Sad...for all their talent,I saw them a couple of years ago playing in a high school cafeteria.
Nothing beats an intimate setting though . Alan Holdsworth is playing 3 hours from me to a crowd of 50 people . Can't beat that . I'm thinking of bangin' in at work just to go . World renouned musician and 50 people , last time that happened I was 22 and saw Robert Fripp in Hells Kitchen in Manhattan . Sat right in front of him . He's a real funny guy in person , actually .
One of the great songs of the 'hippie' era. Interesting psychological play on words 'when the truth you've been told turns out to be lies' sounds like a lot of what is coming out of the MSM spinmeisters, pundits and Govt 'explainers' even today. 'And all the joy within you dies' those things that we were supposed to value and believe gave us happiness until the truth was revealed; basic society delivers happiness through the 'appearance of happiness' not the 'actual event'(this is akin to the 'self-actualization process that Maslow(?) (I think this is how his last name is spelled)wrote about) of personal happiness.
But in retrospect; the past sounds a lot like the present and possibly the future. So has anything really changed?
G Slick had one of those voices and the band was basically very unique and very good at what they did. I think White Rabbit was on the same LP as this song.
Great post r2r; brings back memories.

Honestly, this band was a little before my time but I always really liked this song. And there's always the message.:)
Good pick R2R . I like the whole album actually . They wrote a nice song about a schizophrenic . I think it was called Lather . Grace really had a great voice .
Your welcome. Like i said I didn't know much about them. Just went when they became the Starship and liked the tunes but knew they wrote about a lot of things.
Lather,Plastic fantastic Lover,etc.Great band.Brings back a lot of memory's.Thanks.Check out some more of their music rdy,i think you will find a lot to enjoy.
Hear is the link to "Lather" by Jefferson Airplane..
"Lather was thirty years old today and they took away all of his toys.."

Good one. Thanks
Thanks BD . Man it's been a long strange trip I've been on through this life . But hey , what would life be without all these surprises .
Wonderfully weird song -- on the Crown of Creation album.
(UAC, from the 60s -- that's "Utterly Airplane Crazy")
I could never hear enough J. Airplane/J. Starship, but plain old "Starship" got a tad too commercial.
Great peice of music history,rdy.
You betray your youth..
But well done for picking one of the greats.
An AWESOME song, a tad before my 'informative years' too, but loved the song the first time I heard it. Great pick!!!oh how I wished and still do sometimes now, that I had been old enough to go to WOODSTOCK!!
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas a freaky movie!!!!
Your comment gama makes me feel young. LOL
Hey Gamahuche,been finding a lot of morel's around here,:-)Yummmmm.
Glad to hear it! Lucky you!!
Our season really runs from Sept. till early Dec. but the very clever folks can find them just about all through the year.
Now just occasionally I yearn for the S. of France or N. Italy and truffle country!
I'll think about you with every bite:-)
If i could share with you i would.It's a treat that last a short time here.
"I'll think about you with every bite:-)"
OUCH!
Somebody to Love was written by Grace Slick's soon to be ex husband, Darby Slick. Was first recorded by the husband wife team in their band The Great Society.
Darby being one of those "Frisco" hippies used his proceeds to become a porn producer in the 80's. One of his movies was "The Girls of MASH"
Thanks for the info.
The girls of mash,lolol..Loretta Swit?That is funny.Wonder if Grace ever did any.Oh well,lol.
The Great Society wasn't a bad band,but it wasn't the Airplane.
