Thanks Mr. Sags I really appreciate this recording.

[@colinwood8397]

Thank you, Stephen. You've made an old man very happy. :-))

[@ForrestSalfen]

Yes, Jack was the best, but world wide, not just Bay Area. He is the pinicle of royalty with ALL other bass players thousands of feet below him. To this day no bass player even comes close!!!! As for Spencer....... His stalattco style of using the entire drum kit has never been matched. With Spencer supplying the machine gun like rythem ON TIME, and sometimes ahead kept the band using all their creative skills to match / keep up with him. Ad the fully intentional bass lines and creschendos of Jack's bass...... and that was the true definition of what JA was all about. Even later when Spencer was with the Dinosaurs, his style kept that Superb Group in line...... I miss him and Marty so GD much..... 😢 PS I was there for that gig...... Priceless!!! Lest I emit the greatest male rock vocalist of all time, Marty Balin. Personally I love his voice and his style.. My entire life I tried hard to sing just like him.... and I reached that goal. On stage Marty was the definition of cool..... RIP my friend...

[@geraldfrank1630]

Wow! Real stereo & I can hear everyone’s unique “voice” clearly. Touché to S Sags for this great gift! 👌👏👏 What a band!

[@jameskennedy721]

best mix on an Airplane show ever ... nice

[@fredrickpotocnik8156]

McCartney was once asked who he thought was the greatest bassist of the present day (late 60s era interview), besides himself, of course. What was his answer? Jack Casady!!!

[@strangersname]

Casady leaves McCartney in the dust bass-wise

[@Augmuse]

I would have loved to be there for the show. As it was my 14th birthday I didn't have the money or a car. I hope the Jefferson Airplane does a 50th Anniversary tour. The Airplane off shoot band Hot Tuna is another good show to see.

Jack Casady is definitely a force of nature.

[@stacyblue1980]

One of the absolute greatest. A wonderfully blessed human being.

[@joshhuggins184]

More better lol Unfortunately I had Some hot tuna fans that made me think that that's not true but. I still love to go see them and I don't give a s*** about an a****** that wants to yell They are the best live. I wish I got to see the airplane that would have been so great but i'm too young

[@johncollins5934]

I was there that night. It was my 21st birthday. Grace wore a white "buckskin" sort of dress with fringes. She looked like an Indian princess. The Dead set was remarkable with (I think I have the night correct) a visit from Steve Stills.

[@russ98226]

John Collins I was there too......crosby and stills jammed and did a short set.Sons were great and Electric Hot Tuna opened with Marty singing and Peter Koukenen on guitar.

I WAS THERE TOO? SHE WAS BEAUTIFUL! WE WERE IN SAN FRANCISCO EVERY WEEKEND?

[@Minong_Manitou_Mishepeshu]

I was still 5 light years from Earth that night, but there in spirit?

[@Tipi_Dan]

They were the greatest band ever to mount a stage. It was so special to see them up there--- comforting, reassuring, welcoming. A feeling flowed out like... "OK, We're all here now." Each one of them had a unique persona, stance, style, and sound which on a great night fitted perfectly together in some sense such as to create a great six piece three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle orb of sonic enlightenment and pleasure. A pleasure to hear, a pleasure to behold as they meshed. What a time is was. JA rule!

[@donhagerty5669]

LED ZEPPELIN WAS PRETTY MAGICAL ON STAGE❤❤❤❤❤

[@miguelangelgonzalez3523]

Just beyond music, It is also Spirit and personality...

[@vortexpilot5096]

The Airplane had an absolutely unique sound. Really the were a supergroup with so many musical and songwriting talents melding. Grace Slick had a propensity for caterwauling in concert, but mostly it worked; their live shows were dynamic -- and unlike some of the Dead's catalog, their studio work was solid in its own right.

[@fredrickpotocnik8156]

This is the strongest version of MARTHA I have ever heard!!! A bizarre song which can take the listener on a trip, without the assistance of any 'additives"...LOL

[@toddkuehnau1107]

The fish man jam is so hypnotic and amazing. Grace Slick is everything. I love this so much; I wish it was released on vinyl or even CD.

[@terrybenowitz5085]

I was also on the Jefferson Airplane/Starship band wagon for years, seeing them last in Rockefeller Center, at Radio City Music Hall. It was wow, wow. I was also a Grateful Dead freak. I still appreciate music from the 60's out of all music out there, with an eclectic array of musicians, from Leon Russel, James Taylor, to a few weeks ago I finally saw Emerson, Lake & Palmer, at Parker Playhouse, tastefully done with video inclusions of late Emerson, & Lake. It was intense. Thank you

[@rapidfirerob4]

RIP Paul. Thanks for all the great music!

