	3:03pm doctorjazz: Fasten your seat belts...
	3:04pm TDK60: Hi DJ Larry. I blame the Airplane. I do. Propel us.
	🥁 3:04pm Brian in UK: Hello Larry. We all need somebody to love.
	3:04pm Funky16Corners: ↳ TDK60 @3:04 Hey TDK60!
	3:05pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @3:04 Hi Brian!
	3:05pm Erica: Hi Testifiers
	3:06pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @3:05 Hi Erica!
	3:06pm Vincent The Soul Chef: Good afternoon all. I'm present, but feeling sloppy from allergies... just gonna lurk in the background and soak it all in.
	3:07pm northguineahills: ↳ Yvang @3:02 i'm skipping the airplane and going straight for the starship!
	3:07pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Vincent The Soul Chef @3:06 Hey Vincent! The pollen was killing me all morning.
	3:08pm Funky16Corners: ↳ northguineahills @3:07 Hey NGH!
	3:09pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Larry and all other listeners!
	3:09pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @3:09 Hi Andrew!
	3:10pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Larry and all
	3:11pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:10 Hey C!
	3:11pm TDK60: I was just listening to an Airplane associated album last night. Kantner/Slick's 'Sunfighter.'
	3:12pm coelacanth∅: it's good. it's one of my favorite 'airplane songs... but no competition to Marty's voice.
	3:13pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:12 What is?
	3:14pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:12 hi coel!
	3:15pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:13 it's no secret. i coincidentally listened to every relevant 'airplane album, in chronological order, 2 weeks ago. most of my copies are scratched to shit.
	🥁 3:16pm David Shortell: ↳ TDK60 @3:11 With their baby China on the cover. I wonder if she'll sue like the kid on Nirvana's "Nevermind"?
	3:16pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @3:16 Hi David!
	3:17pm coelacanth∅: hey Andrew!
	3:19pm coelacanth∅: David Shortell that swimmer baby sued somebody?! who, his parents, i guess? no one else could be liable, i imagine.
	3:20pm Erica: What is oldies radio anymore?
	🥁 3:20pm Brian in UK: The Worst of Jefferson Airplane is a great comp.
	3:22pm northguineahills: ↳ Erica @3:20 It's the station that plays Spice Girls, Coldplay, Destiny's Child, and Christina Aguilera...
	🥁 3:23pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Somebody To Love" by "Ozz and His Sperlings" An unidentified group can be heard playing this song in the 1969 Merchant Ivory film "The Guru".
	3:23pm northguineahills: ↳ Erica @3:20 (all artists had hits 22+ years ago...)
	3:23pm Discotech Underground: ↳ Erica @3:20 The 80's....anything earlier than that you have to go to satellite. I don't think there are any over-the-airwaves "oldies" stations any more than go back further than that. Consider the 80's was forty years ago, I guess it makes sense...
	3:24pm northguineahills: @Larry: You should ask Mary Wing, she's a master sleuth when it comes to digging up random covers...
	3:24pm Erica: ↳ northguineahills @3:23 I meant that oldies radio isn't what it used to be. Most play 80s and 90s hits with some 70s hits now. And my local station added 2000s hits as well.
	3:25pm Erica: ↳ Erica @3:24 And anything after the 90s wasn't even advertised for the station to play.
	3:26pm northguineahills: ↳ Discotech Underground @3:23 stations down here on FM dial usually have 70s and 60s selections...(couldn't tell you if they're dedicated station or not, as i haven't listened to non-WFMU/NPR radio since i was 15)
	3:27pm TDK60: ↳ Discotech Underground @3:23 Discotech U. I know one exception, though it's a non-commerical college station. WFDU at Fairleigh Dickinson Univ. in Teaneck, NJ. Oldies shows, including doo wop.
	3:27pm Mike Sin: re: Surrealistic Pillow When I was a young'un, I would often buy whatever I could find in adequate shape in the used/cheapo bin. I owned a stereo copy of this LP for decades and just assumed that's what blew everyone's minds. I didn't hear the mono mix until the 21st century -- that mix is so superior and is probably the one that most of the freaks were blasting in '67.
	3:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mike Sin @3:27 Hey Mike! Also one of the first albums I bought
	3:30pm Discotech Underground: ↳ Song: "Blues From An Airplane" by "Jefferson Airplane" This is the last JA 45 I need and I will have them all up through "Mexico".
	3:31pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ Mike Sin @3:27 I couldn't agree more... I only first heard it less than ten years ago. I haven't played my stereo copy since.
	3:32pm Discotech Underground: ↳ Mike Sin @3:27 I was lucky enough to find the uncensored 11 track mono pressing of this LP last year! Now to find the 12 track!!!...and yes, the mono is the superior version.
	3:32pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Somebody To Love" by "Jefferson Airplane" This was my aunt Marcia's favorite song, next to Long Way Home by Supertramp
	3:33pm Funky16Corners: This song must have blown people minds right the fuck out the window in 1967. Such a radical departure from what was on the radio.
	3:33pm TDK60: 'Takes Off' -- I still recall when the first few seconds of "Blues From An Airplane' spun on the turntable. 1966.
