R.I.P. Marty Balin (1942-2018)
The Rock World has lost another great one with the passing of Paul Kantner. As a founding member of Jefferson Airplane, he was a pioneer in the San Francisco Folk Rock and Acid Rock sounds. He later formed the band Jefferson Starship that had tremendous success in the 70′s. I was able to see Starship perform twice in the mid-seventies and still have fond memories of those shows. Paul Kantner was the driving force that kept the Airplane and Starship going as members splintered off to pursue other projects. He has left behind a wonderful legacy of music.
Happy Birthday Grace Slick! Kicking off the weekend with Jefferson Airplane’s classic psychedelic song, White Rabbit.
