Jesse Collins Young, the lead singer of the band Youngbloods, has died at the age of 83. On Monday, his family, including his wife, shared the sad news about his passing.
Young’s band released one of the hit songs of the era, Get Together, which was composed to call for peace and brotherhood in the nation. The track was present in the band’s 1967 album and went on to take the 5th position on the Billboard Hot 100 for the next two years.
While the band split in 1972, Young picked up his solo career and released albums that were a mix of his vocals and exceptional guitar work. The musician is known to compose tunes for hit songs like Peace Song, Quick Sand, Four in the Morning, and Darkness Darkness.

The artist released his first two albums in 1964 and 1965, before he formed the Youngbloods with folk singer and guitarist Jerry Corbitt.
After their version of “Get Together” was reissued by RCA Records and featured in a 1969 public service announcement for the National Council of Christians and Jews, it became a global hit.
