Perhaps the quintissential San Francisco psychedelic band, melded acoustic blues, folk, and rock in a furiously narcotic 1960s haze.
Behind the acid rock guitar playing of Jorma Kaukonen and the soaring twin vocals of Grace Slick and Marty Balin, Jefferson Airplane defined the San Francisco psychedelic rock sound in the 1960s. They released seven studio albums, five of which went gold, and a million-selling hits collection chronicled their eight chart singles. They also toured regularly, being the only band to play at all the major '60s rock festivals -- Monterey, Woodstock, and even Altamont. Rather than formally breaking up, they mutated into other configurations, including Hot Tuna and Jefferson Starship, and went on to further success during the following decades. ~ William Ruhlmann
