I’m so down over Paul Kantner’s passing. It seems stupid to be so effected by the death of someone I never met, but this sucks.
I’m putzing around on youtube. Here are a few…
This is from February 1970. It’s not Spencer Dryden on drums, so it must be Joe Covington. Give this a NSFW tag due to language and a little hippie toplessness, but it’s worth it for “We Can Be Together” and “Mexico”.

Did you know that Jefferson Airplane did a rooftop concert that was broken up by the cops a whole year before the Beatles?
Monterey Pop.

This one says it’s from 1970, but I don’t think it is. I think it’s a bit earlier than that. Spencer Dryden is on the drums and I think he left in December 1969 after Altamont. But what do I know. This clip more or less proves that Jack Cassidy is a god. Just saying.
