The Youngbloods were a New York band formed in 1965: Jesse Colin Young singing and playing bass and guitar, Jerry Corbitt on guitar, keyboards and harmonica, Lowell "Banana" Levinger on guitar and electric piano, and Joe Bauer on drums. They made loose, sunny folk rock with a jazzy lilt, and the critics loved them for it, even if the wider public never quite caught on.

Their self-titled debut album in 1967 carried the song that became their calling card: "Get Together", a Chet Powers tune that became their only entry in the US Top 40. In Young's hands it's gentle and open-hearted, and it rolls along on a lazy, glowing groove that sounds like a sunny afternoon in the park. Rock radio's countdowns have kept coming back to it for years.
