The Young Rascals had a string of hits that defined a certain 1960s sound, blending rock energy with soulful vocals. Songs like 'Good Lovin'' and 'A Beautiful Morning' kept them on the radio through the late 1960s. They also released 'People Got to Be Free,' which reflected some of the social concerns of the time.
The Young Rascals formed in New York City around the mid-1960s with Felix Cavaliere on keyboards and vocals, Eddie Brigati on vocals, Gene Cornish on guitar, and Dino Danelli on drums. Their self-titled debut album came out in 1966. By the early 1970s, the lineup had changed and the group's run of hits had slowed.
