Editing John Sebastian (section)

===Record releases===
After leaving Reprise, Sebastian continued to occasionally release CD albums through a variety of small labels. Although a number of these releases consisted of compilations or live performances of his older material from the 1960s and 1970s, some, such as ''Tar Beach'' ([[Shanachie Records|Shanachie]], 1993) and ''[[Satisfied (David Grisman and John Sebastian album)|Satisfied]]'' (with [[David Grisman]]) (Acoustic Disc, 2007) have contained significant new recordings. ''Tar Beach'' in particular contained eleven previously unreleased songs written or co-written by Sebastian; four songs were composed by the team of Sebastian and songwriter Phil Galdston,<ref>Mason, Stewart, [https://www.allmusic.com/album/tar-beach-mw0000095210 " AllMusic Review: John Sebastian, Tar Beach"], Allmusic.com.

According to [[Colin Larkin (writer)|Colin Larkin]], Sebastian had written many of the songs that appeared on ''Tar Beach'' more than a decade prior to the album's release.<ref name=larkin /> Two later releases, ''I Want My Roots'' (Music Masters, 1996) and ''Chasin' Gus' Ghost'' (Hollywood, 2000), focused on Sebastian's work with the J-Band.
