Related: About this forumI woke up with this Jefferson Airplane song in my head
Maybe because I read about the house the band bought in San Fran last night or maybe just because of the No Kings protests, but it was the first song I heard today.
The Jefferson Airplane bought the house at 2400 Fulton street in San Francisco in the spring of 1968. they painted it black, lived there, and played music there--
The four-story Neoclassical Revival mansion at 2400 Fulton was built in 1904 by a lumber magnate from Eureka named R.A. Vance. At the time, the area north of the park, which would become the Richmond District, was little more than sand dunes. Vance, who had made a fortune up north in lumber and banking, spared no expense in building his lavish San Francisco home.

Grace said she slept with every member of the band except Marty in that house. Or to put it another way, everybody in the band slept with Grace Slick.

Serendipitously, I've had this one running in my head all day. Not bad, actually.

Kinda relevant in light of recent existential challenges.

I loved that album.
That was a pattern for the San Francisco sound.
