Tracklist
ALong Lonely Broken Hearted b/w Oh RonnieKal's Kids were from Allentown, Pennsylvania. They took first place on the Ted Mack Amateur Hour on television which earned them a recording contract with the local Vernon label. A local evening disc jockey on WSCR Radio, singer, songwriter and record producer who called himself Frantic Freddie (a.k.a. Freddie Frederick, Fred Milander, and Fred Mylander) took an interest in the group. Freddie became the group's producer, arranger, and co-wrote both sides of their first single with a guy named Craig Kastelnick. They only made this one record as Kal's Kids. When they were picked up by Date Records in 1968, their name was changed The Young Ideas. They cut one record on Date 1614, with the songs Barney Buss and Melody. Apparently they also cut a few more singles on the Swan and Jeree labels as The Young Ideas, not to be confused with The Young Idea, a group from England. This led them to ABC Records where they cut Candy Street and Be My Baby on ABC 11067 in 1968. After being dropped by ABC, the group financed their own album in 1970 which they called The Young Ideas on Young Ideas DRP-5822. The group published another album called Through The Years on Century DRP-5822 in 1979. The original group consisted of Ronnie Hassinger on vocals, guitar and keyboards, Harry O on drums and vocals, Ron Russell on keyboards, bass and rhythm guitar, and Alan Gaumer on trumpet, keyboards and vocals. The lineup changed over time, but founding members Ronnie Hassinger, Harry O, and Ron Russell, stayed for the entire ride.
