Customer Reviews:

Two outstanding tunes.......2003-10-14

Of this CD's 10 tunes 8 are lackluster to incompetent, and two shine out brightly in the rock universe, Get Together, and the even more brilliant Darkness Darkness. Every rock collection MUST HAVE Darkness, Darkness.

MOST UNDERRATED BAND OF THE 60S'.......2000-05-09

IF YOU LOOK DEEPLY INTO THIS ELECTRONIC MAZE THAT AMAZON HAS CONCOCTED TO HIDE THE YOUNGBLOODS TALENTS FROM THE WORLD, YOU WILL FIND A CD TITLED "EUPHORIA" WHICH HAS 25 OF THIS GREAT BAND'S SONGS. THE YOUNGBLOODS NEVER RECEIVED THE ACCLAIM DUE THEM IN THEIR TIME AND WILL NEVER MAKE IT INTO THE "HALL OF FAME" BUT THEY WERE BETTER AND LASTED LONGER THAN THE OTHER "JUG BAND" OF THAT ERA, THE LOVIN' SPOONFUL. SO GROW YOUR COFFEE JESSE COLIN YOUNG AND THANKS FOR SOME GREAT MUSIC.

OK.......1999-04-14

Jesse Colin Young has one of the best voices in all of 60's rock; however, he never reached his full potential, largely because of a lack of good material. The only cut on this compilation to make a commercial impact was "Get Together"; however,the best cut by far is the haunting "Darkness, Darkness", which by itself is worth the price of admission. The rest of the album is lightweight and forgettable. Buy it anyway, just for the good parts.

album contains one of the all time greatest rock songs........1998-08-24

Ok. Everybody's heard "Come baby now, lets get together, . . . ." But, no reviewer has said anything about "Darkness, Darkness". A haunting "fiddle" riff and strong rock pathos like no other. What passion. Jesse Colin Young has never sung anything like this and probably never will. This song is one of the top 25 rock & roll songs of all time.

One of my personal favorites!.......1998-07-24

This album stands as a classic piece of rock history.The chart topper"Get Together"has definitely made it's mark on the airwaves over the years,but the emotional subtleties of"Sunlight",it's dreamlike qualities,cut me all the way to the bone!.....Passion! This compilation is a "must hear"for music lovers of all generations.
