Embalmic Journey

Paul Kantner, founding member of Jefferson Airplane (and father of "summertime" MTV veejay and spank bank source for adolescent me in the 1980's China Slick Kantner)   dead at 74.
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.

He also had nothing to do with "We Built This City".

I think that makes him more awesome.

I really never liked Jefferson Airplane...Grace Slick basically just copped Micky Dolenz's vocal riffs, and I just never found any of it all that imaginative. It got worse as they became Starship. Basically manufactured psychadelia.

Yeah I wasn't being serious.  Pretty sure that's one of the worst songs ever recorded.

It is kind of funny how they went from the vanguard of tripping-balls, counter-culture psychedlic musicians in the 60's to horribly cheesy, Reagan-Era pop stars in the 80's.  Off the top of my head, I'm hard-pressed to find a similar descension.

Nowhere near that, but Dylan's recent IBM advertisement comes to mind.
