Enjoy an evening in Bethel Woods with 1969 Woodstock alum, John Sebastian!
Over four decades the contributions of John Sebastian have become a permanent part of our American musical fabric.
His group The Lovin' Spoonful played a major role in the mid-'60s rock revolution, but what leader, singer and songwriter Sebastian had in mind was actually a counter-revolution. "We were grateful to the Beatles for reminding us our rock & roll roots," John explains, "but we wanted to cut out the English middlemen, so to speak, and get down to making this new music as an 'Amer- ican' band."
This the Lovin' Spoonful did like nobody before or since, putting their first seven singles into the Top 10.