	3:34pm Funky16Corners: Dig this chart: las-solanas.com...
	🥁 3:35pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Come Up the Years" by "Jefferson Airplane" In 1967, Big Brother & the Holding Company performed in a monochrome PBS special for San Francisco's KQED-TV. For some reason, the special was called "Come Up the Years". imdb.com...
	3:36pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @3:35 I think that was released on DVD a few years ago
	3:36pm Funky16Corners: Next up, my fave JA tune...
	3:36pm Michael 98145: The summer of love was 56 years ago -- 56 years before that was 1911. Hello, All.
	3:36pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Michael 98145 @3:36 Hey Michael!
	3:40pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Michael 98145 @3:36 It's funny, I turned 5 in September of 1967, and every time I watch Monterey Pop, with all those little kids walking around, I think that could have been me, if my parents had been Californian, longhaired freaks, which they most certainly were NOT.
	3:42pm Gerry from Miami: 3/5 of a mile in 10 seconds works out to exactly 216 miles per hour. End of today's rock and roll math lesson!
	🥁 3:42pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Plastic Fantastic Lover" by "Jefferson Airplane" Marty Balin: the first rapper?
	3:42pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Gerry from Miami @3:42 Thank you, Gerry, I'm filing that one away for future use.
	3:43pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @3:42 Does Subterranean Homesick Blues predate this?
	3:44pm bradford: Hiya Larry & all, this is great!
	3:44pm Michael 98145: Jorma is still touring ...
	3:44pm Funky16Corners: ↳ bradford @3:44 Hey bradford!
	🥁 3:45pm David Shortell: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:28 I believe it was the first LP I ever bought. The first single I ever bought was "Eight Miles High" --by Hüsker Dü!
	3:45pm Erica: Hi bradford. Glad you could join the far out show.
	3:45pm Michael 98145: ↳ David Shortell @3:45 excellent choice
	🥁 3:46pm David Shortell: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:43 Yes, that's right.
	3:47pm TDK60: It truly was a wild time, in many ways! 'Baxter's' captures the weirdness. I got to see the Airplane only once, summer '69.
	3:47pm Funky16Corners: ↳ TDK60 @3:47 Where did you see them?
	3:48pm Michael 98145: ↳ TDK60 @3:47 Never did see them live
	🥁 3:48pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Won't You Try-Saturday Afternoon" by "Jefferson A... I didn't know they played this at Woodstock until I saw the documentary's expanded version on DVD.
	3:49pm TDK60: Larry, at the Tanglewood outdoor music venue, Lenox, Mass. A few days before Woodstock. With The Who and B.B. King. What a friggin' show it was!
	3:49pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @3:48 They're on the album. I got to see Grace's leather Woodstock outfit at the RRHOF in Cleveland
	3:49pm Funky16Corners: ↳ TDK60 @3:49 Wow! That must have been quite a concert!
	🥁 3:54pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Martha" by "Jefferson Airplane" Just to be clear, this song is not about a sheepdog (unlike "Martha, My Dear").
	3:55pm Phillippe: Howdy
	3:55pm Funky16Corners: In loyalty to their kind They cannot tolerate our minds In loyalty to our kind We cannot tolerate their obstruction
	3:55pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Phillippe @3:55 Hi Phillippe!
	3:57pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:55 Deep lyrics for 1968
	🥁 3:57pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Crown of Creation" by "Jefferson Airplane" They played (or perhaps only mimed) this song on both the Ed Sullivan Show and the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour.
	3:57pm TDK60: I've been listening to this song for eons. I'm still stunned.
	🥁 3:58pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Lather" by "Jefferson Airplane" YEAH! Just in time for one of my faves!!!
	3:59pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @3:58 Hey Clark!
	3:59pm coelacanth∅: (crown of creation's my favorite)
	3:59pm TDK60: ↳ TDK60 @3:57 I meant 'Crown' but not excluding others. Hee.
	3:59pm Funky16Corners: Nose solo by Gary Blackman, whoever that was...
	🥁 3:59pm WLSClark: Hi Larry. I was JUST listing JA 45s to sell next list and I usually sell a band as a lot , but each is cool enough to sell each individually.
	4:00pm coelacanth∅: for the record, "martha, my dear" also is not about a sheepdog!
	4:01pm Michael 98145: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:55 Some things never change
	4:01pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @3:59 Lots of great music on both sides of those 45s!
	🥁 4:02pm WLSClark: Hi Erica, Kip, coel, TDK, David and all!
	4:02pm northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:00 what about the song?
	4:02pm coelacanth∅: hey WLSC!
	🥁 4:02pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:01 So true. My Best Friend/How do You Feel is one of my fave TSW's (Two-sided Winners)
	🥁 4:03pm David Shortell: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:59 Could this be him at the 1:17 mark? youtube.com...
	4:03pm Funky16Corners: The sound of David Crosby trying to lure innocent hippie girls into his web...
	🥁 4:04pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:03 haha. Gabe Kaplan never had it THAT good with that bush under his nose!
	4:04pm Discotech Underground: ↳ WLSClark @4:02 Hey Clark!
