 (1 Customer Review)
2007 digitally remastered two CD release of Jefferson Airplane's complete final show recorded at the Winterland in San Francisco in September of 1972. 21 tracks in all mainly taken from their final two studio albums. Includes: 'Wooden Ships', 'Have You Seen The Saucers?', 'Crown of Creation', 'Somebody To Love', 'Papa John's Down Home Blues' and more. Charly.
Recorded in 1972 at the Jefferson Airplane's final show before re-emerging as Jefferson Starship two years later, LAST FLIGHT captures the end of an era. Over the course of these two discs, we're taken on a tour of the Airplane's history, as they tear into career highlights like their signature smash, "Somebody to Love," all snarling guitar and wailing vocals; the moody sci-fi folk-rock of "Wooden Ships;" and the psychedelic glory of "Crown of Creation." The sounds the band seared into the heads of the crowd at the Winterland that night seem just as potent all these decades later.
Jefferson Airplane: Paul Kantner (vocals, guitar); Grace Slick (vocals); Jorma Kaukonen (guitar); Jack Casady (bass guitar).

Saying something is "the best" can be interpreted many different ways depending on circumstances. To say that this is the best album
harmonica player P.T. Gazell has made on his own doesn't mean much since it seems to also be the only album he has concocted as a leader. As a sideman, sometimes credited as Phil Gazell with related spelling errors, he was one of the hottest players in The West Texas Music Company, best known as backup band for the late Johnny Paycheck.
Fans of harmonica players know Gazell and find him technically way ahead of the pack on the little instrument, able to expressively articulate each note in a rapid passage with feeling as well as skill, inviting comparisons with jazz masters such as the tenor saxophonists Warne Marsh or Sonny Rollins. A "best" can be passed out in terms of harmonica playing that surely means something: Pace Yourself is one of the best recordings highlighting the harmonica ever made, pure and simple. This includes performances in all genres that the harmonica has worked its way into -- which with a bit of research is revealed to be just about everything including Indian raga.
It isn't a matter of some genres -- in this case country, bluegrass, and Western swing -- coming off as better than others. The Gazell recording, originally created in the late '70s in Lexington, KY, is simply transcendent in its mastery of the music involved. Another "best" might be in terms of melodic interpretation and improvisation, because this is what makes the music from these sessions so timeless. Bluegrass fans might drool at the lineup, which includes Ricky Skaggs and Jerry Douglas, who were both hanging out in Lexington in this period. To a man, the players always display wisdom in their choice of when to stay very close to the theme and when to take off and go somewhere else. It is really beautiful improvising from all concerned, not just the harmonica player.
Other aspects of Gazell's talents are more of a surprise on this CD reissue, heightened by the addition of two bonus tracks featuring The West Texas Music Company ...
