Two Spoonfuls of Lovin'



The recent mention of John Sebastian and the wonderful weather we have been having recently had me reaching to the shelves for Lovin' Spoonful's Greatest Hits.
They took their name from the lyrics from Mississippi John Hurt's Coffee Blues.
They shone briefly and brightly between 1965 and 1967 with some great radio friendly singles which still get a regular airing today.
Altogether now:-
Hot town, Summer in the City
Back of my neck getting dirty and gritty
Been down, isn't it a pity
Doesn't seem to be a shadow in the city

Terrific stuff