[@aidenswords5809]

Much better than their contempories the grateful dead and the doors and much harder rockin. Magnificent stuff!

Much better vocal harmonies for sure.

[@robertkelley8773]

The best live act that I ever saw - twice 1968 and almost exactly a year after this show. I think that this show shows them in their prime.

[@lisica8458]

Casady + Dryden = Perfection

[@stacyblue1980]

Dryden ♥ And Jack has his very own special bass thing. Untouched.

[@ZOOTSUITBEATNICK1]

Amen.

[@thomasbedell4770]

Gotta babe Jorma in the mix, oh, and Paul, Marty, and Grace.

[@bradwillard3152]

A significant document. The bass is a clinic without a doubt!

[@thomasbedell4770]

Really! Jack is just far out in this.

[@ednovak7050]

This is a fantastic concert recording, capturing the Airplane at their peak. Everyone shines here. The Dead put on a fine, typical '69 performance at this show (DS>SS>11>Lovelight), but I believe the Airplane outshone them this night.

[@johnnystaccata]

+Ed Novak The Airplane was superior to the Dead up until about this point. However, the band started to lose its momentum with the departure of Spencer Dryden and Marty Balin.

[@SSags]

Absolutely the Airplane were superior to the Dead up til this point. Losing Dryden was the beginning of the collapse.

[@Dougdenslowe714]

+S Sags I'm so glad someone else gives Spencer his well earned respect.His drumming was perfect for the Airplane.I love his style and when he left ,so did my interest in the band.He was irreplaceable and under appreciated by both the band and the public.

[@dingdong-wg1jv]

and had a much more attractive girls in the audience then the dead drew!

[@Dougdenslowe714]

ding dong good observation,but what the fuck does that have to do with anything?Other than being a totally cool comment!!!

[@rickmanning5574]

Marty Balin so awesome the voice of Jefferson Airplane along with Gracie but Marty's voice so smooth and soulful

[@jeaniedelgado687]

I loved marty's voice

[@strangersname]

@Don X Well he ain't singing off key here, not at all, sounds incredible

[@strangersname]

@Don X Steve Perry? Sorry you lost me there. Great chops but bland, mediocre talent. Balin was brilliant and he's still underrated. Sure he was eclipsed by Grace but he's still one of the great -- albeit overlooked -- singers in rock history.

[@strangersname]

@Don X Thanks a lot for those cool memories. Funny about your gf. Difficult :) . I suppose I have a soft spot for Marty. Never heard the man live! So much soul, like Share A Little Joke, so much feeling in the voice. I know Grace loved to sing with him, notwithstanding all the issues in the band. I'd love to have heard her do Lather. That and Triad are my favorite of her studio performances. She was an immense talent. Too bad she stopped composing. May Marty play in peace with Paul and Spencer....

[@paulhoneycutt905]

Stills and Nash joined the Airplane on one of those nights. Best Wooden Ships ever. I was there.

[@allenschmitz9644]

one of there 'best' songs.

[@Russ-oe3yp]

Hot Tuna opened with Marty on vocals and Peter"Black Kangaroo" on guitar.....Was here the night Stills played.

[@bwanna23]

Spencer's drumming on 3/5th's Of A Mile sounds like 10 seconds in 10/10 time.

[@terriwhite6733]

My God!! This is fantastic! Such a loose weave but so together!!

[@thomasbedell4770]

That was the Airplane. The best San Fran groups had this. And, others, not just SF.

[@mikeday9548]

The weavers in the webs that they weave. That's a good one. WE should be together...😢

[@fjfisher601]

I was at this show- the only time that Bill Graham experimented with each band doing 1 long set instead of 2- (dubbed early & late show, even though 1 ticket allowed you to see both if you arrived early)- fabulous show- the Sons rocked it as the opening act. Awesome Martha- best ever! And of course there's Jack.... who rocked it all night like no other!

[@bunnyman09]

Being old, for the most part, sucks balls but I am so grateful I was alive and able to appreciate the 60s, arguably the most amazing musical decade of the past century. From Motown (early 60s) to the Beatles/British invasion (early to mid 60s) and through the psychedelic explosion (mid to late 60s), talent and inspiration were wildly abundant.

