Jeff Tamarkin
432 pages, Atria; 1 edition (June 3, 2003)
The most successful and influential Rock band to emerge from San Francisco during the 1960s, "Jefferson Airplane" created the sound of a generation.
In this groundbreaking biography of the band, veteran music writer and historian "Jeff Tamarkin" produces a portrait of the band like none that has come before it. Having worked closely with "Jefferson Airplane" for more than a decade, Tamarkin had unprecedented access to the band members, their families, friends, lovers, crew members, fellow musicians, cultural luminaries, even the highest-ranking politicians of the time.
More than just a definitive history, "Got a Revolution!" is a Rock legend unto itself.
"Jann Wenner", editor-in-chief and publisher of Rolling Stone, wrote, "The classic [Jefferson] Airplane lineup were both architects and messengers of a psychedelic age, a liberation of mind and body that profoundly changed American art, politics, and spirituality. It was a renaissance that could only have been born in San Francisco, and the Airplane, more than any other band in town, spread the good news nationwide".
