Editorial and Customer Reviews

Editorial review: Amazon.com (approximately 134 words)

It sometimes feels as though the Lovin' Spoonful have been reduced to a footnote in the history of rock & roll. Yet few of their contemporaries could match the likes of "Daydream," "Summer in the City," and the transcendent "Do You Believe in Magic?"--a song that can still turn January into June. Legend has it that the Spoonful auditioned for The Monkees, and they'd have been good in those roles, having the right candy-sweet sound and a warm humor in constant evidence. But it wouldn't have lasted: lead songwriter John Sebastian was too willful and idiosyncratic, coming on like an American Ray Davies on songs such as "Younger Generation," a prescient meditation on the hippie generation's future parental dilemmas. Greatest Hits is a fine 26-song introduction to a perennially underrated band. --Taylor Parkes

Customer review: Lovin Spoonful At Last With Clear Sound (approximately 57 words)

I have bought lots of the songs here before many of them twice and was disappointed by ghastly transfers resulting in thin murky sound. These on the other hand are crystal clear and the lesser known tracks make a case for themselves. If you want quality 60's hits in good sound here they are.
AT LAST!

Customer review: Good But Not Great! (approximately 34 words)

I think the CD meets most of my expectations but it doesn't appear to be digitally remastered so it is a bit scratchie - but the mix of titles is great so no complaints.

Customer review: Drm Damaged By Design (approximately 49 words)

Do not buy this disk. It is NOT a CD, it does not meet the standards for audio CDs and th CD icon is notably absent on the cover. The DRM used causes skipping making the music unlistenable.

Amazon should pull this disk from its inventory

Customer review: Half A Teaspoon Of Full Lovin' (approximately 66 words)

Lovin' Spoonful deserves a full Box set of all recorded LPs.
Any single CD complilation skips favorites and shakes out hits like a turned-over salt/pepper combo on a buffet platter.

John Sebastian wrote classic songs, was as important to his time as
Irving Berlin or Cole Porter to their era.

The humor, the rhyme, the ache of the times!
