Paul Kantner
and
Signe Anderson
providing harmonies and backup. (
Anderson
's lead vocal on
"Chauffeur Blues"
indicated she was at least the equal of her successor,
Grace Slick
, as a belter.) The music consisted mostly of
folk-rock
love songs, the most memorable of which were
"It's No Secret"
"Come up the Years."
(There was also a striking version of
Dino Valente

"Get Together"
recorded years before
the Youngbloods
