Lou Josie was not part of Ever-Green Blues, nor did not write for them. This is another LIE where he gets unfounded credit. Mercury Records gave Grass Roots Ever-Green recordings to do over, this one and 'Midnight Confessions"
@JACKHERMAN1947 Actually LT Josie discovered this group and wrote most of the tunes on their first album. He also produced their first two albums under the name Jimmy King. He was not a member but their manager, writer, producer, and publisher.
Thanks for posting these tunes! I played drums with a group called Filet of Soul in the late 60's, and we opened for Evergreen Blues Band at a UC Riverside gig in 1969, and these songs sound like the same guys. They had one song I especially liked, called "The Moon is High, and So Am I" - do you have that tune? It was on an album they released that year.
thanks for posting this gem!

you would have to get that from Tom BRAY the horn for Evergreen Blues, but he's busy with Neil YOUNG at this time........

@JACKHERMAN1947 Why would Mercury Records be so generous to'give'
arranged, recorded material, to another record label, for TV regulars,"The
Grassroots"? The 1967 "Midnight Confessions" appears to be the arrangement
simply cloned by the Grassroots, in 1968. As a collector, I'm pleased to have
the Ever-Green Blues '67 recording. Unfortunately, I don't have the correct
gadgets to add it to YT. I wish someone would put it on. Enjoy it!
