A singer, top-notch tunesmith, and purveyor of what he simply called "Southern music" -- a brew of country, folk, rock, blues, gospel, and Celtic styles -- Steve Young was a songwriter's songwriter, an acclaimed performer -when he would reticently give a live show- whose work usually found its greatest commercial success in the hands of other artists and earned him praise from the likes of Waylon Jennings, Townes Van Zandt, and Lucinda Williams.

Born in Georgia and raised throughout the South, by his teens Young was already playing guitar and writing his own songs. In the early '60s, he moved to New York City and became affiliated with the burgeoning Greenwich Village folk music scene. After a brief return to Alabama, where he'd spent time growing up, he settled in California in 1964.

On the West Coast, Young struck up friendships with the likes of Stephen Stills and Van Dyke Parks. A tenure with the psychedelic folk unit Stone Country yielded an eponymous 1968 LP, and a year later, Young issued his solo debut Rock Salt & Nails, a country-rock excursion featuring cameos by Gram Parsons, Chris Hillman, and Gene Clark. He moved to Reprise in 1971, and with the title track of that year's SEVEN BRIDGES ROAD, he offered perhaps his best-known composition, popularized through a series of covers by artists like the Eagles, Rita Coolidge, and Ian Matthews. No one hit wonder, he had another tremendous success when Waylon Jennings covered "Lonesome, On'ry and Mean" in 1973, turning it into a signature anthem of the outlaw country movement. Later on, Hank Williams, Jr. notched a hit with "Montgomery in the Rain."

All three of the afore-mentioned songs are found here in their original versions by the man who wrote them.

VERY hard-to-find LP!
The subdued cover graphics; though very cool, especially by today's standards, did nothing to put the then-unknown prodigy in front of a national audience. The LP sunk into obscurity and Young quietly went about writing great songs for other artists.

This LP is kept in a protective, clear poly outer-sleeve, as you shall receive it.
