And babe, don't you know it's a pity the day can't be like the night in the summer, in the city.

Summer in the City is right up there with Good Vibrations as best summer song ever.

"Younger Girl" is such a beautiful song. I always hate the "you (female) are too young to have...just now" theme, ideologically, but I just can't not dig this dreamy little idyll.

"You're a Big Boy Now" (Boone, Butler, Sebastian) – 2:38 0
watched this movie recently -- is this the track w/ the refrain of "girl, can i look at your insides?" kinda catchy, mostly terrifying

no, that's "Girl, Beautiful Girl (Barbara's Theme)".

(xp) the explanation for the cover is the album was supposed to be called "'Til I Run With You" - tho that doesn't explain why the back cover has Joe Butler squatting down chewing on a branch
I was just listening to the Spoonful yesterday and wondering if there had ever been any sort of poll on them

that album was the first (and only?) one w/o sebastian, i think
all the albums w/ sebastian are pretty great; they were underrated back then, and are still underrated today

Too true. Just heard Zal Yanovsky's one and only solo album, "Alive and Well in Argentina", sadly not very good tho using recordings of Hitler on the title track was amusing in a Mel Brooks sorta way.

he was a pretty phenomenal guitarist

Yeah, always loved his playing... btw "Revelation Revolution 69" is a Lovin' Spoonful album in name only, it's really a Joe Butler solo album.

Zal was such an excellent pop star.

Don't think I heard much of Sebastian's solo work besides this A+ TV theme song

Recommend the California Dreaming episode of Rock Family Trees, plenty of Lovin’ Spoonful in it and John Philips too sadly. There’s not a decent version on YouTube but there’s one here https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2qbnf
