NICE Original 1966 MONO first pressing vinyl...the glorious MONO performance delivers a big bold punchy production which differs from the stereo issue....
And possibly/arguably the Spoonful's strongest album, track for track winners!
This contains some absolute gems - John Sebastian in his prime could write songs as well as anyone else of his era, reminding a bit of Gene Clark in the way that the music on its own sounds infectious and happy, while when the singing colors everything with a hint of sadness.
When the Spoonful released this, their album, in 1966 they were in full stride. The result is a richly beautiful web of rock and roll, jug band, blues, and rural influences cradling an offering of good self-composed tunes. John Sebastian's chugging rhythm guitar, zinging autoharp, expert harmonica, and warm singing weave tapestries with Zal Yanovsky's guitar playing--itself the happiest fruit of an ADD personality, searching here and there and never complacent, capable of the nosiest nastiness and astonishing, delicate beauty. It was quality stuff, from 4 talented, hip individuals who had something unique to offer. On the first album they were were rough and full of charm; the second album was filled with smooth pop-craft. They were at their peak on this one; unpretentious, entertaining, and with timeless songwriting melodies that you hear right from the start, on through to the end.
Released a mere four months after their "Magic" LP, the Spoonful's strong effort featured almost exclusively original material. [The lone cover is "Bald Headed Lena" featuring Zal on lead vocal and electric gorgle--which is actually Zal gargling!!!] Other than The Best of the Lovin' Spoonful, this was their highest-charting album at No. 10. It's filled with the kind of good time music that the Spoonful were known for. And not just the pair of Top Ten hits: "Daydream" and "You Didn't Have To Be So Nice." There are lovely ballads like "Warm Baby," rockers like "Let the Boy Rock and Roll," the very rural-sounding "Butchie's Tune" and the jam "Big Noise From Speonk."
