Description
Near mint, like new original yellow vinyl LP release from The Young Bros., High Energy Rock, issued in 1978 (GDS 781136). Yellow wax LP and cover – still in the shrinkwrap – are in top near mint condition, simply gorgeous.
Here’s Ken Scott’s enthusiastic review in his Archivist:
“This one's about as gnarly as they get. ZZ Top move over cuz this thing is relentless fast hard-rockin' butt-kickin' Texas-style biker boogies jammin' with nothing as gracious as a keyboard note to sully the tuneage. It's raw. It's loud. It's three long-haired brothers Allen, Ronnie, and Terry Young playing lead, bass, and rhythm guitar respectively, rounded out by Kenny Mooney on drums, custom-recorded in their home on 4 track. The leads absolutely shred, sometimes with spacey pedal effects. Technically this isn't "Jesus Music", though the spiritual angle is clearly evident. Lots of references to "the Spirit", the afterlife, resisting the devil, love. 'Just Setting My Soul Free' states "my soul is indestructible along with the Spirit of Christ". Lyrically simple and a bit obtuse and I doubt any Pulitzers will be given for lines like "gonna chase away this feeling, this feeling so sad, gonna chase away the sadness, change it to glad", and titles like 'Space Child' will leave you scratchin' your head. Certainly doesn't fit into the norm, but hey that's a plus. Deceptively benign sun-in-the-clouds cover and sunshiny yellow vinyl masking the fierce monster that lurks within. If Barnabas' first LP was too sweet for ya, get a line on the Young Brothers. I can only wipe the sweat.”
