Playlist: The Very Best Of Jefferson Airplane [Digipak]

Performer: Jefferson Airplane
Distributor: Sony Music Distribution (

Notes: This is an Enhanced CD, which contains both regular audio tracks and multimedia computer files. Recording information: 1965-1969. Jefferson Airplane's Playlist collection, with eco-friendly packaging, focuses on several of the group's best album tracks recorded between 1966 and 1971. Among the 14 tracks, five of them are from Surrealistic Pillow, including "White Rabbit," "Today," "Embryonic Journey," "Comin' Back to Me," and "Somebody to Love." As budget-line collections go, Playlist isn't bad, especially since it contains the original versions of these tracks, but better collections are available for not much more money. ~ Al Campbell

One of the quintessential San Francisco psychedelic bands, the Jefferson Airplane brought together interests in acoustic blues, folk, and rock music. Add political topicality and modal improvisations, and you have an inspired, mind-bending sound that could have only sprung forth from the late '60s. In their initial, most beloved phase, they were powered by the powerful dual lead vocals of Grace Slick and Marty Balin and the serpentine guitar of Jorma Kaukonen. They went through a traumatic series of personnel and name changes over the decades (they ventured into commercial AOR in the late '70s and early '80s) but their early work retains its seminal power.
