This song features a player-style piano, an accordion, and odd bits of musical whimsy. It's very much of its time.
The Mojo Men were from San Francisco. They originally recorded with and for producer Sylvester Stewart, who later became Sly Stone, but without success.
"Sit Down, I Think I Love You" was written by Stephen Stills and originally performed by Buffalo Springfield. The Mojo Men's version of the song reached #36 on the Billboard Hot 100, so it did considerably better in Toronto than in most places.
The followup record, "Me About You", only reached #83 on the chart. The band changed their name to The Mojo and then just Mojo, but that didn't help. They disbanded in 1969.
