Jefferson Airplane was an American rock band from San Francisco, a pioneer of the LSD-influenced psychedelic rock movement. Successive incarnations of the band have performed under different names, reflecting changing times and performer lineups, known as Jefferson Starship, and later simply Starship before becoming Jefferson Starship The Next Generation in 1991. Jefferson Airplane was inducted in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996. The term "Jefferson airplane" is also slang for a use...Read More >

"To the looking glass world it was alice that said, I've a septer in hand, I've a crown on my head; Let the looking glass creatures, whatever they be, come dine with the red queen the white queen and me! Then fill up the glasses as quick as you can and sprinkle the table with buttons and bran; Put cats in the coffee, and mice in the tea and welcome queen alice with thirty times three!"

My last songs played list won't update. No response from the Mog Brain. This makes me sad, so I am going to play the Saddest Song In The World, the song that will just finish 'ya off if yer heart is broken, so don't listen unless you're in pretty good shape romantically ...or comfortably numb. Rickie Lee Jones covered this song; I like her version very much, too.... MORE

Of all the bands to emerge from the Summer of Love, perhaps none were more relentlessly psychedelic than Jefferson Airplane -- particularly their third and fourth albums, After Bathing at Baxter's and Crown of Creation respectively. Listening to both discs today is a startling experience, as they are some of the most relentlessly non-commercial, spirited, free form and abstract records of their era. "Lather," the lead-off track of Crown is a bizarre bit of whimsy about a thir... MORE

When I was growing up I remember car rides with my dad. He would either be playing jazz in his car or have some classic rock station on. I would be sitting in the back seat and a song would come on and I would instantly know the tune of the song, but not the words. My dad would hear me humming and turn around and go, "how do you know this song?" To tell you the truth I have no idea, it's like some of the old classics were programed in my head at birth.
I once talked to my mo... MORE

I'm in the middle of writing a story on Jefferson Airplane for a Mojo Summer Of Love magazine special and to stay in the mood I'm listening non-stop to various live concerts. I've been wallowing in freeform rockin' out as they make a rapid ascent from their rock-folk-blues beginning towards a free-flowing rush of sound, veering into intense, heady byways in the middle of songs before turning on a beat to the chorus or verse. At times it can sound like three separate bands the... MORE

On this date in 1994, my homegirl Grace Slick pleaded guilty to pointing a shotgun at police outside her California home. At her trial Grace said she was under stress due to the fact that her home had burned down the year before. She was sentenced to 200 hours of community service. Crazy chick. I love her, though. We have some very appropriate downloads to mark the day here.... MORE

I'm supposed to be writing a proposal for a final research due yesterday, but going through all those books depressed me, thinking undergrad will be done in less than a month and I haven't even started my final projects. Can't wait till friggin grad school, how sweet will it be to do research I actually like.
Anyways, I put on a Jefferson Airplane CD to calm me down while facebooking/stalking-ppl-through-facebook and decided to share one of my fav songs from Surrealistic Pil... MORE

It's a simple white rabbit on my left shoulder. I highly recommend getting a tattoo over a piercing. It's not nearly as painful as everyone tries to make it out to be and the finished product makes you feel oh so bad-ass. But it's a bitch to take care of whenever it's peeling and whatnot. But, yeah. I'll take a picture of it and post it on here eventually.... MORE

1This is definately just a song I put on when my friends and I are kicking back and mellowing/tripping out. It makes me wish I was born in 1946 opposed to 1986 so I could experience the 60's in San Francisco. Actually, I wish that all the time. I've been looking for a guitar tab (not that I could actually play it), but haven't been able to find one. Jorma Kaukonen's guitar is seriously out of this world in this song. There's no vocals, which is good because you really get a fe... MORE

(There's a link to some music at the bottom)
In later years, after i ran across a couple of things, i pretty lost all respect i ever had for Jefferson Airplane (in terms of honesty with their audience, not so much musically):
{A} Grace appeared on a talk show and said that, actually, all that stuff about revolution and smashing the system was just talk that the record label said would give them an image that would sell more records.
Maybe, maybe not. Either sh... MORE
