RCA/Legacy's 32-track Jefferson Airplane retrospective
focuses on the influential psychedelic rock
collective's late-'60s/early-'70s heydays. From 1966
(Jefferson Airplane Takes Off) through 1972 (Thirty
Seconds Over Winterland), the group released nine
albums that effectively shadowed the era, blending
social themes with drugs, paranoia, and youthful
rebellion/revolution. Essential may be a bit much for
the casual fan, as its two discs delve deep into the
group's eclectic catalog, stacking lost gems like
"Eskimo Blue Day" and "Third Week in the Chelsea"
alongside radio staples like "Somebody to Love,"
"White Rabbit," and "Volunteers," but those who are
willing to take the plunge will be rewarded with the
band's most thorough, informative, and thoughtfully
paced anthology to date. - James Christopher Monger

purely for the public, so you can hear that hard-to-
scene rip of, and the actual retails of albums at
proper quality standards so you can decide whether
you really want to buy them or not; all without
asking for anything in return.
Also, unlike our predecessors, iRO gives back first
to the people who do all the work, the rippers. With
this thought at heart, all members have an equal say
in all group decisions and are welcome in all group
channels. Equality, quality and democracy, values
all good groups should share.
From the first day of 2004, iRO began encoding in
the APS setting (VBR). The CBR rips of the prior two
years will remain untouched until the re-ripping
process is in place. The original rips will be nuked
as they become replaced.
