The Lovin' Spoonful - Daydream

From the mighty Kama Sutra label mono master tapes

Mono edition on 180-gram vinyl

By the release of the Spoonfuls' second album, Daydream, in March 1966, the band's songwriting chops had fully blossomed, particularly Sebastian's, who wrote or co-wrote all but one of the songs. The album's first single, "You Didn't Have to Be So Nice" reached No. 10 on the Hot 100 and married a signature Yanovsky riff with a galloping piano part to form an indelible hook. The title track, a mid-tempo reverie with an ace whistling solo, did even better, soaring to No. 2. Skipping ahead a few decades, the album cut "Butchie's Tune" was used to great effect in season five of Mad Men.

Sourced from the original Kama Sutra label mono masters, these masterpieces are pressed at RTI on 180-gram vinyl.
