	Jefferson Airplane
		Jefferson Airplane formally evolved into Jefferson Starship in 1974, achieving considerably more commercial success in the Seventies than the Airplane had known in the previous decade.
		Jefferson Starship actually outlasted Jefferson Airplane, though the latter group did reassemble in 1989 for a reunion album and tour.
		Grace Slick (of Jefferson Airplane), is born in Chciago, Illinois.

	The Jefferson Airplane
		To put things in perspective, the Airplane's strongest local competition was the short-lived Janis Joplin, on the one hand, and the Grateful Dead, on the other.
		The Airplane went for the loosest, most spaced-out and effect-laden production they could approximate on their otherwise-routine pop songs, added some dreadful jams and sound collages, and segued all the tracks together, hoping to spew forth an American Sgt.
		This is the only easily accessible documentation of the Airplane's famous live jamming, if you like that kind of stuff - their other recorded performances are either unenlightening, thanks to their relentless early-era professionalism (Monterey), or hard to find (none of the official Woodstock records really gives the band its full due).

	Jefferson Airplane: Crown Of Creation : Music Reviews : Rolling Stone
		The Jefferson Airplane, for all their commercial success and artistic importance, have had a peculiarly checkered recording career; after hearing each album in toto one gets the impression that it somehow could have been better—even if what we are given is quite admirable in many aspects.
		Obviously one of the strong points of the Airplane, as well as the source of the group's problem, is the fact that the Jefferson Airplane has among its personnel a number of distinct and forcible stylists: Grace Slick, Jorma Kaukonen, and Marty Balin are only the most obvious figures in the group in this respect.
		If the Airplane can avoid the pitfalls of mannered stylization there is every possibility that they will remain among the best solid rock units in the country—and perhaps then we may get, one day, the completely satisfactory album the Airplane should be capable of recording.

	The History of Rock Music. Jefferson Airplane: biography, discography, reviews, links
		The Jefferson Airplane were partially accepted by the Establishment because they were still living in the world of pop music, because the folk and blues roots were still visible, because the melody was still the center of mass.
		I Jefferson Airplane, approfondendo un'idea che era stata dei Byrds, crearono la musica psichedelica come la conobbero i giovani della borghesia, crearono lo standard a cui si sarebbero ispirati i musicisti commerciali (i Beatles, per esempio).
		I Jefferson Airplane non sono semplicemente un complesso di musica rock; rappresentano ormai un punto di riferimento per l'elite dei musicisti della Bay Area, sia per quegli spiriti liberi e nomadi che non compaiono nei libri mastri dei discografici sia per i membri di altre famiglie.

	A San Francisco Music Chronicle: Jefferson Starship
		Long John Silver, released in 1972, is a Jefferson Airplane classic played loosely, the band seemingly setting up microphones in the studio and going for it, the result being a little unfocused, the vocals a bit dry and a couple of the songs - "Easter?" and "The Son of Jesus" - badly crafted.
		Looking back at early criticism, it's obvious that the Jefferson Airplane's career and the projects that followed were controversial, and controversy was not a level plain from which a definitive, long-lasting assessment could be made.
		Jorma Kaukonen's finger-picking solo style was in some ways unmatched to the early Airplane sound, and a few of his early solos sound truncated and uneven as he tries to find a place within the bands' huge cavern of sound.

		The Airplane's famous appearance on the Sullivan show, performing "White Rabbit", has been frequently re-screened and is notable for its pioneering use of the Chroma key process to simulate the Airplane's customary psychedelic lightshow.
		The accompanying tour was everything the album wasn't (a success) but their revival was short-lived, and thus Jefferson Airplane was officially disbanded for good.
		The role of the American Forces Network (AFN) with powerful medium wave radio transmitters situated in West Germany and "pirate radio" ships in the North Sea bringing US hits to the ears of European youth should also be recognised as a force that extended the global reach of West Coast music in the 1964-1972 period.

		Jefferson Airplane was the first of the 60's San Francisco bands to hit big, and their photogenic, modern, countercultural, psychedelic, light-show-backed image appeared on magazine covers and the Ed Sullivan Show.
		While Jefferson Airplane will remain forever of its own time, it also transcends it; indeed some of the politics expressed on their late 60's/early 70's releases are sounding more relevant now than they have in decades.
		Jefferson Airplane's set was marred by violence right from the start, with hopped-up Hell's Angels savagely beating concertgoers with pool cues at random.

		On the other hand, Airplane haters who thought they'd found a similar soul and are now on the threshold of disappointment, perk up your ears: there is a percent of truth in every joke.
		Right now this is chronologically the earliest Jefferson Airplane live album, but actually it had to spend thirty years lying in the archives before those good dudes whose only aim in life is to preserve all the ragged glory of the Sixties took it out, cleaned and polished it and made it generally available.
		Contrary to legend, Jefferson Airplane weren't the first "major" band to have a rarities-and-outtakes collection released - earlier precedents like Traffic definitely come to mind - but they were certainly one of the first bands to prove such collections could be more than worthwhile.

		Naming their group after the blues singer Blind Lemon Jefferson (1897-1929) [1] they drew inspiration from The Beatles, The Byrds and the Lovin' Spoonful and built a local following at the Matrix Club.
		It was Grace who pulled the band clear of the softer folk scene towards a more adventurous and experimental style in which jazz, blues and rock traditions all played a part.
		By 1974 Kantner had formed Jefferson Starship with Aynsley Dunbar on percussion and others and at least four albums were recoded under that name.

		Later in 1965, they signed to RCA and recorded an album for release the following year called Jefferson Airplane Takes Off.
		Grace Slick left Starship in 1988, having become disillusioned with the band's new pop image amd swearing never to perform with them again.
		The Beatles have always stressed the influence that the Beach Boys had on their musical development (especially Pet Sounds), but it seems likely that other music from the West Coast also spread eastward to play a key part in making pop music more symphonic and less predictable than it had been before 1965.

	Jefferson Airplane: The Essential Jefferson Airplane - PopMatters Music Review
		I think the Airplane has had some good songs, usually the ones that weren't the big hits, but overall I don't feel that their place in rock history has as much to do with good music as it does the time and place from whence they came.
		Hell, the Airplane was first compiled during its original tenure on The Worst of Jefferson Airplane, and continued to be on and on, resulting in what should have been the exhaustive 2400 Fulton Street, but money has to be made and new converts converted!
		And The Essential Jefferson Airplane is just as good as any other mostly-inclusive compilation the band has put out, although some things have been left out, such as "Triad", and I wouldn't have minded hearing "My Best Friend" on here, which I always felt was actually spooky with Slick's vocals doing something a bit different.
