Their lead guitarist Jorma Kaukonen was a creative innovator of the psychedelic sound, with lots of classic riffs sometimes made up on the fly. He and his old pal (JA bassist) Jack Casady split off and formed Hot Tuna, which lasted through the present day. Saw them live a few times and really love em’ !

Grace was with a band called Great Society. Airplane's lead singer Signe Toly Anderson had a child and quit to care for it. Airplane knew Grace and asked her to join. THAT VOICE still rings down the decades. Grace is still with us at my last knowledge. There is another YT video that features her isolated voice track from this session and also from White Rabbit. It's a must to really feel the quality of her voice.

The Jefferson Airplane were part of the psychedelic wave of music that came out of San Francisco from 1965 to 1967. Grace Slick originally sang with The Great Society then was recruited by The Jefferson Airplane when their original singer, Signe Anderson, got pregnant and dropped out of the group. This is a classic song from The Summer of Love. Grace's vocals were extraordinary. She was incredible.

I really like Grace's song "Mexico".

Grace Slick went to a small liberal arts college, called Finch College for two years. One of her classmates was Tricia Nixon, daughter of then Vice President and future President Nixon. I heard Grace tell a story about being invited to a 10th year reunion that Tricia hosted in the White House. Apparently, the Secret Service didn't realize that the "Grace Wing" on the invitation list was the psychedelic rock star. She invited infamous political radical. Abby Hoffman to be her date and the two of them planned to spike the punch with some LSD. They thought it would be fun to see President Nixon tripping out and that our might do him some good. For better or worse, the Secret Service did recognize Hoffman and barred the two of them from the party.

I'm so glad that you did Jefferson Airplane! But you should do some of their deep tracks-- they intentionally avoided writing 'hit singles' after the success of "Somebody To Love" and "White Rabbit" from their 'Surrealistic Pillow' album. The band was more interested in doing improvisational live music and didn't want to have to reproduce the exact studio sound of a hit single when they were jamming experimentally on the festival circuit. They were also more interested in playing big festivals year-round than touring to support album sales, so they concentrated on writing for 60s festival audiences instead of making radio-friendly pop. I think their work on their next three albums ('After Bathing At Baxter's,' 'Crown of Creation,' and 'Volunteers') was as fine as anything that anyone else was doing in counter-cultural psychedelic rock in the late 1960s. Jefferson Airplane definitely deserves more credit! :)

Nice to see you mention the drumming. Spencer Dryden was the Airplane's drummer from 1966 to '70 and was a very musical drummer with a lot of interesting beats and fills. For some reason, he's always the least-mentioned Airplane member. He had a very colourful career and life, starting out as a jazz drummer, switching to rock & roll by playing with Roy Buchanan, then joining the LA folk-rock band The Ashes (which morphed into The Peanut Butter Conspiracy after he left) before being asked to join the Airplane. He came up with a lot of great drum parts while in the Airplane: the bolero snare drum beat in White Rabbit, the Gene Krupa/Bo Diddley tom-tom intro to She Has Funny Cars, the dynamic build-up on his floor tom on Today, etc. After leaving the Airplane, he did another musical shift and joined the country-rock band New Riders Of The Purple Sage, and later on was part of a Bay Area supergroup called The Dinosaurs. Unfortunately, the rock & roll lifestyle took its toll on him, and he died at age 66 in 2005. One really fascinating bit of trivia is that he was Charlie Chaplin's nephew, a fact he kept hidden even from his fellow Airplane members until shortly before his death - he wanted to make it on his own merits, not on his family connections.

The whole album is mesmerizing. The male lead singer Marty Balin was also great but his voice is lighter, providing a counterpoint to Grace. I think they all wrote songs. Sadly he passed a few years ago and so did Paul Kantner recently. Grace has been a miraculous survivor through her years of substance abuse. She has always been opinionated, outspoken and rebellious. I think that’s why she sounds so fierce!

Grace often sang "but in your bed, baby, I'm afraid you don't know where it is". This was their 2nd LP, the first w/Grace. The LP is folk-rock and the LP is a must listen, perfectly catching the vibe of the time. All their trademarks are here, great harmonies/vocals, tight bass, rhythm and lead guitar with absolutely solid drumming. The next LP is pure LSD and a completely different sound, but much stronger in a lot of ways. If you want more Grace listen to the song Two Heads. Jefferson Airplane were the closing act on Saturday night at Woodstock, following The Who. They finally got on stage Sunday morning and still put out a great performance.

Jim Carey does a great karaoke version of this track in the movie Cable Guy.

I've always loved this song. Orange County CA surf punk band "Agent Orange" did a pretty awesome version of this. You may have heard AO if you've played GTA or Tony Hawk skating games.

Went to Knebworth , end of the seventies I think, to see Jefferson Airplane but Grace had got paralytically drunk in Berlin and couldn't appear
