Product Description
Description
There is a reason why the Jefferson Airplane was the first nationally renowned proponent of San Francisco rock. As muchas they bucked establishment values, the sextet offered a musical mixture of California folk-rock and white blues that was nevertheless easier to digest than the sounds of their contemporaries. TAKES OFF, their debut recording, made beforeGrace Slick joined the band, goes to great lengths to establish them as the obvious next step on a pop staircase of theBeatles, Byrds, and Rolling Stones.
Signe Anderson and Marty Balin's distinctive, folky harmonies give TAKES OFF a lived-in warmth and a loved-in counterculture vibe that defined the times. Covers of John D. Loudermilk's infamous "Tobacco Road" and The Youngbloods' '60s anthem "Let's Get Together" may have symbolised their community's alienation from their parents' values, but the Airplane versions were less calls to arms than sympathetic pats on the back. However, Jorma Kaukonen's boppy R&B guitar leads and Jack Casady's free butsteady bass lend the Airplane's debut some heavy rock muscle.
