In late 1966, the Jefferson Airplane recruited Grace Slick, and the rest, as they say, was history. Over the course of the next 6 months, the Airplane took center stage as one of the leading bands of the new psychedelic rock movement that emerged from San Francisco. Their breakthrough album, Surrealistic Pillow, produced by the Dead's Jerry Garcia, and released in February 1967, spawned two huge hits, Somebody To Love and White Rabbit. The Airplane played at the Human Be-In in January and then at the Monterrey Pop Festival in June, helping inaugurate the Summer of Love, in which thousands of young people converged on the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco. The year 1967 was as one of those transcendent moments in rock history, with debut albums from Grateful Dead, The Doors and Jimi Hendrix, as well the release on June 1 of what many folks believe is the greatest album of all time, Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band by the Beatles. The Airplane were an integral part of this musical revolution and this soundboard, from May 19, 1967, 52 years ago today, captures them just as they begin their rise to national prominence.
