I saw something on the Lovin Spoonful this past Summer. Kind of interesting. I did like one song a lot by Jon Sebastian...I think it was called...Daring be home soon.

Never thought about it before, but I guess that "whang" sound during the bridge from "Summer in the City" is that crazy autoharp (which I'll admit I'd never seen anyone toting around while playing until this video).

I love these guys. Just straight sunny pop with no pretense. And for bringing the Autoharp out of the shadows of creaky old folk, I salute Mr. Sebastian.

Ever think that Weezer might have done the stealin'? Y'know, in real life.

Sebastian is a really cool guy. I had an opportunity to talk to him on the phone (he frickin' called my house about something) and we talked for 45 minutes. Very down to earth. He also autographed some things for a charity auction I organized...no questions asked, no charge.

Check out his "John Sebastian and the J-Band" stuff. Great jug band music.

Lovin'Spoonful = Most underrated band of the 60's. Never mentioned with the greats.

I believe Zal is losing weight. He has been for years. At least since he started decomposing.
