Always loved the Youngbloods.
Saw them at the Fillmore East back in another lifetime.

Constantly reinventing himself, Jesse Colin Young is just as relevant today as he was back in 1968. Perhaps even more so.

Thanks for an excellent article Art.

I always loved Jesse Colin Young Elephant Mountain was a great album, but ‘Song for Julie’ & ‘Songbird’ were my favorites. I got to see him in 1984 in Vancouver ,BC., and have always wondered what he’s up to these days. Thanks for the update !

What an excellent overview! Saw the Youngbloods in the Boston Commons circa 1971 and they grooved. Thanks for bringing back that memory.

Jesse lives a lot of the time now in Aiken, SC. We opened for him last year at an Earth Day event.
