Message Detail:
Love the Dupress also! And Dionne Warwick - particularly "Don't Make Me Over".

The only thing I remember from Looking Glass is "Brandy", but I am sure there must have been a lot more. I loved "Brandy".

John Sebastian was a great fan of Gus Cannon, who wrote "Prison Wall Blues", and although Cannon is not co-credited for the melody, the similarities are somewhat obvious.

Gus (who died around 1980 when he was close to 100!), was still playing in the 1060's and 1970's - mainly the same type of jug band music that John Sebastian liked so much.

Cannon also wrote "Walk Right In" which was a hit for the Rooftop Singers.
