At nearly one full hour, this band, Jefferson Airplane, which would eventually become “Jefferson Starship in the late 1970s packs a powerful punch, with their second released album “Surrealistic Pillow”. Classified as a “psychedelic rock” band, it really has more blues and folk rock influences than pure drug hallucination inspired tunes. Of course, one of the bands biggest hits, “White Rabbit” does have an unvarnished narrative of hallucinogenic drug references that gave Jefferson Airplane that “psychedelic” moniker. As this is my second “published review,” I have to say that I’m not in the habit of actually listening to an entire side of an album, let alone “both sides” of an album. But this process is a very healthy one for me, as I listen to “all tracks” of an album, including the “deep cuts” of an album that rarely get any airplay on radio stations. I felt that these “deep cuts” including “Today,” “Comin’ Back to Me,” and “Embrionic Journey” among other Jefferson Airplane songs deserve fresh hearings. This is the third album I reviewed, although Lou Reed’s “Transformer” never made it to the “publishing stage.” Nevertheless, Jefferson Airplane’s album “Surrealistic Pillow” is an album that I play again and again, as there are many songs on this album that sound pleasing to this writer’s ear. I give it five out of five stars.
