good old stuff!!
A. I like old 'hippie' music and J. is one of my favorites.
This record gives you the best of Airplane thats for sure.
For someone taking of with the Jeffersons Airplane first time: this is the record to buy!
The awesome voice of Grace Slick is cutting you to pieces!
Goood buy!.


For one song only,
I'm giving it five stars brcause it's got a stellar live version of "Have You Seen The Saucers?" which I stumbled upon completely by accidentm and as far as I know this cd's the only place to find it. I'm not giving this album five stars because it's a perfect compilation, because it isn't.

So, while not the best introduction to the band, if you must buy a greatest hits I would buy this one.


Solid, but not the Perfect Compilation!
Featuring their two best known tracks "Somebody to Love" and "White Rabbit" the CD is likely to satisfy the casual buyer. This compilation could be the right investment for the buyer who wants only one CD by this band.

Containing songs from all their 6 studio albums + a couple of live recordings it gives a pretty good general view of the band's recording career.

It will always be a matter of taste and a subject to discussion which specific tracks ought represent the various albums on a compilation CD.

I think most tracks are well chosen even though I miss great tracks like "Come Up the Years" (Takes Off), "My Best Friend" (Surrealistic Pillow), "Martha" (Baxter's) and "The Good Shepherd" (Volunteers)

The booklet of 8 pages is a complete disappointment; with sparse information on the tracks and only a very brief band biography.
