ORIGINAL 1966 MONO first pressing featuring the smash hits "RAIN ON THE ROOF" & "SUMMER IN THE CITY" ...you won't find a better copy !!! 

In early 1966 the band was on a shockingly strong roll here. Then all of 22-years old, John Sebastian penned all the songs for HUMS. The album opens with "Lovin' You," a perfect confluence of poprock and jugband music, and it closes with their biggest hit, "Summer In the City." In between are the classics "Rain On The Roof" and "Nashville Cats," along with a host of lesser-known, but no less rewarding numbers from the prolific Lovin' Spoonful ...

Peaking album...The first two tracks ("Lovin' You" and "Bes' Friends") are in the updated jugband style that is characteristic of the Spoonful; the former is mainly poprock, while the latter is more of a throwback to 1920s classic blues.  These are followed by the Howlin' Wolf-inspired "Voodoo in My Basement", the gorgeous Bakersfield-sound "Darlin' Companion", and the lunatic hillbilly bluegrass takeoff "Henry Thomas".  The side then ends with a relatively normal 1966-era poprock groove, "Full Measure".  Another poprock classic song, "Rain on the Roof", starts off Side B, followed by "Coconut Grove", a muted, jazzy piece that is a bit reminiscent of David Crosby.  Next comes "Nashville Cats", which was another gem from the album, and then "4 Eyes", which for some reason sounds like it could have been an outtake from "Freak Out" by the Mothers.  And finally, the timeless all-out impact of "Summer in the City".

Lovin' You   Bes' Friends   Voodoo in My Basement   Darlin' Companion   Henry Thomas   Full Measure   B:    Rain on the Roof   Coconut Grove   Nashville Cats   4 Eyes   Summer in the City
