had a head injury, was shaken by the experience and began to "reassess his priorities". He did leave the Limeliters in that year, noting in an interview that he had lost interest in folk music and "got tired of the three chord songs...[and]... by that time people were beginning to write things like Rod McKuen's work." Solo career As well as the folk-oriented 1957 solo record Here We Go, Baby, Yarbrough made other albums before joining the Limeliters. The sleeve notes of the 1957 record Come and Sit by My Side noted that Yarbrough [brought] "folk music up to date, sings in a manner that modern listeners will understand and appreciate...[a]...novel, youthful approach to the old songs." In 1958 he made an album with Marilyn Child. Robert Sherman said "both of these vital, young performers have dramatic, highly personal styles, yet their voices and delivery are perfectly suited to each other," After leaving the Limeliters, Yarbrough had intended to sail around the world, but while making plans for this, appeared as a guitar player in a November 1964 episode of Wagon Train.

In 1966, Yarbrough reflecting on his time with the Limeliters, said that it had all been "intellectual...[with]...Lou Gottlieb and Alex Hasseliv to sign autographs and be scintillating at after-show parties", but as a solo performer he needed to come to terms with more direct attention from his fans, even being regarded as a "sex symbol". Yarbrough had a working relationship with Rod McKuen and by 1968 had recorded around
