Jefferson Airplane 1966-1996 [FLAC]

Jefferson Airplane was an American rock band formed in San Francisco in 1965. A pioneer of the psychedelic rock movement, Jefferson Airplane was the first band from the San Francisco scene to achieve mainstream commercial and critical success.

The band performed at the three most famous American rock festivals of the 1960s Monterey (1967), Woodstock (1969) and Altamont (1969) as well as headlining the first Isle of Wight Festival. Their recordings were internationally successful, and they scored two US Top 10 hit singles and a string of Top 20 albums. Their 1967 record Surrealistic Pillow is regarded as one of the key recordings of the so-called Summer of Love and brought the group international recognition. Two chart hits from the album, "Somebody to Love" and "White Rabbit", are listed in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Songs of All Time".

Successor bands to Jefferson Airplane include Jefferson Starship and Starship; spinoffs include Hot Tuna and KBC Band. Jefferson Airplane was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.

Go Ride The Music & West Pole (1969) [2x DVD5]

This 2-DVD package comes straight from the estate of Rolling Stone co-founder Ralph J. Gleason (1917-1975)and features the heart and soul of the San Francisco psychedelic rock scene. The films contain fantastic archival footage of bands such as Jefferson Airplane, Quicksilver Messenger Service, and The Grateful Dead. Although much of the footage was aged, each segment was pieced together well and much of the original sound and color were preserved on the original film. This DVD set is definitely a must have for any Jefferson Airplane fan, as much of the first disc "Go Ride The Music" focuses on performances from Jefferson Airplane, with some laid-back Quicksilver Messenger Service thrown in for good measure.

"Go Ride The Music" and "West Pole" were initially aired on television as documentary specials, so each song is interspersed with commentary from host Ralph Gleason, where he interviews young people of the times outside many of the famous San Francisco hot spots for live music.

Both discs originally aired as one-hour television shows and were produced and hosted by Gleason in an effort to show that something was really happening here and most viewers didn’t know exactly what it was. “Go Ride The Music” features Jefferson Airplane performing at an intimate indoor venue and Quicksilver Messenger Service performing live in concert in the open air. There are also cameo appearances from David Crosby and Jerry Garcia. The second disc, “West Pole”, features a diverse range of acts including Grateful Dead, Steve Miller Band and others, including Ace of Cups, the first all-female electric rock band, in various settings, and takes a more analytical look of the music and the times.

Jefferson Airplane - Jefferson Airplane Loves You [3 CD, 1992/FLAC]

  

Jefferson Airplane Loves You is a three-CD boxed set of recordings by the San Francisco rock band Jefferson Airplane with extensive liner notes by Jeff Tamarkin, author of the Jefferson Airplane biography Got a Revolution: The Turbulent Flight of Jefferson Airplane.

Many of the tracks are previously unreleased live recordings or studio rehearsals, but several are lifted from prior Jefferson Airplane albums. A song by The Great Society, Grace Slick's original band, appears on the first CD.

A quadraphonic version of the "Volunteers" album was released, and a few of the songs are from this release, but have been remixed into conventional stereo. Because of the remix, any psychedelic movements of instruments from front-to-back or side-to-side behind the listener that were present in the quadraphonic version are lost.

The songs are arranged in chronological order beginning with a pre-Airplane solo by Marty Balin and ending with a 1972 live recording of the rarely heard "You Wear Your Dresses Too Short".

Jefferson Airplane - Ultimate Vol. 1 & 2 - 1963-1972 [6 CD]

Jefferson Airplane was an American rock band formed in San Francisco, California in 1965. A pioneer of counterculture-era psychedelic rock, the group was the first band from the San Francisco scene to achieve international mainstream success. They performed at the three most famous American rock festivals of the 1960s—Monterey (1967), Woodstock (1969) and Altamont (1969)—as well as headlined the first Isle of Wight Festival (1968). Their 1967 record Surrealistic Pillow is regarded as one of the key recordings of the "Summer of Love". Two hits from that album, "Somebody to Love" and "White Rabbit", are listed in Rolling Stone's "500 Greatest Songs of All Time".

This collection was assembled as a favor to Jeff Tamarkin, author of "Got a Revolution - The Turbulent Flight of the Jefferson Airplane". It has been used as a soundtrack not only to the book but also to many of the radio interviews that Jeff has done to promote the book. We felt that it was a shame not to "share a little joke with the world." So here it is.  This collection was treed by Brian Lehrhoff.

Jefferson Airplane - Share A Little Joke With The World [4 CD, 2012]

 Love, Haight and War. These were the ingredients for the American psychedelic rock movement of the Sixties. The world first got a whiff of it coming from the kitchen of a band called Jefferson Airplane. Other bands melted together (Grateful Dead, CSN) and drifted apart while the Airplane added passengers, jettisoned others and emerged in the mid 70s under a new crew, all the while selling records and setting trends
