One of the bands weaker efforts.

Good album. That's all I'm going to say, to prevent myself from spouting some nonsense about how overrated this album is.

Oops.

75/100

Laughing d'oh!

Yes. They had 8 albums actually. And a whole bunch of side projects.

After Bathing at Baxter's & Volunteers are the only other albums I've heard by them, and I like them both quite a bit.

Can't believe that this is the band that would one day bring us 'We built this city on rock and roll' d'oh!

of course. Very Happy

'JA Takes off' from 1966 is a nice folk-psych rock album, the only non-Slick/pre-Slick album.

Surrealistic Pillow is the second studio album.

'After Bathing at Baxter's' is also an 1967-release studio album, but a far different one from the others, this is the king of all the acid albums.

'A Crown of creation' from 1968 is more folkish but it is also a good album.

'Volunteers' from 1969 is their second most successfull abum, I really like this one. Especially Slick's songs. It was the last album with the successfull line-up (Slick, Balin, Kantner, Kaukonen, Casady and Dryden)

'Bark' from 1971 is a good album with some really weird tracks but I like it a lot.

I don't know much about their last album, 'Long John Silver' released in 1972, the only album I haven't listened it yet.

If you want to listen to more JA albums I recommend Baxter's, Crown of Creation and Volunteers. Wink
