it's had mixed reviews due to a change of style but i really like it. There is some really clever subtle stuff. My favourite so far!

Jefferson Airplane



JA was the soundtrack to my rebellious late-teen years (it don't mean sh*t to a tree)

Brilliant album, brilliant band...

Now I can't NOT play this...



I'm wondering if Jimmy Page ever listened to the acoustic instrumental 'Embryonic Journey' composed by Jefferson Airplane / Hot Tuna guitarist Jorma Kaukonen..?

Prompted by Jeff...



quote:
Of all the reissues to date of the Jefferson Airplane's classic catalog, the 2003-vintage expanded version of After Bathing at Baxter's is the most rewarding. The most ambitious album ever recorded by the band, and one of the finest psychedelic albums ever released, the reissue enhances its value, not only with a better transfer than the 1996-vintage upgrade, but some highly significant bonus tracks. First and foremost, and one of the great bonus cuts to have turned up to date in the entire CD era, is the live, long version of "The Ballad of You and Me and Pooneil," 11-plus minutes of some of the best psychedelic music ever committed to tape by anyone, and significantly different from the four-and-half-minute studio version finally used; this track by itself is worth the price of the CD. - Bruce Eder, All Music Guide

Gordon,

Finally got it after you making me aware of it a couple months ago and seeing Ewen posting it as well. They sound really tight on this set, the recording is very decent for that environment/period, and Bathing at Baxters era is my favorite JA.

Jorma now lives in Ohio - now that is weird Winker
