Up Against The Wall

I'll take a break from my usual practice and make a direct quote from the cd notes because it sums it up. "Listening to Volunteers is like opening a time capsule from the end of an era when young people still believed music had the power to change the world". I might add, and when rock music was still open to all sorts of diverse influences and experimentation. Volunteers by Jefferson Airplane. A band that fell from grace ( no pun intended ) spectacularly ( Starship, good grief ! ) But this is a wonderful album, the cd with bonus live cuts. "Everything they say that we are, we are. And we are very proud of ourselves".
