Ive never heard of or ever saw this album b4, I love Mama Cass of Mamas n Papas. When I do arrive home I will clean it and see how good its been kept for the past 41 yrs and as Ive read will be a wonderful listening experience. Its a good thing being a vinyl junkie with a $11k system @ home. Thanks for all your comments on this site for teaching me what new goodie I discovered!!!

I just bought Dedicated to the One on Love-Mama Cass Elliot an import CD on Ebay (under $10 w/shipping). It has most of the songs off of the Bubblegum and Lemonade album plus some more. I've been playing the new CD since I got it! Check it out- it's great I had this album in my youth and missed it so!

Frank, you are correct that the Spoonful had varied sounds on their records. However, as a huge fan of John Sebastian, I was definitely influenced by his writing, and BMAK does bear some relationship to "his "Daydream". Sir Paul has admitted that "Good Day Sunshine" was also inspired by "Daydream" That's how it works... As a teenaged songwriter when Cass, an icon at the time, recorded BMAK, you can imagine how thrilled I was to hear this record. As a still-young man I was also thrilled to unexpectedly meet John S. and get to tell him that he did inspire me to write. Incidentally, it has been revealed that Cream's "White Room" was influenced by "Summer in the City". I think it is Sebastian's sense of whimsy or sweetness or just his unique way of looking at life that is the recognizable throughline, as opposed to the sonics. Great to visit with you, JC hi Sal and Frank Hurrat–

Hurrat Sat, 24 Oct 2009 21:54:15 +0000 http://salsboutique.com/?p=65#comment-266 Your statement, "Side one continues with Blow Me A Kiss, a Lovin’ Spoonful style stroll through the park, featuring a top hat swaying clarinet solo and a wonderful brush-and-bass-drum backbeat from Blaine" left me wondering what a "Lovin' Spoonful style stroll through the park" meant. The Spoonful were very mindful of "their sound" and made sure that they recorded very different sounds. One can hardly say that "Do You Believe In Magic," "Daydream,""Six O'Clock" and "Summer In The City" have a single "sound," without even considering "Nashville Cats," "Jug Band Music,""Did You Ever Have To Make Up Your Mind," "Lovin' You," etc. Also, was it Sebastian and Jerry Yester or Sebastian and Zal Yanovsky that Cass brought together?
