I am 51 now. She never sold out, she taught me to play the guitar and sing and now my kids are singing songs like...Hello Stranger, One paper kid, and ..."I live on a big blue ball...."

]]> Comment on Mama Cass - Bubble Gum, Lemonade and Something For Mama by Jack Carone http://salsboutique.com/mama-cass-bubble-gum-lemonade-and-something-for-mama#comment-272 Jack Carone Tue, 10 Nov 2009 21:21:50 +0000 http://salsboutique.com/?p=65#comment-272 hi Sal and Frank Hurrat-- I am the writer of "Blow Me A Kiss", one of the Cass recordings you have discussed here. 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?
