  • I can smell the pot.

  • A fine impassioned melodic frenzy - love the intertwined Balin/Slick vocal lines, and Casady's grungy bass lines - and that feedback intro - too cool

  • The computer you write your notes on was originally developed by the people who were developing the tech behind the music you are listening to in this song, the music these folks developed helped fuel the revolution that brought you your little button box where you write your mindless inanities and criticize my generation... think about it - and we brought you this tech!!!

  • jesus christ dude theres more to 60s songs than drugs

  • Voted one of my top twenty psycedelic songs of all time.

  • @Kostas4e In Baltimore 1969 we called it the winter of the blue snow. Quite elegant - how it came down. We all saw it. North Charles and 2838 Calvert street were places were the thing that was happening was celebrated. Gone now, as I suppose it had to be - just a moment in time. Glad I was there though.

  • Doesn't the sky look green today? so epic

  • This was released as a single before "After Bathing at Baxters" came out a couple of months later. It probably freaked out a lot of AM listeners, as it never had the commercial impact of "Somebody to Love" and "White Rabbit". I however LOVED it and thought it should have went straight to number 1. But I was only 10.

  • @pbrucpaul drugs will always complicate and put an end to good things love the music .

  • Too much of a conflict between Garce Slick and Marty Balin. Eventually through all the drugs and competition between the two, Balin got phased out. Grace Slick was good, but Marty Balin was the real artist. At 3:31 I love the way Spencer Dryden on drums brings up the Tempo and Kaukonen takes the rest.

  • This was the best of the airplane after balin left they were not as good vocally

  • @ruzz3ii: Some dank smellin' stuff huh?
