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

Every day I try so hard to know your mind
And find out what's inside you
Time goes on and I don't know just where you are
Or how I'm going to find you
You can do whatever you please
The world's waiting to be seized
You can collect all neglect
Or all the self-respect you need, what you need

And I know... and I know... and I know

Your mind's guaranteed
It's all you'll ever need
So what do you want with me?

We live but once
But good things can be found around
In spite of all the sorrow

If you see black
You can't look back
You can't look front
You cannot face tomorrow

Some have it nice
Fat and round, flash, paradise
They're very wise to their disguise
Trying to revolutionize tomorrow

And I know... and I know... and I know

Your mind's guaranteed
It's all you'll ever need
So what do you want with me?
