instrumental, "Night Owl Blues." The whole history of the related groups, the Spoonful and the Mamas and the Papas is told in the song, "Creeque Alley," by the latter group.

Lovin' Spoonful is awesome! They're one of the few 60's bands I still listen to.

Gee I'm sorry to hear that. They were my musical idols when I was a teenager.