	🥁 4:05pm WLSClark: I like tributes like this where it is not because someone just died. haha
	4:06pm coelacanth∅: well, this song doesn't suggest Cros was any more "guilty" of that than most musicians. or most people.
	🥁 4:06pm David Shortell: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:00 I see. It's thought to be about Jane Asher, eh?
	🥁 4:07pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "We Can Be Together" by "Jefferson Airplane" Not exactly a great pic sleeve for this one. I wondered as it was 1969 if they made it black because of Stones Beggars banquet and White album and Head all having certain COLORS???
	4:07pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:06 It's the sleazy passive aggressive seduction attempt. "Don't be so uptight, baby..."
	4:07pm Funky16Corners: UP AGAINTS THE WALL!
	🥁 4:07pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Triad" by "Jefferson Airplane" This song inspired me to write a book report about Robert Heinlein's "Stranger in a Strange Land"!
	4:08pm coelacanth∅: David yeah he just used the pooch's name... and probably was about equally fond of each!
	4:08pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @4:07 Kantner was the band's scifi head
	4:09pm Gerry from Miami: @Funky16Corners. Crosby's "Triad" takes on a different texture when sung by a woman, don't you think? The threesome could be two men, one woman or two women, one man. Nonetheless, a groundbreaking song. RIP, Mr. Crosby.
	4:09pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ WLSClark @4:07 Hi Clark!
	4:10pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:07 Was that a reference to something?
	4:10pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Gerry from Miami @4:09 That's an interesting/valid take, Gerry.
	4:10pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Phillippe @3:55 Howdy Phillippe!
	4:10pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @4:10 The lyrics to this song
	🥁 4:10pm WLSClark: Hi Andrew!!
	4:10pm TDK60: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:08 Larry, yeah, don't know much, but I recall some of the lyrics on Crown of Creation being taken from a John Wyndham sci-fi novel. Forget which.
	🥁 4:11pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:10 Did they sing this at Woodstock???
	🥁 4:11pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "We Can Be Together" by "Jefferson Airplane" When they played this on the Dick Cavett Show, ABC allowed Grace to sing "motherfuckers". Maybe they just weren't listening.
	4:12pm coelacanth∅: Larry, that may have been in him, but it doesn't have to be projected into that song or the common situation he found himself in. females are at least as likely to suggest such a thing, and i'm sure i've known more "polyamorous" females than males.
	🥁 4:12pm WLSClark: ↳ David Shortell @4:11 That show was so awesome right after Woodstock. Seems like someone cussed in talking too, but not sure.
	4:12pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:11 They did not. Set list here: www.bethelwoodscenter.org...
	4:13pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:04 Hey Kip!
	4:13pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:12 Cavett in his safari outfit and ascot!
	🥁 4:13pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:12 WOW! Had no idea they did 13 songs! How cool!
	🥁 4:14pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:13 And scarf I believe
	🥁 4:15pm WLSClark: ↳ WLSClark @4:14 OH is that an ascot they call it? Duh
	4:15pm VAXcat: Crown of Creation had some lyrics from John Wyndham's "The Chrysalids". BLew me away first time I heard the song and recognized 'em.
	🥁 4:15pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:13 I just remember that Mike Sin always dresses like he did.
	4:16pm coelacanth∅: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:12 (and we can say that about todd rundgren or jonathan richman or Jackson Browne or a million other artists that people strangely think are righteous, "decent" guys!)
	🥁 4:16pm WLSClark: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:16 haha. At least Emitt Rhodes never tried to hide it!
	4:17pm Phillippe: Larry, we have new osprey pair starting nest building today right across the cove from us! Never had them this close -- I can literally hit 'em with a rock if I wanted to (and if I stood a lot closer). Lucky for them, throwing rocks at birds is something I never do...
	4:18pm Gerry from Miami: The Volunteers album was released while I was studying Vietnamese at the Defense Language Institute at Ft. Bliss, TX, in El Paso in late '69-early '70. The local radio station, KINT-FM, played the "up against the wall, mother fucker" line from "We Can Be Together" without any censorship or editing. Didn't lose their FCC license, as far as I know.
	4:18pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:16 I dont really care, outside of the fact that so much of the hippie "ethos" at least as far as rock stars went, was how much drugs can I sonsume, how many people can I fuck and where's my Porsche. Crosby gets called out because he was a dick, though apologists will label him irascible.
	4:19pm Funky16Corners: ↳ VAXcat @4:15 Hey VAXcat!
	4:19pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Phillippe @4:17 Nice!
	4:20pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Gerry from Miami @4:18 I think someone needs to actually complain.
	4:20pm Phillippe: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:19 I'll put pics up when they get further along
	🥁 4:23pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Volunteers (LIve at Woodstock)" by "Jefferson Air... Just a great song, but I digresss.....
	4:23pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:23 I was surprised to see that this was the middle of their set! I always assumed it was them taking the stage.
	4:24pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:18 ha, yeah. even he didn't dispute his dickness!
	4:24pm Erica: Peace, love and USA!
	4:25pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Volunteers (LIve at Woodstock)" by "Jefferson Air... Just a reminder: Nicky Hopkins was in the band at this time, over there on piano.
