Bands like The Grateful Dead, Big Brother And The Holding Component Company, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Mother Earth, The Steve Miller Reviews Band, The Electric Flag and Moby Group adopted the freewheeling spirit of Editorial the Beatnik culture and its folk-based structures. Additionally, the various Reader Feedback roots backgrounds and musical genres were intermingled in the evolving Best of the Year scene. At the Fillmore, it was not unusual to see a jazz great like Miles Davis sharing a bill with The Grateful Dead. In 1967 The Monterey Pop Festival connected San Francisco rock to the larger national culture. One of the bands at the festival was Jefferson Airplane. Formed in the mid 1960’s, the core members Marty Balin, Paul Kantner, Jack Casady and Jorma Kaukonen merged their blues and folk backgrounds into a psychedelic rock sound. Their first release, The Jefferson Airplane Takes Off (1966) included songs like “It’s No Secret” and “Coming Up The Years” which expanded their local fan base. In 1967, there was a confluence of events that lifted the Jefferson Airplane to stardom. Bill Graham became the group’s manager. They appeared at the Monterey Pop Festival and singer Grace Slick (Great Society) became a member. She brought two songs “Somebody To Love” and “White Rabbit” that appeared on the breakthrough album, “Surrealistic Pillow” (1967). In 1969, The Airplane hit a cultural zenith with appearances at Woodstock and Altamont. Later that year, Volunteers was released. RELATED POSTS In Volunteers, the band found a collective voice, especially in the volatile JENNIFER political landscape that tore the country apart in 1968 and 1969. HIGDON: Cold Speakers Corner has issued an audiophile vinyl re-master that showcases Mountain the pathos, erstwhile activism and narratives that defined the era. The (comp. opera) – original album title Volunteers Of America was coined by Marty Balin who … was awoken by a refuse hauling truck from the charity of the same name. Eventually, the simplified title stuck. While Volunteers did not have the $ August 25, air-friendly singles like Surrealistic Pillow, the more sophisticated musical 2016 nuances resonate. Side 1 opens with a signature Paul Kantner anthem, “We Can Be Together”. Framed by a straight ahead rhythm and Jorma Jimmy Kaukonen’s jagged guitar licks, Kantner reflects on the ambivalence of Witherspoon – 1969, mixing alienation with hope. The initial lyric, “We are all outlaws in Spoon’s Life – the eyes of America” says it all. The Airplane’s underrated three-part Isabel … harmonies and unison vocals have a graceful eloquence. An ethereal $ April 23, vocalese bridge and chord shift leads into the most renowned rock and 2015 roll profane warning (…”Up against the wall m…………”). Some agile Nick Hopkins piano riffs bring things to a satisfying close.

  • Jefferson's Tree of Liberty 9/3/08 2:17 AM
    Music Review: Jefferson Starship - Jefferson's Tree Of Liberty 9/3/08 2:17 AM Blogcritics is an online magazine, a community of writers and readers from around the globe. Publisher: Eric Olsen REVIEW Music Review: Jefferson Starship - Jefferson's Tree Of Liberty Written by David Bowling Published August 31, 2008 Life is good as founding member Paul Kantner remains in control of The Jefferson Starship. Long time cohort David Freiberg is still around as is guitarist Mark Aguilar. Cathy Richardson is now the lead female vocalist. She starred in the off Broadway production about Janis Joplin’s life. Richardson’s voice is powerful and pure but is closer to a Grace Slick sound than Joplin’s, which should come as no surprise. Even Marty Balin joins the Starship for a couple of tunes. Jefferson’s Tree Of Liberty finds the Starship traveling in a new and unique musical direction. Succinctly put, this is a folk album. Songs such as “Pastures Of Plenty” by Woody Guthrie, “Chimes Of Freedom” by Bob Dylan, and “I Ain’t Marching Anymore” by Phil Ochs are all presented in classic vocal form. Kantner and The Jefferson Starship can’t quite escape their rock ‘n’ roll roots as the instrumental background veers from the classic folk formula. Think the Weavers in rock mode. The first track sets the tone for most of the album. The old Weavers tune, “Wasn’t That A Time,” features the voices of Kantner, Freiberg, and Richardson. Richardson provides a wonderful balance on most of the harmonies contained on the album.

