♫ Lovin' Spoonful Week Grand Finale ♫

Well, folks, once again we’re wrapping up a fun week of music, this time by the Lovin’ Spoonful.  I’ve had a lot of fun with this one, and I hope you have, too.  But wait … it isn’t over yet!  As I always do at the end of a week-long tribute, I am playing several that I didn’t get around to in the first six days … no lyrics with these, just a brief snippet of background/trivia and the music! …

The Lovin' Spoonful (Happy 80th Birthday, John Sebastian)

John Sebastian (b.1944) turns 80 years old today. Sebastian grew up in Greenwich Village — what was it like having a birthday there on St. Patrick’s Day, I’d like to know? Well, this is my celebration of St. Sebastian. Who happens to be, of all things, Italian, by the way! His family’s last name is Pugliese, much more of a Columbus Day affiliation. The name was shortened by his dad, the original…

Elliot remains an underrated heroine in the story of the Laurel Canyon scene, not only as a musician but also as an amiable hostess who knew how to link up like-minded people. Doherty liked to call her “the Puppeteer.”

In 1964, she introduced her friends John Sebastian and Zal Yanovsky; they became the Lovin’ Spoonful. When she heard that David Crosby and Stephen Stills had begun making music together, she suggested they add a high voice to the mix, and brought them Graham Nash. “I will give you a hundred dollars,” David Crosby told Elliot’s biographer, “if you can find a single person who says they hated Cass.”

Do you believe in magic? If so here’s an original 1966 Guild S-200 Thunderbird Solid Body Electric Guitar in its original grey hard shell case! - Link in our profile. - Thunderbirds are rather rare guitars; only 52 were sold in 1966, another 13 in 1966, and the final 25 shipped in 1968. They did see some high-profile use in the 1960s. During the Lovin' Spoonful's 1965-6 heyday Zal Yanovsky was nearly always seen with a sunburst '64, bought at Manny's on New York's 48th Street. A Guild endorsement deal resulted in one other high-visibility gig: the Muddy Waters band. Around 1967-8 Muddy himself showcased a 1965 S-200 in cherry finish, with the "Mickey Mouse" pickups like this one but the older "Travis" headstock.