	4:25pm Mike Sin: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:18 My goal has always been to consume as many drugs as possible and f***as many people as possible while IN my Porsche... and wearing a safari suit. Most have read this in my manifesto.
	4:25pm coelacanth∅: who played piano at woodstock, Marty?
	4:26pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mike Sin @4:25 I have the leather-bound edition in my bedside table, next to the Book of Mormon
	4:26pm Gerry from Miami: "Wooden Ships," written by David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Paul Kantner, is a certified stunner about a nuclear apocalypse. A little shocker for the hippies and stones to contemplate.
	4:26pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:25 Nicky Hopkins, maybe??
	🥁 4:26pm David Shortell: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:18 All this talk about Crosby's ulterior motives behind "Triad" reminds me of the bathtub seduction scene in R. Crumb's untitled 1965 Fritz the Cat story (adapted for film in 1972).
	4:26pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:26 Nicky Hopkins, definitely
	4:27pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @4:26 That's the best part of that movie
	🥁 4:27pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:23 Maybe their good morning comments were better at that time. haha
	4:27pm coelacanth∅: i definitely never wanted to try ANY drugs, fuck ANY people or ever drive a porsche. i've only succeeded at one of those.
	4:28pm Michael 98145: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:27 At one time the Porsche was THE car of California
	4:29pm Gerry from Miami: I apologize for Auto-Correct changing "stoners" to "stones." These algorithms have no brains!
	4:29pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:26 Thanks. i know Marty dabbled, and Grace dabbled less competently; but Nicky makes sense.
	🥁 4:29pm WLSClark: ↳ Michael 98145 @4:28 I think it's funny when I see McQueen on his western TV show in 66 and then 2 years later the chase scene in Bullitt
	🥁 4:31pm WLSClark: Sorry to hear Larry. been dare dun that about 8 years ago. It's always tough.
	4:32pm coelacanth∅: i'm sorry to hear about that,Larry. stay strong man
	4:32pm Mike Sin: Larry -- LUV to your mother and your family. As someone who has been through this process, all I can say is to pull family close. Best wishes to you and your brothers.
	🥁 4:33pm David Shortell: It's remarkable that founding members Paul and Signe died on the same day.
	4:34pm Erica: ↳ David Shortell @4:33 Or a day apart. 2016 was a crazy year for celebrity deaths
	4:35pm Erica: I shouldn't have asked what the reference was...
	4:36pm TDK60: Larry, was 'Shepherd' by Kantner? I think it's Kaukonen singing.
	4:37pm Funky16Corners: ↳ TDK60 @4:36 I think you're right! Not sure why I thought it was Kantner
	4:37pm fredr: Afternoon Larry and everyone! Is see its Jefferson Airplane day
	4:37pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @4:33 That was pretty crazy
	4:38pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:32 Thanks, C.
	4:38pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Somebody To Love" by "Barbara and Ernie" clickied this when UM threw this down 3 years ago...
	4:38pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:31 Yeah, trying to prepare myself and not having much success.
	4:38pm doctorjazz: ↳ Song: "Somebody To Love" by "Barbara and Ernie" ?autoharp?
	4:38pm coelacanth∅: ↳ David Shortell @4:33 -and i'm thinking it's noteworthy Ryuichi and Yukihiro died within a few months of each-other; but those 2 within 24 hours...
	4:38pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mike Sin @4:32 Thanks, Mike. I think you probably met her at one of our cookouts
	4:39pm Funky16Corners: ↳ doctorjazz @4:38 I think so
	4:39pm TDK60: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:37 Larry, I just checked Wikipee; they say it's traditional, arranged by Jorma K.
	🥁 4:39pm WLSClark: It's hard to tell how things will go day to day, unfortunately.
	4:39pm northguineahills: ↳ doctorjazz @4:38 nah, autotune...
	4:40pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Michael 98145 @4:28 Michael for whatever reason the porsche was pretty far down on my list of car infatuations. my mother always wanted one. (never got one)
	🥁 4:42pm WLSClark: I have to head across town early today. Thanks Larry and good luck.
	4:43pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:42 Thanks Clark!
	4:43pm doctorjazz: ↳ northguineahills @4:39 Godfobid!
	4:43pm coelacanth∅: ahhhh, a good singer with a sweet voice
	4:44pm VAXcat: While we're listening to cover versions of JA songs, cHeck out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INRY52zwg_w for a great version of Rejoyce done by the Tufts Electronic Music Ensemble
	4:46pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:43 Her early albums are really good
	4:47pm coelacanth∅: Larry i know the name but couldn't have named a single song by her. i'll check 'er out
	4:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:47 First album on MGM second and third albums of Evolution
	4:48pm Mike Sin: Gotta jump on one last work meeting now... thanks for this JA-themed show, Larry.
	4:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:48 After which she married Allen Thicke and spawned Robin Thicke
	4:48pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mike Sin @4:48 Bye Mike!
	🥁 4:49pm David Shortell: The closest I ever came to seeing JA was at the Bottom Line with Paul and Marty in a band that played all of "Volunteers". I forget what year.
	4:50pm Andrew in Toronto: That was a fabulous show! Thanks Larry!
