Description
Recorded live in 71, The Youngbloods Ride The Wind finds Jesse Colin Youngs mesmerizing guitar and vocals shadowed perfectly by jazzy electric piano and percussion. Young (bass/kazoo/rhythm guitar), Banana (guitar/piano), and Joe Bauer (drums) hit their stride on a half dozen anthemic tracks that sprawl to nearly 40 minutes of superbly unique country-rock. Ride The Wind showcases the bands improvisational chops in the same way their fellow Marin County contemporaries the Grateful Dead did with their live sets. Their top-notch interplay is showcased in the title track as they expand it from Elephant Mountains version to a nearly 10 minute opus showcasing Bananas wizardry on the electric piano. Equally stunning is their take on Fred Neils The Dolphin which they transform into an 8 minute must hear. From the harder edge of Rock Festival to a sparse and chilling rendition of their Top 40 charter Get Together, The Youngbloods expand their sound and your minds while staying true to their unmatched style.
