The #Youngbloods were an American #RockBand consisting of #JesseColinYoung (vocals, bass, guitar), #JerryCorbitt (vocals, guitar, keyboards, harmonica), #LowellLevinger (guitar and electric piano), and #JoeBauer (drums). Despite receiving critical acclaim, they never achieved widespread popularity. Their only #USTop40 entry was #ChetPowers' "#GetTogether".

#JesseColinYoung #SongForJuli I’m so glad I stumbled across the 50th Anniversary Remaster of Jesse Colin Young’s staggeringly great 1973 album “Song for Juli.”

The remastered record (just released on September 15th) doesn’t do anything crazy to the sound, but definitely lifts some haze from the mostly great sounding record for the time. Jesse’s vocals and guitar now sound like they are absolutely in the room with you.

Continued thread

#Youngbloods frontman #JesseColinYoung continued with a pretty commercially successful solo career throughout the 70s (and continues releasing music independently to this day), showcasing his voice, which a #Hartford DJ once characterized as “a rare and beautiful thing,” to its best advantage in softer acoustic songs, prefigured on Elephant Mountain in ‘Sunlight,” which he continued to play live as a solo artist.
