HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my friend and keyboardist Steve Adams, Roy Buchanan, Ray Charles, John Coltrane, Danielle Dax, Ani DiFranco, Jermaine Dupri, Charles M. Gehr, Don Grolnick, Buddy Holly’s 1957 single “That’ll be the Day,” Julio Iglesias, Cush Jumbo, Tim Keller, Tom Lester (“Eb”), John Lomax, the discovery of Neptune (1846), OMC, Paul Petersen, Walter Pidgeon, Mary Kay Place, Aubrey “ Po” Powell (Hipgnosis), Mickey Rooney (good to have met you), Tim Rose, Romy Schneider, the 1994 film SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, the late Rolf Smedvig (good to have met you), Neil Smith (Alice Cooper), Bruce Springsteen, Jeremy Steig, Soulima Stravinsky, and Steve Boone of The Lovin’ Spoonful. Starting in 1964, The Lovin’ Spoonful rose out of the Greenwich Village folk/jug band scene. Their sound diversified into chamber pop (“She’s Still a Mystery”), country rock (“Nashville Cats”), and the chart-topping hard-edged psychedelic “Summer in the City”—songs penned by their main songwriter, John Sebastian (who later embarked on a long and notable solo career). Beginning in July 1965 with their debut single “Do You Believe in Magic,” the band had 7 consecutive singles reach the Top 10, including “Daydream,” “Did You Ever Have to Make Up Your Mind?” and “Rain on the Roof.” By the mid-60s, The Spoonful was among the most popular groups in the world, and their music and image influenced many rock acts of their era—it is believed that John Sebastian’s wearing of “granny glasses” inspired John Lennon to follow suit. The band migrated from NYC to the Laurel Canyon (Los Angeles) music scene, intersecting with Crosby Stills & Nash, Love, The Mamas & Papas, The Monkees, Frank Zappa, etc. After 1967, The Spoonful went through various line-ups (including a short reformation in the 1979 Paul Simon film ONE TRICK PONY). The current iteration features Steve and long-time members Joe Butler and Mike Arturi. We crossed paths on road gigs a few times—check out this recent clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=isTJ3VBL18Q  Meanwhile, HB SB and thank you for your years of giving us lovin’ spoonfuls of great and joyful music (photo of the band at a brick wall by Henry Diltz).
