Compared to more structured, musically-skilled, technically gifted "psychedelic" bands like my personal favorite, Pink Floyd, Airplane's songs and riffs seemed a bit pedestrian, simplistic, and their philosophical/conceptual themes on albums compared to Floyd's Dark Side, WYWH, Animals, and the Wall don't add up. But, its not with the Floyd, IMHO, that Airplane/Starship fall very short on in terms of great lyrical/musicianship, they hardly relate to ELP, Yes, Genesis w/and w/o Peter Gabriel. I would also argue that in terms of who might be the most influential band to emerge from the mid-late 60's S.F. "counterculture" Haight/Ashbury scene, the Grateful Dead left a far bigger, larger and harder to replace musical imprint from that time period. Other bands from that era like Steve Miller Band and Santana didnt even sound like the Airplane or the Dead on albums or on-stage, except for maybe Santana with their long, free-form, improvised jams and solos. Santana, IMHO, also was the last great "underground" acid-rock band to emerge from the late 60's "counter-culture" movement or scene. By 1969 and 1970, Haight-Ashbury wasnt exactly a safe, clean and peaceful part to be apart of due to over-population, bad drugs like herion, speed, methaphetimes, and rising crime and poverty rates had led to a lot of original artists, musicians to leave and go elsewhere.

Sunday Aug. 17th, 1969. At the muddy miracle that was Woodstock, the most miraculous performance just might have been Jefferson Airplane’s. The band had been one of the first to sign on for the festival, their imprimatur prompting many other acts to hop on board, and their stature had landed them a coveted headlining slot closing Saturday night’s schedule. But, as the torrential downpours and the unexpected crush of half a million people kept on delaying their set, the chances of putting on anything approaching a quality performance seemed to diminish. According to Paul Kantner, “We were supposed to go on at 10:30 at night and we’d been up and down about four or five times on acid that night, getting ready to go on, and then everything was delayed for whatever reasons. So, we didn’t get on until like 7:00 the next morning and everybody was pretty much burned out.”

When I mentioned on another post that I heard Jefferson Airplane perform at Woodstock, a few nasty people called me a liar and said I was not at WS. I really don’t care what the haters say, since I did in fact attend Woodstock. I lived in a Philly suburb and WMMR FM in Philly promoted the festival that was in Bethel New York, not Woodstock New York. We lived only a few hours away, but it took most of Friday night to get there in my 57 Chevy. I was 19 at the time. My travel companions were my brother Garry 17, his GF Laverne also 17 and two neighbors Steve and Tom. Just past Bethel I became impatient and drove my Chevy across a field and got stuck in the mud. A farmer drove up on a tractor and offered to tow me for $5. He towed my car to where others were parked and that’s how we finally got to Woodstock. There was a payphone in Bethel so I walked there to call Mom. She told me to get the hell out of Woodstock because the news said it was a disaster area. I told Mom everything was cool. Then I met two women my age from Pierrefonds Canada. I spent most of the rest of the day and night with Carol. That afternoon we sat far from the stage while Santana performed. At the time I had no idea who Santana was. Sunday Morning I heard Jefferson Airplane singing the lyrics to Volunteers, “We are volunteers of America, We are volunteers of America.” I’d never heard the song before, so I thought that was the title of the song. I was called a liar for saying it rained at Wood☮stock. The same person called Grateful Dead guitarist Bob Weir a liar too for saying, “every time I touched the electric guitar, I got shocked.” Next the armchair hate critic will claim Weir was not at Woodstock either. Is my memory perfect? Of course not since that was over 55 years ago. But some of the hateful comments I received are from people who are the antithesis of the spirit of Woodstock. I suspect they are in the MAGA cult based on their harsh language. If someone offers constructive criticism or tells me something I didn’t know about Woodstock, I’m open to that. But if you're an angry, mean person take a hike. On FB there are pages dedicated to Woodstock. People share their thoughts and experiences and no one calls them liars or talks, trash. My brother Garry often says Woodstock changed him. Like my brother, Woodstock changed me. On Oct.15th 1969 there were Anti-War demonstrations, all across America. I went to the one in Philly with my two brothers, one a Vietnam Veteran. On Nov. 15th I was at the Moratorium to End the War in Vietnam, in DC. The massive peaceful crowd reminded me of Woodstock. Peace to all who keep the Woodstock Spirit alive in the 21st Century. The Woodstock Warrior ☮

First heard them in 67 from my older sister, & i was on my way to the woodstock generation, i was only 12 ,by 69 my hair was getting long & mexican weed was 15 bucks an oz. The rest is the same for most of the kids around me, The Airplane led the way into the 70s Jorma, & the rest were some of our generations most creative musicians, Jimi, Clapton, Humble Pie , Tull .The Allmans, The list is endless, Volunteers was my fav. airplane song ,& this version is so good . It tipifies what was to come !

I stayed up all night to hear them play🥰 It was early Sunday morning when then took the stage, just as the sun was appearing. Grace joked that it was breakfast in bed for 300,000 people. Well worth it.

I was born around that time of Woodstock. It's funny, but also a source of pride knowing my parents were much "cooler" back in the day than my generation in their 20s/30s.
