Album Notes & Community Reviews

Given a characteristically self-deprecating title by the San Francisco countercultural icons, this compilation surveys their most successful and culturally resonant recordings. The tracklist perfectly balances Grace Slick's soaring, acidic vocal performances with the group's more melodic, folk-tinged psychedelic explorations.

Genres

Descriptors: melodic, fuzz, harmonies, dual-vocals, political
