I was lucky enough to see the Airplane reunion at The Filmore in SF a decade (or so!) ago...

They opened with this song, and I'm telling ya, I was instantly transported back to that era, with those crazy sounding amps. It rings San Francisco 60's!!!

What an incredible voice... I have seen her shots recording in a studio, several feet away from a microphone, and still this incredible vocal power comes through... 99% of modern vocalists have to be placed less than a foot from a mike to get any power...

So nice to hear a woman who uses her vocal cords!

Because you weren't there. Now just listen and maybe the ghosts will answer. {#Meditate}

much as I love this song and Grace Slick's voice, I have to say that Jim Carey's version in The Cable Guy is one of my favourites..

The 60's hate you.

Literally I am 60 and I concur with you, Hannio. Anyone that thinks the sixties was crap would of not been welcomed to those free spirited days of bold idealism. And yes, I still wear my freak flag proudly.

This studio cut rocks, but the live version on the Monterrey Pop Festival CD is pretty weak.

I miss the innocence and optimism of that time. I wish they'd known then what they know now about how free love and do your own thing could be twisted into something completely opposite of love and freedom. This song is a good reminder to me of what life used to be like before things went horribly wrong...

Miss you so much, Ann...

rest in peace...

Great tune, but this sounds exactly like a song from 1967 to me - nothing about this song or this band ever struck me as being very "far ahead of their time".
