  1. The Youngbloods
    The Youngbloods recorded „Get Together“ at RCA Studios in New York. The single originally stalled at No. 62, but its 1969 reissue reached No. 5; The Dave Clark Five later took their cover version into the U.K. Top 10.
  2. The Youngbloods
    According to available sources, The Youngbloods did not appear on The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson because of conflicts before the broadcast. Johnny Carson claimed that the band had complained about the set, lighting, sound and the entire show, while guitarist and pianist Lowell Levinger said the band had not been treated like guests. Another source says the group left because of poor sound quality. The band had originally planned to perform two songs, a new song and “Get Together,” but after the show ran long, the new song was dropped and The Youngbloods left.
  3. The Youngbloods
    The Youngbloods received a gold certification for their version of “Get Together.” The song was written by Chet Powers (Dino Valenti) following the assassination of John F. Kennedy in 1963; before The Youngbloods, it had been recorded by the Kingston Trio, We Five, and Jefferson Airplane.
