AMAZING STILL SEALED Original 1967 VINYL first pressing of the famous first Youngbloods album, one of their most celebrated in that it contains the forever timeless Get Together ("C'mon people, smile on your brother everybody get together and love one another right now") 

***contains the rare sticker on outside of cellophane wrapper: "The original version of the hit GET TOGETHER" this sticker was only available on first pressings on the outside shrink wrap only!

 >> it will contain the original 1967 RCA inner sleeve

The sixties New York scene had the Lovin' Spoonful, who were the smiling popsters, the Blues Project had the traditional R&B/blues band, and the Youngbloods were the rock band. But they caught drift of that smell of incense and migrated over 3000 miles away to the San Francisco hippie scene and laid down the 'summer of love' anthem with their timeless 'Get Together' a song of love and peace.  Sure, the album kicks off with guitarist Jerry Corbitt's "Grizzly Bear", a song about a dancing bear who has "gone to Frisco / to dance it there", but it is an exception.  This album's tone is louder (the brash, distorted lead guitar on "The Other Side of This Life"), and darker ("Four in the Morning", even "Get Together" is bittersweet) and Felix Pappalardi's strong production gives the instruments a well-rounded sound and distinct edges.  Additionally, the band avoids instrumental wanderings and this decision helps their more unusual blues covers ( "Ain't That Lovin' You Baby", "Statesboro Blues", "C.C. Rider").  Their songwriting is strong as well - Corbitt has two excellent lighter songs (the aforementioned "Grizzly Bear", and "All over the World (La-La)") and Young has a similar delight in "Foolin' Around (The Waltz)". Certainly the album's most famous track gives rise to the album's claim to fame with the hippie anthem, "Get Together" combines Young's smooth tenor, and Corbitt and Banana's guitar work into a measured vast sounding track. The Youngbloods really had it together on their debut (although Felix Pappalardi's production sure doesn't hurt also).