	4:50pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Comin' Back To Me" by "Rickie Lee Jones" Never heard this R L Jones version before. A sensitive cover.
	4:50pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @4:50 Thank you, Andrew!
	4:51pm coelacanth∅: Rickie Lee's done a good job with that, as well. unusual...not as i know her.
	4:53pm Gerry from Miami: Tom Scott pre-LA Express, eh? Before he wandered into Joni's "Court and Spark" recording sessions. Very eclectic musician with big ears.
	4:53pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:51 That album is all covers, mostly standards with a few rock things
	4:53pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Gerry from Miami @4:53 Yup, same guy.
	4:54pm CalZone!: aw jeez, how did I forget yaw show today?!?!?!
	4:54pm Michael 98145: What a fun show - thank you again.
	4:54pm northguineahills: ↳ Song: "Comin' Back To Me" by "Rickie Lee Jones" same what everyone else said about RLJ...
	4:54pm Funky16Corners: ↳ CalZone! @4:54 Hey Cal! Here in time for the California Dreamers!
	4:54pm spodiodi: hello Larry and all! nice show! been listening since the beginning, but unable to comment
	4:54pm TDK60: Gabor, you groovy guy and your ensemble.
	4:55pm doctorjazz: Thanks Larry)
	4:55pm Funky16Corners: wfmu.org...
	4:56pm spodiodi: ...and thank you!
	4:56pm TDK60: Funky Larry, thanks so much. J.A., a top band in my ear memory.
	🥁 4:57pm Yvang: Many thanks Larry!
	4:57pm Funky16Corners: Thank you all for listening!
	4:57pm Erica: I dug a bit of the show Larry. It's hard when it's so hot
	🥁 4:58pm David Shortell: JA were the first group to perform a surprise concert on a city rooftop that was stopped by the police (New York, November of 1968). Two months later, the same thing happened with some British group in London.
	🥁 4:58pm WR: Thank you! Larry! Much love and positive intentions to you and your family in this crucial time.
	4:58pm Erica: Thanks Larry!
	4:58pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WR @4:58 Thanks WR!

	3:03pm doctorjazz: Fasten your seat belts...
	3:04pm TDK60: Hi DJ Larry. I blame the Airplane. I do. Propel us.
	🥁 3:04pm Brian in UK: Hello Larry. We all need somebody to love.
	3:04pm Funky16Corners: ↳ TDK60 @3:04 Hey TDK60!
	3:05pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Brian in UK @3:04 Hi Brian!
	3:05pm Erica: Hi Testifiers
	3:06pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @3:05 Hi Erica!
	3:06pm Vincent The Soul Chef: Good afternoon all. I'm present, but feeling sloppy from allergies... just gonna lurk in the background and soak it all in.
	3:07pm northguineahills: ↳ Yvang @3:02 i'm skipping the airplane and going straight for the starship!
	3:07pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Vincent The Soul Chef @3:06 Hey Vincent! The pollen was killing me all morning.
	3:08pm Funky16Corners: ↳ northguineahills @3:07 Hey NGH!
	3:09pm Andrew in Toronto: Hi there Larry and all other listeners!
	3:09pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Andrew in Toronto @3:09 Hi Andrew!
	3:10pm coelacanth∅: Greetings Larry and all
	3:11pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:10 Hey C!
	3:11pm TDK60: I was just listening to an Airplane associated album last night. Kantner/Slick's 'Sunfighter.'
	3:12pm coelacanth∅: it's good. it's one of my favorite 'airplane songs... but no competition to Marty's voice.
	3:13pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:12 What is?
	3:14pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ coelacanth∅ @3:12 hi coel!
	3:15pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:13 it's no secret. i coincidentally listened to every relevant 'airplane album, in chronological order, 2 weeks ago. most of my copies are scratched to shit.
	🥁 3:16pm David Shortell: ↳ TDK60 @3:11 With their baby China on the cover. I wonder if she'll sue like the kid on Nirvana's "Nevermind"?
	3:16pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @3:16 Hi David!
	3:17pm coelacanth∅: hey Andrew!
	3:19pm coelacanth∅: David Shortell that swimmer baby sued somebody?! who, his parents, i guess? no one else could be liable, i imagine.
	3:20pm Erica: What is oldies radio anymore?
	🥁 3:20pm Brian in UK: The Worst of Jefferson Airplane is a great comp.
	3:22pm northguineahills: ↳ Erica @3:20 It's the station that plays Spice Girls, Coldplay, Destiny's Child, and Christina Aguilera...
	🥁 3:23pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Somebody To Love" by "Ozz and His Sperlings" An unidentified group can be heard playing this song in the 1969 Merchant Ivory film "The Guru".
	3:23pm northguineahills: ↳ Erica @3:20 (all artists had hits 22+ years ago...)
	3:23pm Discotech Underground: ↳ Erica @3:20 The 80's....anything earlier than that you have to go to satellite. I don't think there are any over-the-airwaves "oldies" stations any more than go back further than that. Consider the 80's was forty years ago, I guess it makes sense...
	3:24pm northguineahills: @Larry: You should ask Mary Wing, she's a master sleuth when it comes to digging up random covers...
