John Sebastian will sing and play and
probably enchant a good segment of the
audience in Carmichael tonight. He seems
to have a "magical connection" which
excites the empathy of his listeners.
Sebastian has honed and developed his
connective skill for some time. He began
playing the guitar at 13. He went on to
New York University which apparently
didn't interest the future troubador.
Sebastian soon fled the groves of
academe. Not before he'd formed his first
group though. It was the Even Dozen Jug
Band. Sebastian retained his love of jug
band music and later penned a song
praising it.
After that group's break-up, he formed
the Mugwumps which played
engagements at the Night Owl in
Greenwich Village. The three other
Mugwumps were to achieve pop notoriety
too. A future Mama and Papa performed
in the outfit. Cass Elliott, a heavyweight
literally, if not figuratively, supplied vocal
dynamics. Denny Dohcrty contributed
his counter-tenor voice.
But the Mugwumps were half-Mamas
and Papas, half-Loving Spoonful. Along
with Sebastian, Zal Yanosky added his
full measure. The Mugwumps folded and
Sebastian joined the reputable bluesman,
Lightnin' Hopkins.
He then bolted from Lightnin' to the
Spoonful. And the Spoonful quickly won
a following. A series of albums for
Buddah, better known for bubble gum
than quality, proved the Spoonful served
up a unique blend of folk, country and
blues. They occasionally added a dash of
rock as in the song imploring parents to
"let that boy rock 'n roll."
They used harps, harmoniums and
harmonicas as well as guitars and drums.
For one tune, a jew's harp was added.
"Summer in the City," the Spoonfull
incorporated a jack hammer to get the
proper effect. The Spoonful never
scrupled at risks. They were consistently
innovative.
After their untimely passing from the
scene, Sebastian enhanced his skills and
gained familiarity with audiences as a
soloist. About a year ago, another
Spoonful, Zal Yanovsky, recorded a solo
album, "Alive and Well in Argentina." It
suffered from nonreeognition. - Lack of
ijecogniticm . has fortunately jiot been
Sebastian's fae.

The Fox This picture sustains its mood

seen. It is beautifully photographed and
captures the sensuousness of D.H.

are remarkable. -R

wonderful. This movie is a perfect
example of superior comedy acting and
inventive direction overcoming a rather
weak script. It literally bubbles over with
charm and eomedic delights. An
exhilerating tonic.-CH.G
Joe This picture is seriously hampered
by poor plot development and a weak
ending. Also its laughter is rather smug, 1
shallow and easily bought. Still, the
picture is very funny, and sporadically
perceptive and disturbing. Joe himself is a
fascinating, unforgettable character.-CH.

scenes in this are sexy enough, which is a
real change for skin flicks, but it's mostly

Singer John Sebastian will perform in Carmichael Auditorium tonight at 8 p.m.
Tickets are still available at the information desk at the Carolina Union and will be
on sale at the door.
Meanwhile, another eminent figure in
the mid-sixties rock world, Jim McQuinn,
will be joined by three colleagues for a
concert in Duke's indoor stadium on
Saturday night. They are collectively the
Byrds. But these are Byrds of a different .
feather from those who successfully
interpreted Dylan and, Ecclesiastes (as
interpreted by Pete Seeger). "Turn, Turn,
Turn" awoke dormant preachers and
assorted moralists when boosted by
amplification and choir-boy voices.
"Mr. Tambourine Man," "Chimes of
Freedom" and other Dylan songs,
Byrd-style, earned admirers including
Dylan himself who joined them on stage
one night. Those Byrds dissolved. I don't
know where two of them, Gene and Mike
Clark are today. However, apart from
McQuinn, the other two have continued
successfully in music. "

Byrds, now writes songs, plays mandolin,
