The Hook Concert History

Take Boston’s Eden's Children, and transplant them into the middle of the southern California “flower power” scene, and you have The Hook. Like their Bostonian brethren, they were a blistering power trio whose considerable instrumental ability was balanced by their limitations as songwriters. But whereas the former group gradually attempted more serious lyricism, the Hook remained blissfully goofy. Songs like “Everything’s Groovy” and “You Know I Do” sincerely embraced their slightness, and are just too much fun not to like.
