Our friend Roger mentioned the song “House on Pooh Corner” a few days ago and hinted that he might be doing a post about it … or at least that was what I thought he was hinting at! Turns out he knew of another song with a similar title, but … OH BOY is it a different song with a different concept! Roger’s post is … deep. It is thought-provoking. The music is jarring and not one I hope to hear again any time soon, but Roger’s thoughts and musings are definitely worth the read! Thank you, Sir Roger!
Forewarning: This is one of those long post that might appear to be meandering. Some posts need the elements of stories to get to the point. This is one.
Yes, there they are, Jefferson Airplane, one of the bands which are automatically associated with the many often inaccurately named time from 1965 to its stuttering end 1969 – 1970.
Like many bands of that era, the more you read about them, even filtering out the hyperbole, the less you feel affection for them as individuals or a group of folk, even if the music does stick. My own opinion was they were played out by 1969 and the music was dying…Marty Balin originator of the band was to leave, disillusioned with those politics of the band…
So having set the mood, let’s take a look at one particular but not universally known song produced when they were still fresh.

The only Jefferson Airplane song I ever bought was ‘White Rabbit’, a ‘drug-culture’ song released in 1967. I had never heard of this one before.
Best wishes, Pete.

I do love “White Rabbit”! Hmmmm … maybe time for me to play that one again soon! I had never heard this one, either, until Roger posted this … and I hope not to hear it again!

Wouldn’t that hack Trump off, finding someone in the front room, dozing off, then casually waking up when he blusters at them, and they say.
‘No. S’ok. You carry on. Don’t mind me,’ and go back to sleep.
To adapt from Mr Scott of the Enterprise:
