Mellow Yellow is the fourth album from British singer-songwriter Donovan. It was released in the US in March 1967 but not released in the UK because of a continuing contractual dispute.
Side one1."Mellow Yellow" -- 3:47
2."Writer in the Sun" -- 4:33+
3."Sand and Foam" -- 3:19
4."The Observation" -- 2:23
5."Bleak City Woman" -- 2:24
Side two1."House of Jansch" -- 2:43
2."Young Girl Blues" -- 3:45
3."Museum" -- 2:54
4."Hampstead Incident" -- 4:41+
5."Sunny South Kensington" -- 3:48+
There is a later cd release with a shed load of bonus tracks on it but this is just the orininal 67 release. I have seen Donovan quite a few times and His voice is a tad too heavy on the vibrato these days but still excellent, He did the sunshine superman in full with a full orchestra at the royal albert hall a few years ago and that was mind blowing very strangely I had owned the album for years and never realised it was fully orchestrated so to see it as it was recorded was a real eye opener. I think there are a few other albums not yet uploaded in full so I will try and get them up too, check my original channel (tony peacock) I put hurdy gurdy man on that before it was restricted.
My favourite piece of Donovan trivia is the song "Fat Angel" that contains the line "Fly Jefferson Airplane" it turns out the line was sung about a dog in the studio called Jefferson airplane and not the band. which is strange considering I got into Donovan by noticing that fat angel was written by him on the back of the JA lp lol :)
Enjoy!

Donovan (born Donovan Philips Leitch, 10 May 1946) is a Scottish singer, songwriter and guitarist. He developed an eclectic and distinctive style that blended folk, jazz, pop, psychedelia, and world music (notably calypso). He has variously lived in Scotland, London, and California, and, since at least 2008, has lived in County Cork, Ireland with his family. Emerging from the British folk scene, Donovan shot to fame in the United Kingdom in early 1965 with a series of live performances on the pop TV series, Ready Steady Go!.
Having initially signed with Pye Records in 1965, he recorded a handful of singles and two albums in the folk music vein, but after signing a new contract with US CBS/Epic Records his popularity spread to other countries. After extricating himself from his original management contract, he began a long and successful collaboration with Mickie Most, one of the leading British independent record producers of the era, scoring a string of hits in the UK, the US and other countries.
His most successful singles in the 1960s included the early UK hits "Catch the Wind", "Colours" and "The Universal Soldier" in 1965, while "Sunshine Superman" topped the US Billboard Hot 100 chart (reached number two in Britain), and "Mellow Yellow" reached US number two the following year, with "Hurdy Gurdy Man" reaching the Top 5 on both shores in 1968. He was the first artist to be signed to CBS/Epic Records by then-new Administrative Vice-President Clive Davis. Donovan and Most collaborated on a series of hit albums and singles between 1965 and 1970. He became a friend of leading pop musicians including Joan Baez, Brian Jones, and The Beatles. He taught John Lennon a finger-picking guitar style in 1968. Donovan's commercial fortunes waned after parting with Most in 1969, and he left the industry for a time.
Donovan continued to perform and record sporadically in the 1970s and 1980s. His musical style and hippie image was scorned by critics, especially after the advent of punk rock. He withdrew from performing and recording several times during his career, but he underwent a revival in the 1990s with the emergence of the rave scene in Britain. He recorded the 1996 album Sutras with producer and long-time fan Rick Rubin and in 2004 released a new album, Beat Cafe. Donovan was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012 and the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2014.

Donovan and Most collaborated on a series of hit albums and singles between 1965 and 1970. He became a friend of leading pop musicians including Joan Baez, Brian Jones, and The Beatles. He taught John Lennon a finger-picking guitar style in 1968. Donovan's commercial fortunes waned after parting with Most in 1969, and he left the industry for a time.
Donovan continued to perform and record sporadically in the 1970s and 1980s. His musical style and hippie image was scorned by critics, especially after the advent of punk rock. He withdrew from performing and recording several times during his career, but he underwent a revival in the 1990s with the emergence of the rave scene in Britain. He recorded the 1996 album Sutras with producer and long-time fan Rick Rubin and in 2004 released a new album, Beat Cafe. Donovan was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012 and the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2014.
