Description

Jefferson Airplane were iconic to dirty hippies across the world in the sixties, as the only band to headline Woodstock, Altamont and the Monterey Pop festivals. “Surrealistic Pillow” was saved from record company meddling by the spiritual advisory of Grateful Dead honcho Jerry Garcia, and went on to become the defining soundtrack to the Summer Of Love. Not only that, but it’s #471 on the Rolling Stone magazine list of the 500 Greatest Albums of all Time. Christopher and Liam get into it/over it on topics such as Grace Slick’s incredible vocals, the 1998 science fiction film The Matrix, the poor bodyguarding skills of the Hells Angels, Richard Nixon, and “We Built This City” by Jefferson Starship. All that and more, plus a scintillating edition of Secret Posho, on the thirtieth episode of Enjoy An Album. Enjoy!
