The Spoonful meets the Dawg
Wow, what a wonderful abum! The Lovin' Spoonful always kept that easy, happy beat going as John Sebastian does here. Add the virtuosity of David Grisman and you have the ultimate feel-good music. I hadn't heard several of these tunes in many years and it was fun cruising down memory lane with the car windows open and funny looks coming from other drivers. (That didn't keep the silly grin off my face.) If you like this kind of music, and you wouldn't be here if you didn't, buy this one right now!
Two well traveled and musicians sit back and just play.

This CD features John Sebastian, David Grisman in the most natural of settings. The songs, all classics in their own right, were basically recorded live with just a couple of microphones. The playing is engaging and can suck you in instantly. The vocals sound a little road worn. They have a charming older gentleman sitting on a porch sound. Not that the vocals are bad it is just next to such vibrant playing they sound a little old. John Sebastian and David Grisman do their best singing with their instruments.
For me this CD is all about the instrumentals. The playing is full of taste, craftsmanship and whimsy. In this case the picture on the CD cover really reflects what the CD will sound like. I particularly enjoyed the sprinkeling of blues tunes mixed throughout the CD. And Pssst... Don't tell anyone but there is a cool little version of John Sebastian's "Daydream" hidden in the last track starting at 3:04
Great Recording
Another Acoustic Gem from Acoustic Disc.
I was amazed at the overal sound for a duet recording.
Sebastian's fingerstyle guitar with Grisman's mandolin produce an incredibly rich sound. Some great instrumentals too.
Sebastian's voice may have aged but still has great 'character".
