Biography

American psychedelic rock band from San Francisco, CA. During the late 1960s, the band (along with [a246650]) epitomized San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury culture. The band began in 1965 when singer [a399028] met guitarist [a362004]. They began as a folk-rock group, added lead guitarist [a361998], drummer [a499363], singer [a1198456], and bassist [a2550313], who was soon replaced by [a362002]. The group was signed by [l11358], and their debut album charted (#128), selling 10,000 copies in the San Francisco area. Anderson left to have a baby and was replaced by [a346261], Spence left to form [a350475] and was replaced by [a399027], which began the group's definitive lineup. They performed at the Woodstock and Altamont festivals but then had its second major shakeup when Dryden left in 1970 to join [a476171] (he was replaced by [a361991]), and the band stopped touring when Slick became pregnant by Kantner. Kaukonen and Casady formed [a381929] In 1971, but remained members of the Airplane. The same year the group formed its own label, [l982249], distributed by RCA. In February 1974 Slick and Kantner officially formed the [a131970], which brought the original phase of the group to a close. The band was inducted into Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 1996 as a Performer.

LYRICS

Her neon mouth with the blinking soft smile
Nothing but an electric sign
You could say she has an individual style
She's part of a colorful time
Secrecy of lady-chrome-covered clothes
You wear cause you have no other
But I suppose no one knows
You're my plastic fantastic lover

Her rattlin' cough never shuts off
Is nothin' but a used machine
Her aluminum finish, slightly diminished
Is the best I ever have seen

Cosmetic baby plugged into me
Never ever find another
I realize no one's wise
To my plastic fantastic lover

The electrical dust is starting to rust
Her trapezoid thermometer taste
All the red tape is mechanical rape
Of the TV program waste

Data control and IBM
Science is mankind's brother
But all I see is drainin' me
On my plastic fantastic lover
