Written by Rock and Roll Hall of Famer John Sebastian, “Darling Be Home Soon” was recorded by his band the Lovin’ Spoonful for the 1966 Francis Ford Coppola-directed feature film, You’re A Big Boy Now. The newly arriving single comes from Campbell and Williams’ forthcoming album, Live At Levon’s!, which was recorded over the course of two concerts at Levon Helm Studios in Woodstock, New York in September 2019. The live album will be released via Royal Potato Family on February 3.
Regarding “Darling Be Home Soon,” Campbell stated:
“When I was a kid one of the bands that made a big impact on me was the Lovin’ Spoonful. I was enamored by the material. The songwriting was a bridge between jug band, folk, pop and rock and roll. I soon found out that John Sebastian was the heart and soul of that band. Years later when I started coming up to Woodstock, NY where John lives, I got to know him and he wound up becoming a great friend. He was a hero when I was kid and I came to find out he was everything I had wanted him to be as a person. His song ‘Darling Be Home Soon’ always particularly fascinated me. Teresa and I started playing it when we were asked to perform at a commemoration of the Woodstock ’69 music festival. We loved doing it so much that it became a permanent part of our repertoire. It’s an honor to have the opportunity to pay tribute to an artist who I consider to be one of our great American songwriters.”
Live At Levon’s! features the guitarist/multi-instrumentalist Campbell and his vocalist wife Williams backed by their band consisting of drummer Justin Guip, bassist Jesse Murphy and Levon Helm alumnus Brian Mitchell on keyboards, accordion and harmonica. The couple previously previewed the live album with the single, “Angel Of Darkness,” which Campbell co-wrote with Hot Tuna’s Jorma Kaukonen.
