+susieice Posted January 29, 2016 #1 Share Posted January 29, 2016 This is getting horrible. Whoever is building a rock band in heaven has taken an awful lot of talent already in 2016. And January is just ending. http://www.sfgate.com/music/article/Jefferson-Airplane-s-Paul-Kantner-dies-at-74-6791483.php 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taun Posted January 29, 2016 #2 Share Posted January 29, 2016 It's been a really rough month so far... RIP Paul... I did like this quote of his: “Jefferson Airplane had the fortune or misfortune of discovering Fender Twin Reverb amps and LSD in the same week while in college. That’s a great step forward." 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the curve of the bell curve ... I wonder what the scene will be like for the coming generation of youtube sensations ~ Saw the Jefferson Starship in concert. Good show! Too young to have seen the Airplane, but Starship ended it's concert with Somebody to Love. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Careful_perspective Posted January 30, 2016 #6 Share Posted January 30, 2016 I just started getting into Jefferson Airplane this past year after going to the Woodstock Museum. This news makes me really sad. At least Paul leaves a legacy of his music that other people can enjoy for years to come! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+susieice Posted January 31, 2016 Author #7 Share Posted January 31, 2016 (edited) Two from the same band on the same day!! Are you kidding me?? Apparently the original singer died on the same day as founder Paul Kantner. https://classicrock....rson-dead-at-74 Edited January 31, 2016 by susieice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

little_dreamer Posted February 6, 2016 #10 Share Posted February 6, 2016 RIP. He had some good guitar work, and he was NOT a part of the band called Starship (1985+). He had left the band by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+susieice Posted February 6, 2016 Author #11 Share Posted February 6, 2016 After the band was grounded by feuds and a lawsuit, Mr. Kantner and Slick transformed the group into Jefferson Starship in 1974, taking the name from a Kantner solo album.