[@trevorbarre5616]

I think the Seventies produced more great music and with more variety than the Sixties, which only really kicked off in 1963. I've lived through both decades. There is absolutely no doubt that both were way better than the Eighties.

[@rjcontre8799]

Jelly!

[@jacksaller9385]

We had our choice, didn't we? Agree. Finest period of music, PERIOD!

[@ziggy7506]

​@@trevorbarre5616the 80s sucks

[@curiousnomad]

Great show! I would have loved to been there up front- listening to those soaring vocals, Jack's bass, and the great guitar solos ( with the wah wah).

me too.i was a yr behind to understand summer of love

[@geraldsobel3470]

Yes, I was at a similar concert to this one around the same time Winter of 68-69 they did at Fillmore West. And experience never to be forgotten.

[@ghoula69]

Spenser Dryden was also so Brilliant

[@stacyblue1980]

i adore him. He was a beautiful soul.

[@gradyfilms2458]

Yes, Spenser was brilliant, kind of like the way John Densmore was brilliant.

[@ZOOTSUITBEATNICK1]

Most overlooked and underrated drummer in rock, imo.

[@robertsousa9550]

Wild, crazy, improvisational chaos....YEA!

[@StephenKemp777]

Outstanding in every way. Thanks for this offering!

[@MrMarcRomain]

@ 52 20 there is a drum bass duet that is second to none and ends with what seems like out of beat hammer blows @ around 54 55. Then everyone falls in. Amazing!

[@dimethaltryptamine1]

Trouble with this band is that everytime I hear them the clock flies to 420& it seems to be on it right now. OMG what I wouldn't give to be able to see these live performances! Jorma is killing the guitar

[@Mtnfarmer55]

dimethaltryptamine1 Jorma as electric Hot Tuna is playing a concert later in June. I forget the details, but wpkn.org has the information you need. It’s somewhere on Long Island. Hope this helps you catch Jorma and Jack.

[@a.c.wilson6999]

Kaukonen was very good, but a bit limited - not enough dynamic range (not enough soft moments to balance loud ones). This limitation is even more problematic in Kaukonen's solo and duo acoustic playing. Hendrix, though great, had the same limitation. Contrast Kaukonen with Richard Thompson, who is actually better on acoustic than on electric, with which Thompson "noodles" too much. I'm still waiting for Hot Tuna to play electric in Chicago again, because I've never heard Casady live on his fantastic electric bass.

[@lilithfairness7268]

I did not realize that. Thank you. When I heard Paul had left us, that was about as much as my brain could process that day. There is something about being part of the audience for them that is unlike other bands. Its like some crazy communal spirit stuff or something.

[@uncasist]

Jack Casady was certainly one of the finest bass players from the Bay area. Hendrix loved his playing! So did Grace.

[@jimbochirico9530]

+uncasist : IMO Hendrix finest version of "Killing Floor" was done with Casady playing bass.

[@stacyblue1980]

Still is. He still does shows with Hot Tuna.

yeah Gracie mentioned in an interview that Jack's base is one of the best things about JA

[@strangersname]

This version of Martha is a dream. Those incredible vocal harmonies with Marty and Grace and Spencer keeping beautiful time. And those dialogues between Jack and Jorma. Wow.

[@guitarkat99]

Casady's bass sounds KILLER.

[@lifesoboring1]

i've listened to a bunch of airplane and never heard the bass this prominent, loud and clear, vibrating with the greatest tone

[@ZavnorZ]

The voice of God at work.

[@jimdoyle1119]

I was amazed by his tone as a kid. It was the first time I'd heard a bass sound like this-full tone, not muffled or fuzzed out. It made me try the bass.

[@ZavnorZ]

Ditto....but I always loved bass players, starting with Paul McCartney.

[@Tipi_Dan]

I keep coming back here. More! The closing version of Other Side stands alongside some of their many earlier favorite versions. This is very tasty. There were moments there when I was like... "is that Spencer?", I originally thought, it was Covington "doing" Spencer's licks. But no, this was all blather. The sagacious gentleman below has enlightened us all. There should be a "Dead Base" for the Airplane.

[@junglechef1951]

In October of '69 Spencer was still in the band.

[@Tipi_Dan]

@@junglechef1951 Well, I stand corrected then. I must have just heard something different in the sound of the drums during this performance. I seem to keep listening to this show over and over. It must be good.

[@JLeBrecht]

But you have Bear to thank for this recording. He used to split the vocals to one track the the instruments to the other track. The idea is that these tapes were for the bands (Big Brother included in the bands that were recorded this way) to listen to as a way to study their performances.
