917 Lovin’ Spoonful “Daydream” 1966

“John Sebastian and Zal Yanovsky were joined in their new band by Steve Boone, who played bass, and Joe Butler on drums. At the beginning, as Sebastian put it years later in the San Francisco Chronicle, ‘We were smoking pot and drinking beer. We were having fun.’ But once the band started to take off, they got more serious about their music. ‘Once we started to have actual audiences, then nobody wanted to smoke pot before the show because it was too scary’” (Michael Belfiore, Contemporary Musicians, 2002).
