How do you feel?  It’s Friday! 

Welcome aboard our corner of the globe. A fantastic day outside and it was as well in 1972 as the Airmachine fly’s back to hear the Jefferson Airplane perform in the park.  Not any park but Central. 

Please remember at any moment on an Aircast it can be a rare memory from the Jefferson Airplane, Jefferson Starship, KBC, Wooden Ships, Marty Balin, Paul Kantner to name several. 

Hope Friday will be fantastic and I look forward to hearing you later on as our flight returns to Rock And Roll Island. 

All the best,

Jefferson Airplane- One toll that you won’t mind stopping for withh 3 Airplane members there to greet you

http://www.takemetoacircustent.net/media/JeffersonAirplaneTakeMeToACircusTentJefersonAircast33BVTW.mp3  

Kantner, Slick & Freiberg – Baron Von Tollbooth  - 1973 – Your Mind Has Left Your Body –Wally Heider’s Studio-San Francisco, California.

How are you this evening?  After a delay at the Airfield we are ready to fly.  Thanks for boarding. To make up for the Air Computer not passing the test for several hours I’ll try to have an update in the next 3 hours again! Relax and see if this is one toll you don’t mind stopping for.  When you look you’ll hear 3 Airplane members. 

All the best,

Jefferson Airplane- Another unreleased version of an Airplane classic from many flights ago!

http://www.takemetoacircustent.net/media/JeffersonAirplaneTakeMeToACircusTentJefersonAircast33TBF.mp3 

How are you this Monday morning?  The most over paid producer in the business Plastic Fantastic Pete lost the music I wanted to give you first thing today.  It has been located.  Only Pete would file Jefferson Airplane under the letter “C.”  He is a constant source of comedy around the Air Studio. 

While you are on board the flight please relax and check out the recent Allman Brothers videos with Gregg Allman, Dickie Betts, and company.  Of all places it is a home town gig!  Macon, Georgia.  Look to the right of the page and you will see the info.  Click and the videos await your viewing!  Enjoy!

 Jefferson Airplane the unreleased: 

Trial By Fire-  False start and the actual song (instrumental) 1972  Wally Heider’s Studio, San Francisco, California. 

Hope you enjoyed all the recent version Aircast versions. 

Here is what I’m debating would you like to hear a Grace

Slick demo about Cannibalism?  Let me know via Airmail

please or do you think it is a bit much?   Don’t forget the book is on the Jefferson Airplane-

“Take Me To A Circus Tent.” 

Didn’t think the Yankees would salvage the 4-3 win last night in Boston.  Clemons pitched great.  The sad thing is since they started the season 21-29 the three games over the weekend were not about a battle for first place.  It was all about holding on to the Wild Card lead.    

 Thanks as always for flying by and I’ll see you

on the next flight,

Jefferson Airplane-Another “Trial” run for Jerry Garcia and an intense Jam for you fine flyers! Enjoy the journey.

You can please click here:   http://www.takemetoacircustent.net/media/JeffersonAirplaneTakeMeToACircusTentJefersonAircast33.mp3  

How are things going this evening?  I have been battling (Not

well) a scratchy throat but the Aircast #33 1/3 must go on!  Please

forgive the voice being strained.  It doesn’t help when producer

Plastic Fantastic Pete reminds me of this 1,000 times.  He also

had to procure the worst throat lozenges ever developed in the

Airplane Universe. 

Welcome to the Rock Tent and

Aircast #33 1/3.  This is tremendous

if you have not previously been

exposed to Mr. Jerry Garcia

helping out, there is also:  

STUDIO SESSIONS  3/72-5/72

Wally Heider’s Studio, San Francisco, California  

Instrumental Blues Jam 1972 Wally Heider’s Studio Trial By Fire #3 (Instrumental) 1972  

Wally Heider’s Studio W/JERRY GARCIA  

Eat Starch Mom (Instrumental) 1972  Wally Heider’s Studio  

The Jam is worth a few listens!  Hope you enjoy the journey back in time and our flight. I am looking through some more photos for you fineflyers from the massive Herb Greene collection. 

Always be well,

cf                             

P.S.:  Obviously no mention of the Yankee game!!!   

     

 

Jefferson Airplane-Jerry Garcia has a “Trial” with the JA, enjoy it!

Good Saturday afternoon fine people. 

How are you?  This should be a nice one.  Jerry Garcia helps the Airplane with a song that has stood the test of time but a version that didn’t see the light of day. Through the magic of the Airplaneman’s Time Machine we fly back to circa (Is that a cool word) March through April of 1972: 

Trial By Fire #2 (Instrumental)

1972  Wally Heider’s Studio, San Francisco,

California-W/JERRY GARCIA 

Enjoy the treasure it is greattttttttttttttttttttttt. 

A quick thank you to Clarence.  He recorded a PSA for Signe Anderson’s

Health Fund.  I would like to include it in a audio file tonight if possible. 

He was kind enough to give me a mention (Not in the PSA) on his site. 

Thank you to Clarence and anyone that has given Signe even 1.00. 

Hope you fly by later for more rock from the vault. 

Always be well,

Jefferson Airplane Covers Freddie Neil only once in 1989 and here it is!

http://www.takemetoacircustent.net/media/8%2018%2089%20the%20other%20side%20of%20this%20life.mp3

 

 Hello Airplaners and welcome to Friday:

 

August 18, 89 The Jefferson Airplane takes the stage for the first time since 9/22/72 Winterland, San Francisco.  On the opening night of the reunion tour as the final encore the Airplane pulls out of the flight cabin “The Other Side Of This Life.”  Written by Freddie Neil, the J.A. last played the song August 12, 72 at Roosevelt Raceway, Westbury, New York.  No other 1989 show would see this in the set list!  Enjoy a treasure from the Air Machine.  Click please the above link and you’ll be back to 1989.

 

Sorry if any of you on board had trouble with this the past 48 hours.  The Air Staff worked on the flight and here you go!    It is the terrific cover of “Show Me The Way To Go Home” from Paul Kantner’s Wooden Ships.  As mentioned previously Emerson, Lake, & Palmer performed a terrific version as well.  Below is the way to board the flight and hear the tune!  Thanks!

http://www.takemetoacircustent.net/media/SMTWTGH.mp3

 

A very large thanks to you fine people.  Thursday, August 30th, 2007 was the highest views the Airplane Man’s Blog has received!  The Grateful Dead fans helped out.  It is appreciated!  Thanks to all.

 

Remember to check the complete contents of the Flight Blog on the right side ofthe page please.  This week alone we had Allman Brothers rarities, Paul Kantner with Crosby, Stills, and Nash, a member of Cream and ELP and Tull playing a Beatles tune, 6 terrific Jefferson Starship songs from the vaults and much more!

 

It was a terrific surprise the Yankees got 3 games from the Red Sox.  What hurts is still being 5 out with only 1 month left.  The Yanks April and May caused all the problems they are attempting to overcome.  The only blame is in the mirror.

 

Have a great Friday and I’ll try to find some great Jack Casady photos from 66 for you in the next 24 hours.

 

All the best,

craig
