Warm Classic Rock Interviews with Famous Music Legends of the ’60s ’70s ’80s – A BREATH OF FRESH AIR
Jesse Colin Young, the legendary singer/songwriter known for his work with the Youngbloods as well as a prolific solo career, has died at the age of 83.
Jesse leaves a unique mark on the intersecting worlds of folk, blues, jazz, country, and rock & roll.
As the frontman of The Youngbloods, he immortalised the ideals of the Woodstock generation with “Get Together,” an international hit that called for peace and brotherhood during the turbulent 1960s.
An acclaimed songwriter, singer, instrumentalist, producer, label owner, podcast host, and longtime social/environmental activist, he has established a permanent place in America’s musical landscape – while continuing to make modern music that’s every bit as vital as his work during the counterculture era.
We will miss you and your music Jesse.
This interview recorded shortly after the release of his latest solo effort.
