#OTD #MusicHistory in 1965 #MartyBalin opened his own folk singing club #TheMatrix in #SanFrancisco's #TheMarina . His new band would debut there featuring talents he met at the nearby pub #TheDrinkingGourd including guitarist #PaulKantner and singer #SigneAnderson

Today’s listening is ‘Baron von Tollbooth & The Chrome Nun’, the 1973 album by Paul Kantner, Grace Slick & David Freiberg.
Most songs are written by Kantner & Slick (with lyrics either of the usual sci-fi nonsense by Kantner or Slick’s blunt sexual ramblings).
Lead guitar on most tracks by Jerry Garcia with other Jefferson Airplane & The Grateful Dead members joining in!
The album title comes from nick-names for Kantner & Slick, respectively.

#PaulKantner of #JeffersonAirplane died on 28 January 2016, on exactly the same date as Airplane co-founder Signe Toly Anderson.
A prolific member of the #LaurelCanyon scene, Kantner wrote Wooden Ships with #DavidCrosby and recorded a concept album with Crosby, Nash, Jerry Garcia et al.
Crosby nicknamed Kantner and Grace Slick, then a couple, “Baron von Tollbooth & the Chrome Nun”, which became the name of a 1973 album. Rolling Stone called Kantner and Slick “the psychedelic John and Yoko”.

One more from #CrosbyStillsandNash with some help from #PaulKantner. Written on David Crosby's schooner.
