Reviews (page 14 of 14)
i'm loving hearing how these early stereo albums discovered how to work with 2 channels. i'm not a huge fan overall, but the jack casady's bass work on this album is terriffic.
Eh. Not my cup of hallucinogenic tea, but an interesting listen.
This one was alright. I knew a couple of the songs, but there were some that were a bit strange, lyric-wise. Which I guess is to be expected with the album title.
Great energy and moods
Yeah totally dug this album! Of course there's Want Somebody To Love and White Rabbit but the rest of the songs were great there was also Comin' Back To Me which was hauntingly beautiful. Would totally put this on at the mammoth house to chill out to. Solid as fuck
Solid. Love some songs and others are so so
Really nice instrumental piece on this album called “Embryonic Journey”. Spotify seems to be missing some tracks, but “Somebody to Love” and “White Rabbit” remain great tracks and the highlights of this album.
Very good album. Grace Slick’s vocals are distinctive and powerful. Find and check out the isolated vocal track for ‘White Rabbit’.
Smooth easy listening, straight out of the 60’s. You can definitely hear how they inspired a ton of other bands in that era.
Classics, really good
Embryonic Journey is one of my favorite pieces of music. Jorma really impresses. A classic psychedelic journey back to the 60s

my dad thinks that people who like jefferson airplane are rich kids who dodged the war because they were rich and think they're deeper than they actually are which honestly makes sense but this album was decent
este é um daqueles que fez 100% parte da minha rotação no secundário/8°-9° mas não o oiço desde essa altura so it will be nice white rabbit still goes so hard bass line come back baby!!! ou nunca tinha o ouvido de uma ponta à outra (possible but doubtful) ou esqueci-me da maior parte. its great tho! 4.5/5
Not really my vibe. Nice album, but kind of just not for me.
I don't think that I actually know that the two big hits on this album were by Jefferson Airplane. Basically when it comes to certain strains of classic rock, there is a big batch of songs whose artists I don't know and a big batch of artist names I know whose songs I can't identify. I didn't listen to this album as closely as some others, but I did listen to it 3-4 times, and I liked it. The rest of the songs fit right in with the hits. My personal enjoyment: 4/5 Did it belong on this list: 5/5
Good album
ok I’m bored of doing this when no one else does, so no effort to write my amazing reviews any more 💔
White Rabbit. The rest of the album is pretty similar...jangly, acoustic, hippie pop.
got dull really quickly
Can definitely hear the sounds of San Francisco during the hippie movement in this album 9/10
Classic 60s Sound
Pleasantly surprised quite enjoyed. Nice beats and tunes
Long and boring aside from White Rabbit and anytime Grace Slick sings.
3.5| Acabé conociendo mas rolas de lo que creía, muy buena banda. Tiene cosas muy raras como un tremendo blues en medio de tanta psicodelia. Sin duda una voz icónica la de Grace Silk y ni idea de que fueran los mismos de Starship.
3.5 | Muy buenos momentos de lo más groovy psicodélico: a ratos pesa el estilito de cantar los coros como el que no me gusta de CSNY, pero cuando cantan directo, en particular cuando entra la voz de Grace Slick, suenan muy bien. Además de recordar a Cable Guy con "Somebody To Love" me gustaron "Go To Her", "White Rabbit" y "Come Back Baby" No sé por qué en la cultura pop gringa son tan conocidos y en México a duras penas llegó a sonar una o dos en Universal. ¿Sí cacharon la última rola que suena en el último episodio de Friends?
Some excellent songs on this album - White Rabbit, Somebody to Love
Bangin and iconic.
Mochi
false
Surprisingly variable song type/style through the album.
Somebody to love is a banging pop song and White rabbit a memorable slice of Lewis Carroll inspired oddness. The rest was fairly unremarkable - the soundtrack to a sixties teenage bedroom full of long hair, paisley, and hashish.
@@@½ nice early psychedelic sounds. nice guitar too.
Classic old rock. Songs kinda blend together but I can appreciate it. Has the classic song “Somebody to love”
I'm really into this! The late 60s/early 70s have such a unique sound. White Rabbit is the only one I've heard before, but it's always made me paused to admire it. So good.
There are some classics off of this album, but I went through my Jefferson Airplane phase in college.
I really rather enjoyed this. There are plenty of good songs and the album has been put together really well, each song in exactly the spot it needed to be. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. A fun listen.
Great album! Featuring White Rabbit and Somebody to love.
Classic. Love it.
Couple good singles on here. Very organic sounding. Decent enough
Oldie but a goodie. Mixing is definitely dated but the sound is fire
Good, not as psychedelic as I was expecting. More Beatles/mamas&papas/Simon and Garfunkel folk 60s vibes.
Funky 60s vibe.
Like this. Great musicianship, good songs, well produced. Definitely one of the better psychedelic records from the 60s.
Have already listened
A fun foray into psychedelic rock. A couple bangers.
Didn't realize I knew so many songs! The hits were still my favorite (white rabbit, find somebody to love) but all of it was good
Ugh. Maybe it was because I was listening to this while working but I couldn't get on with it. In fact, it was quite annoying in the background. Clever musically but too 'busy' for me in my current mood. I have no desire to listen to this album again. Best tracks are White Rabbit and Someone To Love. 2/5
Sama biisi eri variaatioilla
This was good - especially someone to love!
Great album, more than a 2 hit wonder
Not really my cup of tea but certainly listenable.
Psykedelisk 60’er rock, få standouts
Monipuolinen levy, muttei liian. Muutama timanttikin joukossa, mut pari tylsää biisiä pudottaa arvosanaa
Got better as it went along. 3.5
Cool early psychedelic rock sound. Favorites include "My Best Friend" and "Somebody to Love".
This sounds clearly like an important album in the development of folk rock, and a few tracks are quite good. I found not the singles but the B-side (and bonus tracks) to be most interesting. The relative of blandness of the first half is unfortunate, as there is a clear, incomplete image of excellent pop music. Though I'm tempted, no malus for the cover's violin bait-and-switch.
1967. Key Songs: Somebody to Love, White Rabbit
Last three songs - “White Rabbit,” especially - go hard.
Awesome psycadaelic rock classic
Better than I expected. Good mix of hard hitting songs and calmer relaxed songs.
this isn't too bad, nice lil catchy numbers. Thank fuck it wasn't more turd like iggy pop. Also, Jim Carrey did the best version of somebody to love. 3/5.
A bit hippy dippy.... it’s not my thing but I can appreciate that it is others.
