Album Review
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.

Yummy.
by Skateordie69Great.
Wow, "First Reviewer", huh?
by rsmith3813Kind of a shame really; Jefferson Airplane is probably one of my favorite bands that features Grace Slick, and this is probably one of, if not the, best Jefferson Airplane compilations available.
What sets this compilation apart from others like it, such as 'The Worst of Jefferson Airplane', is the fact that is searches deep into the band's history and salvages for its absolute best from all of its history. As you would expect, most of the songs on the album are from 'Surrealistic Pillow', Jefferson Airplane's most defining album, from the super-hits "Somebody to Love" and "White Rabbit" to a live version of the lesser-known "3/5 of a Mile in 10 Seconds." It also features some of the best lesser-known singles and album tracks in the the band's history, such as the non-album single "Mexico" and the forgotten "Have You Seen the Saucers?"
It lacks "Today", one of the best songs on 'Surrealistic Pillow', and "Bringing Me Down", an essential single from 'Takes Off', but with those two songs in addition to these "essential" songs, and you have pretty much everything a casual hardcore fan of Jefferson Airplane needs. Needless to say, this is one of the few "Essential" compilations that actually lives up to its name.
