Okay, listening to this with headphones on is giving me goosebumps, which automatically makes it rate at least a 9. So 8 > 9.

..i woulda thought this was released in the mid-90s (except for the 60s gee-tahr stuff).. |

Well, we're going backward in time, aren't we? Track's still pretty "fresh", actually.

Barnet Heir = hair Barnet Fair, surely. I've spent thirty years thinking the Mott version was the original. The shame. |

WonderLizard wrote:Picked this off Richard and Mimi Farina's web site. I have no idea how old the information is. Banana is most famous as the guitarist of The Youngbloods, an eclectic folk-rock band of the late sixties to early seventies. He also had his own band, Banana and the Bunch, both before and after the Youngbloods. He was in charge of the record company, Racoon, which produced the Youngbloods' later albums and albums by Michael Hurley, High Country, and Kenny Gill. The Banana and the Bunch album, Mid-Mountain-Ranch (Racoon #13, 1972), is an overlooked classic that is worth hunting for, and features Banana on guitar, bass, banjo, mandolin, piano, and vocals. A close cousin to that album is Joe Bauer's all-instrumental Moonset (Racoon #3). Today Banana plays with several different bands— The Michael Barclay Blues Band, The Barry Melton Band, and Joe New and the Walking Wonders. He also sells vintage musical instruments at vintageinstruments.com <Bump> |

Saw them at Listner Auditorium, a long time ago and in a galaxy far away.

One of my earliest musical memories. This was the first song I fell in love with. I was age three. There began a lifelong love affair with music.

I hunted for a LONG time to find some early JCY - I have it on CD, but I just got a new computer, so I have to regain all my programs. Once I do, I'll try to upload "Ridgetop" and maybe one or two of JCY's other things... No promises here, but it would really be nice to hear some of Jesse's solo work... |

I wouldn't have remembered this song from oh so long ago if it weren't a frequent choice here on RP. This song is timeless - sounds like it could have come out yesterday. So glad I am reminded of it so I can add it to my collection. Thanks, Bill and Rebecca.

You know, that's an interesting thought. I quickly put together a top 5 that might fit the bill( and granted this isn't what i think everybody would agree upon, just musing a bit) here goes: Paul Weller (especially Wake Up The Nation) et al. , Charlie Musselwhite, The Eels, Built to Spill, and The Tragically Hip. |

Bill, Nice segue from Calexico's "Two Silver Trees"...which features similar melodic structures, etc. Haven't heard the Youngbloods in years. Nice to see them here. Cheers, Tim
