The Lovin' Spoonful

Lovin' S[oonful

Do You Believe In Magic, the best celebration of rock'n'roll ever sung, made the Top Ten ..., establishing the Lovin' Spoonful as the premier feel-good group of their generation. If the song, as John Sebastian has since revealed, owed much of its inspiration to Motown, the links to jug band and folk music were there to hear, particularly in Sebastian;s use of the autoharp.
