Description

Jesse Colin Young - Young Blood - Mercury SR-61005. (Stereo). Second solo LP, pre-Youngbloods.

Grading:

COVER: VG+, some wear to the back. The front is quite nice, with just a slight rub. A little wear to bottom seam near opening.

DISC: glossy early Mercury label. Maybe a spindle mark or two, but very difficult to see. Full gloss, just a little very slight paper sleeve scuffing. Comes with cool original inner sleeve.

All Music review:

Young's early 1965 album, more than the earlier material collected on The Soul of a City Boy, points toward the mixture of rock, folk, blues, and a little country he would take with the Youngbloods, even if little of the album boasts electric rock arrangements. Young combines originals with folk and blues covers on this pleasing set, highlighted by his already excellent vocals, which blend soulfulness and gentleness as well as any of his folk and folk-rock peers from the era. This wouldn't rate among his finest work, only because it doesn't contain anything that would rate among his best original songwriting. Still, there are glimpses of a more idiosyncratically wistful and tuneful composer on "Summer Rain," "Green Hill Mountain Home," and "Lullabye." The presence of some bass, as well as John Sebastian on harmonica, helps make this (for early 1965) an overlooked folk-rock precursor; "Nobody's Dirty Business" has actual drums and is (for early 1965) a pretty progressive combination of folk and rock elements.


Item will be shipped in a box that will well protect the disc and sleeve during transit. Disc will be placed outside of cover.

Thanks for looking!
