"Darling Be Home Soon" #15 3/18/1967

One from the soundtrack of a forgotten Francis Ford Coppola film called "You're A Big Boy Now." Zal Yanovsky, guitarist with the Lovin' Spoonful, would depart the group shortly after this record when he was busted for possession of weed. Being a Canadian citizen and fearing deportation under pressure from the cops, he named his supplier. Needless to say, this didn't sit well at alł with the band's fan base.

I always assumed The Lovin' Spoonful to be straight-laced types, free from the run-of-the-mill scandals.
