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".

Get Together - The Youngbloods

Love is but a song we sing
Fear's the way we die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the bird is on the wing
And you may not know why
Some may come and some may go
He will surely pass
When the one that left us here
Returns for us at last
We are but a moment's sunlight
Fading in the grass
Come on, people now
Smile on your brother
Everybody get together
Try to love one another right now

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.

The word is Elephant

#Youngbloods, “Elephant Mountain” #LP

The Youngbloods had their biggest hit, #SummerOfLove anthem “Get Together” in 1967, but it was the more intense “Darkness, Darkness” from Elephant Mountain in ’69 that gave them life on #fmRadio for years after the band dissolved. 1/2