Red House Records is pleased to announce the April 5, 2011 release of Steady As She Goes, the first new album in twenty years from the legendary Hot Tuna. Featuring Rock & Roll Hall of Famers and Jefferson Airplane founding members Jack Casady and Jorma Kaukonen, the band celebrates over four decades of playing together. Now, with the release of their Red House debut, they prove that they remain one of the most innovative bands in American music. Why did it take so long for Hot Tuna to record a new album? “Well, it just worked out that way,” Kaukonen says. “Hot Tuna never quit playing. The moment just wasn’t right before; now it is, and we have a great project to show for it.” Returning to upstate New York decades after Kaukonen and Casady first played Woodstock, they went into Levon Helm’s studio over the winter to record twelve new tracks with mandolin player Barry Mitterhoff and drummer Skoota Warner (Cyndi Lauper, Matisyahu, Santana). Working with famed producer Larry Campbell (who Kaukonen worked with on his last solo album River of Time) the band plugged in for the electric Hot Tuna album that fans have been waiting for. Taking no prisoners, the band tears into it, kicking off with the rocking Americana number “Angel of Darkness” (co- written by Kaukonen and Campbell).

  • Addio a Paul Kantner, “The Brain” Dei Jefferson Airplane
    Addio a Paul Kantner, “the brain” dei Jefferson Airplane È morto a 74 anni il chitarrista Paul Kantner, uno dei fondatori della band Jefferson Airplane. Lo riporta il San Francisco Chronicle. Protagonista della scena musicale della west coast americana, Kantner è stato stroncato giovedì 28 gennaio da un attacco di cuore a San Francisco, la città in cui era nato il 17 marzo 1941. Chi era Paul Kantner? Ecco cosa scrive sul sito ufficiale dei Jefferson Airplane Greg Gildersleeve (1998). Anche se non ha mai scritto o cantato come voce leader nessun brano di successo, Paul Kantner ha avuto un impatto maggiore di qualsiasi altro membro sui Jefferson Airplane/Starship. È suo il record della più lunga, ininterrotta appartenenza (19 anni) alla band, ed è stato a volte l’unico membro delle origini della band presente in eventi con JA. Il suo interesse per la fantascienza l’ha portato a trasformare i Jefferson Airplane nei Jefferson Starship, e, in tutto questo, ha presieduto alla democrazia sregolata e talvolta disordinata della band. Se Marty Balin era l’anima della band, e Grace Slick il suo volto, Paul Kantner potrebbe esserne considerato, the brain, il cervello. | 1 Addio a Paul Kantner, “the brain” dei Jefferson Airplane L’unico nativo di San Francisco tra gli iniziatori degli Airplane/Starship, Paul Lorin Kantner nasce il 17 marzo 1941, da Paul S. e Cora Lee (Fortier) Kantner. Paul aveva un fratellastro e una sorellastra parecchio più grandi. Quando Paul aveva otto anni, sua madre morì; e, ricorderà in seguito, non gli fu consentito di partecipare al suo funerale, ma fu portato al circo.

    a blues album, Fire Red Moon, on the Blind Pig label. A mix of originals and covers, it’s highlighted by “Lie To Me,” with lead vocals by Noah Hunt, of the Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band. There are also renditions of Robert Johnson’s “Crossroads,” an instrumental take on Albert King’s “Born Under A Bad Sign,” a cover of Muddy Waters’ “Rollin’ And Tumblin’,” and originals that reflect Chaquico’s time spent listening to Cream, Hendrix, ZZ Top, and other acts.
