Jefferson Airplane - Trial By Fire

[LanceHelmut]

2nd listen to-day after the live version on 30 seconds...this is the shit baby..we're lucky we had this stuff while it lasted..popular "taste" and economic necessity dictated the pure horse-shit that followed (with a few notable exceptions) when the golden age ('64-'74) ended

[ThePapo709]

When Jack and Jorma left the Airplane ,It CRASHED !!!!!!!!!!!

Kantner's not an asshole...

He and Grace were the best things about the Airplane, IMO.

[graybeard19]

This is one my favorite tunes of all time.......too bad the young musicians dont have the drive to learn how to play like the old hippies back in my day........sad. Kaukonen and the group kick ass. boy bands, diva chicks, PLEASE.......they suck festering cow udders!

[mariella13579]

was this used in that video game spyro?

[dradlebomb]

well u can give me hell,but i won't tell...

[berylman]

Gotta say they all made it happen. It was a band after all. Love em all Jack, Jorma, Grace.... and uhm the other guys haha. Not forgotten.

Where has this gem been hiding? Does (or has) Hot Tuna been performing this one?

[headwall07]

I wonder if the Airplane ever got any royalties from the flying toaster screen saver people...anyone know anything about that?

[louiseduvee]

Mr. Balin (pronounced Bahl in) was a great musician, this song is what hardcore junkies only think they know.

L:D 5/5

Jack was the Airplane!

First heard this song when I was in hospital with a broken leg. I was 15. Stayed with ever since! Thanks for posting - great to hear it again.

Jorma kaukonen made Jefferson airplane HAPPEN!!

[mixer1003]

I can't say I disagree, but the other members of the band also made the Airplane happen. That band could not have done what they did without the rest of the core members during the years after Grace Slick joined the band. Marty, Paul, Grace, Jack, and Spencer were just as important.. I have respect for all of them as musicians, they made some amazing music.Kantner is an asshole, but Jefferson Airplane would never have existed without him or any of the other main members.

I think I liked what was inside of the album cover better than the outside....

[catface]

One of the best cuts on the album and one of my all time favorites!

[Yangwastaken]

Awesome!!!

[Yangwastaken]

[Yangwastaken]
