Jefferson Airplane Volunteers on LP
In their late-’60s heyday, Jefferson Airplane embodied the era’s revolutionary attitude and experimental spirit like no other rock act. Their unique combination of adventurous musicianship, visionary lyrics and personal charisma defined San Francisco psychedelia and established the band as quintessential Aquarian-age messengers.
1969’s Volunteers coincided with Jefferson Airplane’s performance at the Woodstock festival and is one of the group’s most popular albums. It’s also one of their most explicitly political efforts, calling for revolutionary action and counter-cultural unity on such memorable anthems as “We Can Be Together,” “Wooden Ships,” “Eskimo Blue Day” and the album’s iconic title track, with the band members’ formidable musicianship augmented by guest players Jerry Garcia and Nicky Hopkins. Volunteers’ uncompromising stance originally made the album a source of controversy, but today it’s rightfully recognized as a rock landmark.
As part of Sundazed's ongoing mission to present classic LPs in all their original sonic and visual glory, the first generation stereo masters were sourced and the cover art was meticulously reproduced.
