![]() Volunteers (1969) [ larger cover art ] |
If you want to get to heaven
Over on the other shore
Stay out of the way of the blood stained bandit
Oh good shepherd feed my sheep
One for Paul, one for Silas
One for to make my heart rejoice
Can't you hear my lambs a callin
Oh good shepherd feed my sheep
If you want to get to heaven
Over on the other shore
Stay out of the way of the long tongue liar
Oh good shepherd feed my sheep
One for Paul, one for Silas
One for to make my heart rejoice
Can't you hear my lambs a callin
Oh good shepherd feed my sheep
If you want to get to heaven
Over on the other shore
Stay out of the way of the gun shot devil
Oh good shepherd feed my sheep
One for Paul, one for Silas
One for to make my heart rejoice
Can't you hear my lambs a callin
Oh good shepherd feed my sheep

And if there was ever a need for an anthem for those times, the title track would do it. Their version of Wooden Ships made me get the meaning of that song. I agree, fantastic. |
| emh | Posted: Mar 26, 2013 - 14:17 Love this album. Keep hoping RP will play We Can Be Together. "We are forces of chaos and anarchy, Everything they say we are, we are.... And we are very proud of ourselves" |
| paraclete (Citrus Heights, CA) | Posted: Jan 22, 2013 - 19:57 One of my favorite songs of all time. It's one of those that I MUST stop, look up with eyes closed, and let this wash over me. Ahhhhhhh! |
| martinc (Ottawa Canada) | Posted: Dec 22, 2012 - 11:34 Does this not define the acid guitar sound |

| jagdriver (Just a nod and a wink south of Paradise) | Posted: Aug 27, 2012 - 12:12 One of their best albums! |

| bachbeet | Posted: Jun 16, 2012 - 17:22 Never liked this one as much as some of their others. The guitar is the best part. A 6 from me. |
| hippiechick (topsy turvy land) | Posted: Jun 16, 2012 - 17:19 Wow! A real oldie but goodie |

| MoM$CooKin (AnAlteredState) | Posted: Feb 10, 2012 - 19:24 In case you forgot what the interior of the album cover looked like..I added feet for scale..Breakfast of champions.. http://8020.photos.jpgmag.com/2222887_92473_ed1a1596ad_p.jpg |
| MoM$CooKin (AnAlteredState) | Posted: Feb 10, 2012 - 19:11 whoa..this brought me waaaay back.. |

Even the little bird, Ben-Jammin' Houdini Tai-Tan-ic-a Jackson² (Squared) enjoyed singing along with this great older classic and that has to count for a lot. =D |
| bluedot (Long Beach, CA) | Posted: Jan 09, 2012 - 23:24 Nice version of this old folk song...cool GTR! |
| kurtster (Back in Ohiya, for now ...) | Posted: Nov 07, 2011 - 12:14 Have this on Quad vinyl. Love it. |

| jpgr69 (Portland, Oregon) | Posted: Sep 05, 2011 - 13:49 This was so refreshing after that awful White Rabbit cover! |
| kcar | Posted: Sep 05, 2011 - 13:48 Bobzane, have you come down from that May 2 acid trip? Definitely a song from the 60s but it still really works for me. |
| sirdroseph (Yes) | Posted: Aug 05, 2011 - 04:20 This is very nice, sounds kinda like Jon Redfern which is a good thing. |
| ScottishWillie (The Scottish Lowlands) | Posted: Jun 03, 2011 - 03:59 Not unusual for someone with nothing to say to post in the forum however I think doing it 9 times is a first (take your elbow off the submit key bobzane). |

| bobzane | Posted: May 02, 2011 - 14:31 one of the first albums I ever bought. great album |
| d-don | Posted: May 02, 2011 - 14:31 Could not agree more. That cover of White Rabbit needs to follow OBL to the bottom of the Arabian Sea. oldsinger wrote: Nice to hear the real thing (Airplane) after a pretty weak imitation on a cover of White Rabbit. |
| paraclete (Citrus Heights, CA) | Posted: May 02, 2011 - 14:29 One of the BEST Jefferson Airplane songs ever! They not only could rock the house, but could do sweet sweet ballads. "Comin' Back to Me" for example. Hot Tuna did this song as well, with several outstanding versions out there. |