	3:24pm Erica: ↳ northguineahills @3:23 I meant that oldies radio isn't what it used to be. Most play 80s and 90s hits with some 70s hits now. And my local station added 2000s hits as well.
	3:25pm Erica: ↳ Erica @3:24 And anything after the 90s wasn't even advertised for the station to play.
	3:26pm northguineahills: ↳ Discotech Underground @3:23 stations down here on FM dial usually have 70s and 60s selections...(couldn't tell you if they're dedicated station or not, as i haven't listened to non-WFMU/NPR radio since i was 15)
	3:27pm TDK60: ↳ Discotech Underground @3:23 Discotech U. I know one exception, though it's a non-commerical college station. WFDU at Fairleigh Dickinson Univ. in Teaneck, NJ. Oldies shows, including doo wop.
	3:27pm Mike Sin: re: Surrealistic Pillow When I was a young'un, I would often buy whatever I could find in adequate shape in the used/cheapo bin. I owned a stereo copy of this LP for decades and just assumed that's what blew everyone's minds. I didn't hear the mono mix until the 21st century -- that mix is so superior and is probably the one that most of the freaks were blasting in '67.
	3:28pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mike Sin @3:27 Hey Mike! Also one of the first albums I bought
	3:30pm Discotech Underground: ↳ Song: "Blues From An Airplane" by "Jefferson Airplane" This is the last JA 45 I need and I will have them all up through "Mexico".
	3:31pm Vincent The Soul Chef: ↳ Mike Sin @3:27 I couldn't agree more... I only first heard it less than ten years ago. I haven't played my stereo copy since.
	3:32pm Discotech Underground: ↳ Mike Sin @3:27 I was lucky enough to find the uncensored 11 track mono pressing of this LP last year! Now to find the 12 track!!!...and yes, the mono is the superior version.
	3:32pm Erica: ↳ Song: "Somebody To Love" by "Jefferson Airplane" This was my aunt Marcia's favorite song, next to Long Way Home by Supertramp
	3:33pm Funky16Corners: This song must have blown people minds right the fuck out the window in 1967. Such a radical departure from what was on the radio.
	3:33pm TDK60: 'Takes Off' -- I still recall when the first few seconds of "Blues From An Airplane' spun on the turntable. 1966.
	3:34pm Funky16Corners: Dig this chart: las-solanas.com...
	🥁 3:35pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Come Up the Years" by "Jefferson Airplane" In 1967, Big Brother & the Holding Company performed in a monochrome PBS special for San Francisco's KQED-TV. For some reason, the special was called "Come Up the Years". imdb.com...
	3:36pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @3:35 I think that was released on DVD a few years ago
	3:36pm Funky16Corners: Next up, my fave JA tune...
	3:36pm Michael 98145: The summer of love was 56 years ago -- 56 years before that was 1911. Hello, All.
	3:36pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Michael 98145 @3:36 Hey Michael!
	3:40pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Michael 98145 @3:36 It's funny, I turned 5 in September of 1967, and every time I watch Monterey Pop, with all those little kids walking around, I think that could have been me, if my parents had been Californian, longhaired freaks, which they most certainly were NOT.
	3:42pm Gerry from Miami: 3/5 of a mile in 10 seconds works out to exactly 216 miles per hour. End of today's rock and roll math lesson!
	🥁 3:42pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Plastic Fantastic Lover" by "Jefferson Airplane" Marty Balin: the first rapper?
	3:42pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Gerry from Miami @3:42 Thank you, Gerry, I'm filing that one away for future use.
	3:43pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @3:42 Does Subterranean Homesick Blues predate this?
	3:44pm bradford: Hiya Larry & all, this is great!
	3:44pm Michael 98145: Jorma is still touring ...
	3:44pm Funky16Corners: ↳ bradford @3:44 Hey bradford!
	🥁 3:45pm David Shortell: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:28 I believe it was the first LP I ever bought. The first single I ever bought was "Eight Miles High" --by Hüsker Dü!
	3:45pm Erica: Hi bradford. Glad you could join the far out show.
	3:45pm Michael 98145: ↳ David Shortell @3:45 excellent choice
	🥁 3:46pm David Shortell: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:43 Yes, that's right.
	3:47pm TDK60: It truly was a wild time, in many ways! 'Baxter's' captures the weirdness. I got to see the Airplane only once, summer '69.
	3:47pm Funky16Corners: ↳ TDK60 @3:47 Where did you see them?
	3:48pm Michael 98145: ↳ TDK60 @3:47 Never did see them live
	🥁 3:48pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Won't You Try-Saturday Afternoon" by "Jefferson A... I didn't know they played this at Woodstock until I saw the documentary's expanded version on DVD.
	3:49pm TDK60: Larry, at the Tanglewood outdoor music venue, Lenox, Mass. A few days before Woodstock. With The Who and B.B. King. What a friggin' show it was!
	3:49pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @3:48 They're on the album. I got to see Grace's leather Woodstock outfit at the RRHOF in Cleveland
	3:49pm Funky16Corners: ↳ TDK60 @3:49 Wow! That must have been quite a concert!
	🥁 3:54pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Martha" by "Jefferson Airplane" Just to be clear, this song is not about a sheepdog (unlike "Martha, My Dear").
