Description

For me this sums up the spirit of the mid sixties

Do You Believe In Magic" is a song written by John Sebastian. It was first recorded and released by his group, The Lovin' Spoonful in 1965. The single peaked at number 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. In 1978, Shaun Cassidy reached the top 40 with his cover version. The song has been recorded by various artists. In 1965, the group The Lovin' Spoonful released the song as the first single from their debut studio album Do You Believe in Magic

If you believe in magic, come along with me We'll dance until morning till there's just you and me And maybe, if the music is right I'll meet you tomorrow, sort of late at night And we'll go dancing, baby, then you'll see How the magic's in the music and the music's in me. Yeah Do you believe in magic? Yeah Believe in the magic of the young girl's soul Believe in the magic of-a rock and roll Believe in the magic that can set you free Ohh, talking 'bout the magic.

Do You Believe in Magic (album). Do You Believe in Magic is the debut album by the folk rock group The Lovin' Spoonful. It was released in November 1965, on the Kama Sutra label. The album features the hits "Do You Believe in Magic" (. No. 9) and "Did You Ever Have to Make Up Your Mind?" (. 2). Do You Believe in Magic was re-released on CD in 2002 with five bonus tracks.

The album also revealed the group's jug band roots in its arrangements of traditional songs like "Fishin' Blues" and "Wild About My Lovin'" and revealed that lead guitarist Zal Yanovsky and drummer Joe Butler, while not quite in Sebastian's league, were good singers as well. The Spoonful would be remembered as a vehicle for Sebastian's songwriting, but Do You Believe in Magic was a well-rounded collection that demonstrated their effectiveness as a group.

Anyone else think Blues in a Bottle sounds like early Kings of Leon? Not a bad début, the traditional covers are pretty much straight ahead blues rock and all executed OK, but just lack a little potency. "Straight Ahead Blues" is probably the best of those. The original tunes are the ones that stand out for me, my favourite being the instrumental closer "Night Owl Blues".
