JESSE COLIN YOUNG: Discography/Biography (2008)......
Jesse Colin Young, critically acclaimed solo artist and lead singer of the legendary classic rock band, The Youngbloods, took the nation by storm when The Youngbloods single GET TOGETHER became a worldwide Top 10 hit and a prominent soundtrack for peace. After seven group releases, Young began the production of more than 15 acclaimed solo albums including SONG FOR JULI, LIGHT SHINE, SONGBIRD and a live album with his great touring band titled ON THE ROAD......
Jesse Colin Young recorded his first album, THE SOUL OF A CITY BOY, in 4 hours, accompanying himself on guitar. A second album, YOUNG BLOOD, featured supporting musicians, including John Sebastian......
After the two solo albums, Jesse met guitarist Jerry Corbitt on the New York to Boston club circuit, and with keyboardist/guitarist Lowell "Banana" Levinger, and drummer Joe Bauer, they began to perform as The Youngbloods. Though the song GET TOGETHER appeared on their first album in 1967, they re-released it as a single in 1969, after the heartfelt refrain of "Come on people now, smile on your brother" was used as the television theme for the National Council of Christians and Jews. GET TOGETHER became a worldwide Top Ten hit, and was immediately followed into the charts by, SUNLIGHT and DARKNESS DARKNESS, both written by Jesse for the ELEPHANT MOUNTAIN release that same year......
Having established legendary status with hit singles and albums, the three remaining Youngbloods (Young, Banana and Bauer) launched their own Raccoon Records, and released four albums between 1970 and 1972; the studio recordings, GOOD & DUSTY, and HIGH ON A RIDGETOP; and two live recordings, ROCK FESTIVAL, and RIDE THE WIND. Jesse returned to recording solo albums in 1972 and released TOGETHER, which entered the Billboard Top 200 Album chart. In September 1973, Jesse released what many critics claim is his solo masterpiece, SONG FOR JULI. That recording stayed on the Billboard Top 200 chart for nearly a year, and was followed onto the chart by LIGHT SHINE in 1974, SONGBIRD in 1975, ON THE ROAD in 1975, and LOVE ON THE WING in 1976. Each of the aforementioned six Jesse Colin Young solo albums contained breakthrough tracks that received airplay on radio stations across America......
During the upward ride of his exploding solo career during the 1970's, Jesse also continued giving back by helping establish the "No Nukes" movement. Involved from the very beginning, Jesse closed the 1979 No Nukes concert and movie joined by legends Jackson Browne, Stephen Stills, and Graham Nash singing The Youngbloods anthem GET TOGETHER......
In 1978, Jesse released AMERICAN DREAMS, an album calling for political involvement, followed by THE PERFECT STRANGER in 1982 with guest stars like Carly Simon. He then returned to acoustic rock with THE HIGHWAY IS FOR HEROES in 1987. Throughout the 1980's, Jesse continued to tour as a solo artist, often appearing at fundraisers for various organizations, and sometimes performing with original Youngbloods members Jerry Corbitt and Banana (the Youngbloods acclaimed drummer Joe Bauer, had sadly passed away prematurely of natural causes)......
In 1993, Jesse and his wife Connie, launched their own independent label, Ridgetop Music, from their mountain home in Marin County. They introduced the imprint by releasing a new Jesse Colin Young album of all original material backed by top San Francisco Bay Area musicians, called MAKIN IT REAL. The next release would be a very personal collection of mostly solo slack key acoustic songs, SWEPT AWAY. Just as Jesse's music enterprises were about to blast off with more adventurous recordings, a forest fire engulfed the Ridgetop property in October 1995. The family home and business was completely destroyed, and Jesse moved Connie and their two children to Hawaii with the clothes they had on their backs......
Throughout his many years of recording and touring, Jesse has also taken the time to dedicate his life to giving back to the world. He has performed on behalf of organizations ranging from the Dream Foundation to the Kona Pacific Waldorf School (in which Jesse and his wife helped to build, and where they both teach music). Always holding environmentalism as a must," from the time of The Youngbloods to his current endeavors as a performer and teacher, Jesse has even used solar-powered energy for his concerts! He and his wife also grow organic Kona coffee on their farm in Hawaii. In 2005, Artemis Records released THE VERY BEST OF JESSE COLIN YOUNG, 34 songs covering 40-years of singing and songwriting.

Recently Jesse has released several tracks on iTunes, including the inspiring "Bring em Home".

It's been awhile since we have been in touch. Thought I would send you a comment wishing you a wonderful weekend. It is beautiful here in North Carolina USA.
It is my hope that everyone who sees this will go look at my page and spread the word that I am trying to put out there. It's a very important message for EVERYONE to know---yes, even MEN. You care about women, don't you?
DO YOU KNOW YOUR BLOOD TYPE? YOU SHOULD, ESPECIALLY IF YOU ARE FEMALE. If you have negative blood type, and especially if you are pregnant my page is a MUST READ.
So please take a look and request my friendship. If you have negative blood I will likely put you in my top 40 friends and I would love to have comments from negative blood folks to share their stories, good and bad about our blood.
Cheers! May peace be with you always......Sincerely, Renee'
Hi Jessie, Thought of you as I made my plans to finish my cd with Jamie Bridges in San Fran in early November. Have you been to Cape Cod in the past year? I would love to catch a show in the near future! I hope all is well with you and enjoy your weekend.