	3:55pm Phillippe: Howdy
	3:55pm Funky16Corners: In loyalty to their kind They cannot tolerate our minds In loyalty to our kind We cannot tolerate their obstruction
	3:55pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Phillippe @3:55 Hi Phillippe!
	3:57pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:55 Deep lyrics for 1968
	🥁 3:57pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Crown of Creation" by "Jefferson Airplane" They played (or perhaps only mimed) this song on both the Ed Sullivan Show and the Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour.
	3:57pm TDK60: I've been listening to this song for eons. I'm still stunned.
	🥁 3:58pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Lather" by "Jefferson Airplane" YEAH! Just in time for one of my faves!!!
	3:59pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @3:58 Hey Clark!
	3:59pm coelacanth∅: (crown of creation's my favorite)
	3:59pm TDK60: ↳ TDK60 @3:57 I meant 'Crown' but not excluding others. Hee.
	3:59pm Funky16Corners: Nose solo by Gary Blackman, whoever that was...
	🥁 3:59pm WLSClark: Hi Larry. I was JUST listing JA 45s to sell next list and I usually sell a band as a lot , but each is cool enough to sell each individually.
	4:00pm coelacanth∅: for the record, "martha, my dear" also is not about a sheepdog!
	4:01pm Michael 98145: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:55 Some things never change
	4:01pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @3:59 Lots of great music on both sides of those 45s!
	🥁 4:02pm WLSClark: Hi Erica, Kip, coel, TDK, David and all!
	4:02pm northguineahills: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:00 what about the song?
	4:02pm coelacanth∅: hey WLSC!
	🥁 4:02pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:01 So true. My Best Friend/How do You Feel is one of my fave TSW's (Two-sided Winners)
	🥁 4:03pm David Shortell: ↳ Funky16Corners @3:59 Could this be him at the 1:17 mark? youtube.com...
	4:03pm Funky16Corners: The sound of David Crosby trying to lure innocent hippie girls into his web...
	🥁 4:04pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:03 haha. Gabe Kaplan never had it THAT good with that bush under his nose!
	4:04pm Discotech Underground: ↳ WLSClark @4:02 Hey Clark!
	🥁 4:05pm WLSClark: I like tributes like this where it is not because someone just died. haha
	4:06pm coelacanth∅: well, this song doesn't suggest Cros was any more "guilty" of that than most musicians. or most people.
	🥁 4:06pm David Shortell: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:00 I see. It's thought to be about Jane Asher, eh?
	🥁 4:07pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "We Can Be Together" by "Jefferson Airplane" Not exactly a great pic sleeve for this one. I wondered as it was 1969 if they made it black because of Stones Beggars banquet and White album and Head all having certain COLORS???
	4:07pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:06 It's the sleazy passive aggressive seduction attempt. "Don't be so uptight, baby..."
	4:07pm Funky16Corners: UP AGAINTS THE WALL!
	🥁 4:07pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "Triad" by "Jefferson Airplane" This song inspired me to write a book report about Robert Heinlein's "Stranger in a Strange Land"!
	4:08pm coelacanth∅: David yeah he just used the pooch's name... and probably was about equally fond of each!
	4:08pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @4:07 Kantner was the band's scifi head
	4:09pm Gerry from Miami: @Funky16Corners. Crosby's "Triad" takes on a different texture when sung by a woman, don't you think? The threesome could be two men, one woman or two women, one man. Nonetheless, a groundbreaking song. RIP, Mr. Crosby.
	4:09pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ WLSClark @4:07 Hi Clark!
	4:10pm Erica: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:07 Was that a reference to something?
	4:10pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Gerry from Miami @4:09 That's an interesting/valid take, Gerry.
	4:10pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Phillippe @3:55 Howdy Phillippe!
	4:10pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Erica @4:10 The lyrics to this song
	🥁 4:10pm WLSClark: Hi Andrew!!
	4:10pm TDK60: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:08 Larry, yeah, don't know much, but I recall some of the lyrics on Crown of Creation being taken from a John Wyndham sci-fi novel. Forget which.
	🥁 4:11pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:10 Did they sing this at Woodstock???
	🥁 4:11pm David Shortell: ↳ Song: "We Can Be Together" by "Jefferson Airplane" When they played this on the Dick Cavett Show, ABC allowed Grace to sing "motherfuckers". Maybe they just weren't listening.
	4:12pm coelacanth∅: Larry, that may have been in him, but it doesn't have to be projected into that song or the common situation he found himself in. females are at least as likely to suggest such a thing, and i'm sure i've known more "polyamorous" females than males.
	🥁 4:12pm WLSClark: ↳ David Shortell @4:11 That show was so awesome right after Woodstock. Seems like someone cussed in talking too, but not sure.
	4:12pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:11 They did not. Set list here: www.bethelwoodscenter.org...
	4:13pm Andrew in Toronto: ↳ Discotech Underground @4:04 Hey Kip!
	4:13pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:12 Cavett in his safari outfit and ascot!
	🥁 4:13pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:12 WOW! Had no idea they did 13 songs! How cool!
