The debut Jefferson Airplane album was dominated by singer Marty Balin,
who wrote or co-wrote all the original material and sang most of the lead vocals
in his heartbreaking tenor with Paul Kantner and Signe Anderson providing harmonies and backup.
(Anderson's lead vocal on "Chauffeur Blues" indicated she was at least the equal of her successor,
Grace Slick, as a belter.) The music consisted mostly of folk-rock love songs,
the most memorable of which were "It's No Secret" and "Come up the Years."
(There was also a striking version of Dino Valente's "Get Together" recorded years
before the Youngbloods' hit version.) Jorma Kaukonen already displayed a talent
for mixing country, folk, and blues riffs in a rock context,
and Jack Casady already had a distinctive bass sound...(AllMusic)
