Excellent album

Black and white photo of a young light skinned black woman in a dark beret and turtleneck sweater, sitting outside of the brick steps of a wooden house porch. Next to her is a shorthaired white cat looking very curiously into the distance, but the cat is restrained by the woman’s hand and also a harness if it should decide to run off and investigate.

🤣 Wow, he's only 39? I feel really old.

In 1971 the Youngbloods broke up and Young launched a solo career that included more than a dozen records over the decades. While Young's biggest solo single, "Higher & Higher," stopped outside the Top 100 in 1977, his albums remained steady sellers throughout the '70s. Eight solo albums that decade hit the charts, with 1975's Songbird reaching #26.

In the summer of 1967, the band released "Get Together," written by later Quicksilver Messenger Service member Dino Valenti under his real name Chet Powers, with Young on lead vocals. The song - also known as "Let's Get Together" and "Everybody Get Together" - became a favorite of the hippie era, covered by the Kingston Trio, We Five (who had the first charting version of the song), Jefferson Airplane and the Dave Clark Five. Nirvana later used the song's famous line - "Come on, people, now / Smile on your brother / Everybody get together, try to love one another right now" - at the start of the song "Territorial Pissings" from their 'Nevermind' album.

The Youngbloods' version of "Get Together" became the standard. Even though its initial 1967 release stalled at #62, the single was reissued in 1969 and reached #5.

The band's third album, 'Elephant Mountain' from 1969, remains a highlight of their career. Its opening song, "Darkness, Darkness," about the Vietnam War, was written and sung by Young from the perspective of a soldier. Robert Plant later covered "Darkness, Darkness" and received a Grammy Nomination for his version of the song in 2002's 'Dreamland.'

R.I.P. folk rock singer-songwriter Jesse Colin Young, who died yesterday (3/16/25). The former leader of the Boston-area based group the Youngbloods died at his home in South Carolina. Young (who was born Perry Miller on Nov. 22, 1941, in Queens NYC) released dozens of solo albums over 5 decades.

As The Clash started winding down, I discovered (better late than never), The Jam.
they lasted about a year by the time I heard them - I quickly made up for lost time and acquired most everything. I loved it all, the early Mod stuff to the later R&B grooves. The songs and the vibe were fantastic.

Loves America so much he spent their hard earned taxes on funding a foreign genocide rather than vital domestic needs like healthcare & housing.

An affront to the White House. He belongs in the Hague!
