1965 Debut Featuring Van Morrison Reissued On 180g Vinyl LP!
Contains The Classic Garage Band Anthem "Gloria"!
Rolling Stone 500 Greatest Songs of All Time - "Gloria" - Rated 211/500!
Released in 1965, The "Angry" Young Them was the Northern Irish rock and roll band's debut album featuring six songs originally penned by group member Van Morrison including the hit track "Gloria". As with several Decca releases of the period, the name of the group was conspicuously absent from the front cover and on the back of the LP they were introduced as The "Angry" Young Them with an essay on this theme declaring: "These five young rebels are outrageously true to themselves. Defiant! Angry! Sad! They are honest to the point of insult!"
The band's 1964 recording of "Gloria" was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999. "Gloria" is ranked at No. 211 on Rolling Stone's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.
