The Youngbloods

San Francisco, California

Working the early '60s folk circuit, Jessie Colin Young would play sets with Jerry Corbitt. They began touring as a duo, until Corbitt introduced Young to multi-instrumentalist Lowell "Banana" Levinger. Levinger recruited drummer Joe Bauer, and the Youngbloods full line-up was complete. Their combination of folk, rock and jug band elements drew comparisons to the Lovin' Spoonful.