	🥁 4:14pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:13 And scarf I believe
	🥁 4:15pm WLSClark: ↳ WLSClark @4:14 OH is that an ascot they call it? Duh
	4:15pm VAXcat: Crown of Creation had some lyrics from John Wyndham's "The Chrysalids". BLew me away first time I heard the song and recognized 'em.
	🥁 4:15pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:13 I just remember that Mike Sin always dresses like he did.
	4:16pm coelacanth∅: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:12 (and we can say that about todd rundgren or jonathan richman or Jackson Browne or a million other artists that people strangely think are righteous, "decent" guys!)
	🥁 4:16pm WLSClark: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:16 haha. At least Emitt Rhodes never tried to hide it!
	4:17pm Phillippe: Larry, we have new osprey pair starting nest building today right across the cove from us! Never had them this close -- I can literally hit 'em with a rock if I wanted to (and if I stood a lot closer). Lucky for them, throwing rocks at birds is something I never do...
	4:18pm Gerry from Miami: The Volunteers album was released while I was studying Vietnamese at the Defense Language Institute at Ft. Bliss, TX, in El Paso in late '69-early '70. The local radio station, KINT-FM, played the "up against the wall, mother fucker" line from "We Can Be Together" without any censorship or editing. Didn't lose their FCC license, as far as I know.
	4:18pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:16 I dont really care, outside of the fact that so much of the hippie "ethos" at least as far as rock stars went, was how much drugs can I sonsume, how many people can I fuck and where's my Porsche. Crosby gets called out because he was a dick, though apologists will label him irascible.
	4:19pm Funky16Corners: ↳ VAXcat @4:15 Hey VAXcat!
	4:19pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Phillippe @4:17 Nice!
	4:20pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Gerry from Miami @4:18 I think someone needs to actually complain.
	4:20pm Phillippe: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:19 I'll put pics up when they get further along
	🥁 4:23pm WLSClark: ↳ Song: "Volunteers (LIve at Woodstock)" by "Jefferson Air... Just a great song, but I digresss.....
	4:23pm Funky16Corners: ↳ WLSClark @4:23 I was surprised to see that this was the middle of their set! I always assumed it was them taking the stage.
	4:24pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:18 ha, yeah. even he didn't dispute his dickness!
	4:24pm Erica: Peace, love and USA!
	4:25pm TDK60: ↳ Song: "Volunteers (LIve at Woodstock)" by "Jefferson Air... Just a reminder: Nicky Hopkins was in the band at this time, over there on piano.
	4:25pm Mike Sin: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:18 My goal has always been to consume as many drugs as possible and f***as many people as possible while IN my Porsche... and wearing a safari suit. Most have read this in my manifesto.
	4:25pm coelacanth∅: who played piano at woodstock, Marty?
	4:26pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Mike Sin @4:25 I have the leather-bound edition in my bedside table, next to the Book of Mormon
	4:26pm Gerry from Miami: "Wooden Ships," written by David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Paul Kantner, is a certified stunner about a nuclear apocalypse. A little shocker for the hippies and stones to contemplate.
	4:26pm Funky16Corners: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:25 Nicky Hopkins, maybe??
	🥁 4:26pm David Shortell: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:18 All this talk about Crosby's ulterior motives behind "Triad" reminds me of the bathtub seduction scene in R. Crumb's untitled 1965 Fritz the Cat story (adapted for film in 1972).
	4:26pm Funky16Corners: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:26 Nicky Hopkins, definitely
	4:27pm Funky16Corners: ↳ David Shortell @4:26 That's the best part of that movie
	🥁 4:27pm WLSClark: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:23 Maybe their good morning comments were better at that time. haha
	4:27pm coelacanth∅: i definitely never wanted to try ANY drugs, fuck ANY people or ever drive a porsche. i've only succeeded at one of those.
	4:28pm Michael 98145: ↳ coelacanth∅ @4:27 At one time the Porsche was THE car of California
	4:29pm Gerry from Miami: I apologize for Auto-Correct changing "stoners" to "stones." These algorithms have no brains!
	4:29pm coelacanth∅: ↳ Funky16Corners @4:26 Thanks. i know Marty dabbled, and Grace dabbled less competently; but Nicky makes sense.
	🥁 4:29pm WLSClark: ↳ Michael 98145 @4:28 I think it's funny when I see McQueen on his western TV show in 66 and then 2 years later the chase scene in Bullitt
	🥁 4:31pm WLSClark: Sorry to hear Larry. been dare dun that about 8 years ago. It's always tough.
	4:32pm coelacanth∅: i'm sorry to hear about that,Larry. stay strong man
	4:32pm Mike Sin: Larry -- LUV to your mother and your family. As someone who has been through this process, all I can say is to pull family close. Best wishes to you and your brothers.
	🥁 4:33pm David Shortell: It's remarkable that founding members Paul and Signe died on the same day.
	4:34pm Erica: ↳ David Shortell @4:33 Or a day apart. 2016 was a crazy year for celebrity deaths
	4:35pm Erica: I shouldn't have asked what the reference was...
	4:36pm TDK60: Larry, was 'Shepherd' by Kantner? I think it's Kaukonen singing.
