ARTIST BACKGROUND

About The Lovin' Spoonful

The Lovin' Spoonful grew from New York's folk scene into a quartet whose recordings combined folk material, blues roots and pop songwriting. Do You Believe in Magic and Summer in the City became widely familiar singles. The Daydream album reflects the group's concise arrangements, with guitars, piano and vocal interplay supporting songs including You Didn't Have to Be So Nice.
