Five Stars For Artwork, Too!
The other reviewers have said it all regarding the quality of the music. I first purchased this on vinyl in 1970. It is a five star recording in all ways! But the original artwork is first class. I've been a record collector for fifty years, and have never seen so much care taken in the artistic design of a 'greatest hits' album. Both the LP and the CD have these highlights: The cover of the record could have been made in the '20s or '30s; it is a beautiful design that catches the eye. The record label is the 1920s Victor 'Scroll' design used on 78 rpm records during the late '20's and early '30's. The tray card of the CD is a reproduction of a 1918 record sleeve, and the CD booklet has a reproduction of Francis Barraud's 1899 painting of Nipper listening to 'His Master's Voice'. The liner notes of the CD are also very good.

This is a highly recommended CD, but I also urge those who enjoy classic artwork to get a copy of the original gatefold LP. I only wish that the original Nipper painting reproduction could have been made available for framing. It would have looked great on the wall above the Victrola!.


A bunch of renegade rockers!


If we had to remark the two basic elements that featured, launched and even kept the whole attention over them, these would be on one hand, to make us realize the arrival of a new life through their messages and second, the creative mature easily carved in relief in their lyrics that, somehow, foresaw the next years to come as we may feel in "Volunteers", one of the most reminded emblematic songs in Woodstock Festival. Evidently, the term "The worst of Jefferson airplane", was by itself, an additional signal of overt irreverence, expressed as a twist inside n expected order.

Despite all these factors, Jefferson wrought - with golden letters - a very distinguished place into a vertiginuous and surrealistic decade as the sixties was.

A remarkable detail: Chushingura is an instrumental piece dedicated to Akira Kurosawa. .


Good For Someone Who Wants To Get Into Jefferson Airplane
It includes all the bands biggest hits, somebody to love, white rabbit, and volunteers etc. This to me is a good first time Cd for someone whos just starting out on jefferson airplane. Anyways its a good album buy this with Surealistic Pillow, one of the greatest psychedellic albums of all time.


DON'T BE FOOLED BY THE 'TITLE'
This is a "keeper"!! Especially if your interested in one of the most popular groups of the 60's!! ( And it's a "hard to find" CD, too ) Actually - it the BEST OF JEFFERSON AIRPLANE!!
