The Soul of a City Boy - Track 3
Twenty-two-year-old Perry Miller was spotted by pianist/composer Bobby Scott at Folk City in Greenwich Village and signed to Capitol Records under the auspices of Scott's employer, Bobby Darin. Scott took Miller, now renamed Jesse Colin Young, into New York's A&R Studios in the spring of 1964, and they emerged four hours later with this 31-minute, 11-track acoustic-guitar-and-vocal debut album.

Take a look/listen to the LivingLegendMusic series of interviews w/him here on the Tube. There's not an OUNCE of bitterness or regret. He's smart, erudite, self-deprecating, interesting and at 70 still sings his ass off. He didn't squander ANYTHING. Music biz weasels helped themselves to a great deal of what he generated, though. He is a startlingly gifted songwriter and should be in the RnR or Songwriters HOF, but sadly has been overlooked. Suffer fools gladly? No. D-bag? No.11 years ago

This was the best version of this song on YouTube. My dad used to play this when I was a kid. Drank his share of whiskey too. Today would have been his 89th birthday. Happy birthday, old man.12 years ago

@abrekutu yeah whatever. People once were individuals in this country. That sure as hell is a fantasy nowadays. I don't think Jesse is an ahole because this CD is like 400 dollars. But I can't change that either.14 years ago

Train robbin's too dangerous, that's for sure. Especially since nothing's on there anyone wants a lot. But that's an old song. I don't know if Jesse blew it. But he could have done some gigs with the Drifters or The Embers and then who knows?14 years ago
