Music reviews of Last Flight
Music Review: A great addition to the Jefferson Airplane discography
Rating: 5 Stars
This 2-CD set really rocks. No going out with a whimper. The Airplane finished their seven-year run in a blaze of glory. The great majority of tracks are from their last two studio albums, "Bark" (1971) and "Long John Silver" (1972).
I see that a number of reviewers here have knocked the concert for not having more of their songs from earlier albums. Well, at the time the band didn't know this would be the end (Jorma quit just days afterward to start recording "Quah"), and it was the grand conclusion of their tour to promote "Long John Silver," so what do you expect?
I am truly impressed at the material done here from that album. Songs that were lackluster in the studio recording - with a bad mix to boot - are performed with a riveting intensity. The title tract of "Long John Silver" has a makeover that is nothing short of a remarkable. Grace belts out its lyrics to a musical wall of sound driven by Jack Casady's bass guitar.
"Wooden Ships" from "Volunteers" is also nice, and Papa John Creach lends an added dimension not heard in any other Airplane recordings of that tune.
The concluding medley is also a real kicker.
I concur with a prior reviewer that if you are not familiar with the Airplane, this should not be your starting point. For that I would recommend "Surrelaistic Pillow" or "The Worst of Jefferson Airplane." This set is the icing on the cake for us longtime fans.
