Discography
Young's discography has consisted of 8 studio albums, one live album, 13 compilation albums and 36 singles. Following short stints in several groups, Young became known in the 1980s for his baritone voice and his music genres rock, blue-eyed soul and pop. From 1983 to 1993, all of Young's studio albums were released during a contract he had with Columbia Records, and since 1994, Young has released albums through Vision, East West and SonyBMG Records. Four of Young's albums, No Parlez (1983), The Secret of Association (1985), Between Two Fires (1986), and Other Voices (1990) feature Welsh bassist Pino Palladino. Several of Young's most famous songs are covers of the originals, such as his 1983 hit "Wherever I Lay My Hat (That's My Home)" is a cover of an original by Marvin Gaye and his 1990 hit "Oh Girl" is a cover of an original by The Chi-Lites. In the past decade, Young has released very little popular new material, and has only one hit since 2000, which was "Come Back" in 2010, which he recorded with electronic dance music act Chicane, which featured on Chicane's 2010 album Giants. Young has however, since 2000, become famed for his frequent performances with his newfound backing band Los Pacaminos, with whom he released the album Los Pacaminos in 2002.
