JESSE COLIN YOUNG & The Youngbloods (Mercury SR 61005, stereo)

• Condition : Cover and vinyl are NM. Includes the Mercury Records innersleeve. No cutout markings.
• Description : Circa 1967 pressing on red labels. This was a bit of deception on Mercury's part- if you look at the label scan below, you will see the artist credit is "Jesse Colin Young" and the LP's title is "Young Blood". This originally was issued as a Young solo LP in a different sleeve. When Young moved over to RCA with his new group The Youngbloods and began racking up some sales there, Mercury saw fit to put this LP back out with the misleading cover you see here- this is not the group "The Youngbloods" that recorded for RCA, it's Young solo, backed by George Duvivier, Peter Childs, John Sebastian (pre-Lovin' Spoonful), and Osie Johnson. I think RCA made them pull this version of the LP pretty quickly as I've never seen another copy with this particular cover, though Mercury tried something similar a few years later with their "Two Trips" reissue album, after The Youngbloods had moved over to Warners! Music is good NYC hipster folk / blues circa 1965, regardless of the industry machinations behind this pressing.

Also, sorry but requests from underbidders along the lines of "I didn't win, could you A) dub the record to CD for me B) ask the high bidder to dub the record to CD for me or C) give me the winner's email so I can ask" are ignored due to legal and privacy concerns.
