Pressed at Pallas in Germany!
As self-appointed executors of chaos and anarchy, Jefferson Airplane turned on their fans with musical sexual allegories, drug-extolling lyrics and revolutionary songs. In 1966, armed with a lucrative recording contract from RCA-Victor, they won against much opposition from recording company bosses and released their album Volunteers, thereby bringing what is probably the very best recording from their early years to the public.
"Guitarist Jorma Kaukonen called Paul Kantner's revolutionary cheerleading "naive," but that didn't prevent the band from delivering this album with anthemic fervor. Also here: The gorgeous "Wooden Ships" and "Eskimo Blue Day," where Grace Slick famously sings, "The human name doesn't mean shit to a tree." - www.rollingstone.com
