First Flights: The Jefferson Airplane!

from The Imbalanced History of Rock and Roll · host The Imbalanced History of Rock and Roll

Born of psychedelia (when "it" was still good) and the S.F. scene of the mid-1960s, the Imbalanced Boys dig into the formation and early ways of this R&RHOF (class of 1996) band this week! 2400 Fulton Street, their mansion's address, was Golden Gate Park-adjacent, and a short walk to the Grateful Dead's house "in the Haight." In the early daze of the scene, things were "still coming together." Later, Marty, Grace, Jorma, Paul, Jack & Spencer would rock the universe! In that atmosphere Blind Thomas Jefferson Airplane formed and took flight. Prime flying time, festival glory, plus years of commercial success can't prevent major changes, as the story unfolds. Catch the tale in this week's episode, plus some really groooovy tunes! All of our episodes are available where you get podcasts AND on our web site! Learn more about your ad choices.
