Unless you lived through it, hard to overstate how dead #Vinyl was in the early 2000s. I picked this up from a freebie bin. It was given out if you bought the Aerosmith CD boxset. They couldn’t even give it away.

From 1970, The Worst of Jefferson Airplane. My personal intro to the band. The Grace Slick era was quite good but the original lineup with Signé Anderson always begs the “what if” of the sound and the band. All good music.
