#1328 Jefferson Airplane - After Bathing At Baxter's

You gotta admire how much this thing commits to the whole psychedelic thing - there's barely a concession to be found. Which isn't to say that it's unlistenable, but it serpents all about itself, down holes and around foliage and disappears and doesn't necessarily come back to find you. The rhythms lose eachother, the chords seem incidental, it's sloppy and accidental - but charming in its distant way for it. If we're gonna make a rock record a trip, let's fucking go for it, and whoever's up for it can come along and the rest won't get a backwards look 3.5/5
