Jon Abdnor Jr. recorded a few uncharting singles on his fathers label, in 63’ and 64’ only gaining airplay in his hometown of Dallas. After this failure, Abdnor was paired with vocalist Javonne Braga. As Jon & Robin, he finally charted nationally in 1967 with “Do It Again A Little Bit Slower”, followed by a full length album. In 1968 with their second LP Elastic Event the group transformed their sound to more of a fuzzed, bubble gum, psych sound. Spearheaded from poor sales of their second full length both Jon & Robin tried a solo, with minimal success yet again. The two reunited in late 1968 for a few more singles only to call it quits in 1969.
Javonne Braga married Five Americans drummer Jimmy Wright in 1970.
Jon ended up having a mental breakdown and was checked in a hospital in Dallas, where he developed an affair with his psychiatric nurse. After his release, they moved in together, where Jon’s mental difficulties followed, for Jon murdered her in the home.
Do It Again
Jon & Robin & the In Crowd Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's only one thing wrong with the way you kiss me (kiss me, yeah)
Now your kisses are sweeter than sugar & plenty strong enough
But the bad part is you don't do it slow enough, oh
Do it again just a little bit slower
Do it again just a little bit slower
I just can't stand it when it's over
Hold me (hold me), I love the way that you hold me (hold me, ooo)
There's only one thing wrong with the way you hold me (hold me, yeah)
Maybe you'd just laugh if I let you know too soon
But the thing about this, you just let go too soon, oh baby
Slower, slower, kiss me just a little bit slower
Tell me that you love me, hold me fast, make it last &...
(chorus)
(repeat the word "slower" & fade)

Kiss me (kiss me), I love the way that you kiss me (kiss me, ooo)
I want you to kiss me because I really enjoy it
There's only one thing wrong with the way you kiss me (kiss me, yeah)
I have an issue with the way you kiss me
Now your kisses are sweeter than sugar & plenty strong enough
Your kisses are really good and powerful
But the bad part is you don't do it slow enough, oh
The only downside is that you go too fast
Do it again just a little bit slower
Please kiss me again, but slower
Hold me (hold me), I love the way that you hold me (hold me, ooo)
I love being held by you
There's only one thing wrong with the way you hold me (hold me, yeah)
However, there is an issue with how you hold me
Maybe you'd just laugh if I let you know too soon
I'm afraid you'll laugh if I tell you too early
But the thing about this, you just let go too soon, oh baby
You release me too quickly, which is disappointing
Do it again just a little bit slower
Please hold me again, but slower
Do it again just a little bit slower
Please do those things again, but slower
I just can't stand it when it's over
It's really hard for me when it's over
Slower, slower, kiss me just a little bit slower
I want you to kiss me at a slower pace
Tell me that you love me, hold me fast, make it last &...
Please hold me tight and tell me you love me, and make it last
