Jefferson Airplane - The Last Wall Of The Castle Lyrics

I have Jormas book but haven't had a chance to read it yet.....he has had a great career and what a nice guy!

almost 23 years old here, living in the Bay. Airplane today is such an underrated band and it took me a while, but this is their greatest album. This song should've been released as a single

Excellent !!

Gone swirling tears came she went today;
Down Fallen years go by
No place in learning how to cry; I went astray;
Understanding is a virtue, hard to come by
You can teach me how to love
If you'll only try; So please!
Don't give up so soon

Sorry that I hurt her I went astray;
Hurt her mind and broke her heart
But there's no stopping once you start; she went away;
Understanding is a virtue, hard to come by
You can teach me how to love
If you'll only try; So please!
Don't give up so soon

I never knew you the way you are;
The Blinded bird is not sincere
His flying's done from only fear, he's lost his star;
Understanding is a virtue, hard to come by
You can teach me how to love
If you'll only try; So please!
Don't give up so soon

Thank you 😎

Probably tripped to this album more than to any other back in '67.

You lucky boy 😎

normal shreds on this

the original punx

this song fuckin shreds

Yea they fucking have the sound on this album! I mean Surrealistic pillow is super awesome but they perfected their sound on this one.

move forward in time and Primal Scream comes to mind when re-hearing this old classic..

Let's not move forward then. Btw....Research Flat Earth\No vacuum.

The solo interlude starts grunge and ends Sonic Youth, in 1967, eh. Mournful yet energetic song.

Ten people can't feel the rythim.

This song is all about swing

FIERCELY COOL !!!!!!

Understanding is a virtue hard to come by!

Go Go groove with Paul's folk wisdom...

Jorma the best guitarist ever!

dat fuzz

Ampeg Scrambler

El genio de jorma! / jorma such a genius

R.I.P. Paul ~~~

Dammmmnnnn, duuuuudes!!!!! This song's sooooooo freaking groovy! It kinda enters our soul deeply, wow, it kinda digs in our veins and reaches our hearts and souls and... Wowww this is so groovy! Jorma's a genius, dudes!!! In fact, all of them are... Whoaaaa the JA rulessss

niceeeeeeee

Mal conheço mais já considero a pakas s2

Aeeeee mais brasileiros de bom gosto que curtem JA ☺️✌️💚🍄🌻 Essa banda é a banda mais afudê de todos os tempos, junto com The Doors, Grateful Dead, Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull, Secos&Molhados e Os Mutantes 😍 Mas o Jefferson Airplane tem alguma coisa que o torna o mais especial pra mim

@frankw973-- sounds to me like a pick scrape with a lot of fuzz on it, pausing a couple of times on the way down for an expressive wiggle. Alternatively, maybe the sound of a kitchen sink drain emptying! (also fuzzed up to the max).

@Brian Middleton It's Jack Casady abusing the Versatone amp after he first discovered it. They have distortion capabilities like no other due to the internal tube biamp setup. No fuzz box here, just a small tube amp being throttled to within an inch of its life. The inventor brought it to Jack to try out at the studio, as Carol Kaye and other studio musicians had used it for its clean hifi tone, and when Jack did this to it, he told him "You just bought it, buddy."

+Edwin Hurwitz Great background story!

Does anybody have chords for this song?

+Brody Forrester Bm to E, then A, E, G, D, F# then Bm, D, G, C. Pretty easy.

Kaukonen's part is more difficult.

@Sheriff Lophophora ya think? ;<}

Love the JA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very good song

Please, don't give up so soon :-D

It's their loss matey.

@sirigi22 if you don't know Jorma, you don't know Jack!

@popmachine12 Rock isnt dead its just buried alive. Like it.Had this album years ago good hearing the sounds xlent guitar riffs and rhythms full package.

I am just going to pretend that I was at Woodstock with them in my past life

I wonder how you manage to listen to Yo Yo Honey Singh and Psychedelic rock all at the same time lol.

Why is marty balin always on vocals?

Jorma was a monster on the electric. The solo during the outro/fadeout kicks ass

68's rock

@popmachine12 i'm the same age and everyday i wish i had a band so the amazing music of the past can stay alive. thank you for doing what i've always wanted. how can i listen to your band??

@oxopig nixon is dead you dumbass

@MrWilliamSandoval take them!!!!!.....kick there asses!!!!!,,,, I did ....back in 1972,....I guess somethings dont change...... be a hippie.... flower in the left hand ..... fist in the right!!!!..... oreo ... Waterbury, ct... 1978... 203 503 1360

@MrWilliamSandoval i was 13 when i first heard this band. if you get made fun of for listening to this band, you're hanging out with the wrong kind of people. that's all i have to say about that. keep enjoying (eventually you'll find people with taste)! :)

I love this song. I'm 13, and I get made fun of for listening to Jefferson Airplane; but it still doesn't stop me from listening to them...

William Sandoval so, what's it like being 21?

impeach nixon.......impeach obama

IMPEACH TRUMP

fuck off moron trumpie zombie

@ivycompton Check Jack and Co. on "Somebody to Love" on Bless Its Pointed Little Head lp.

@excelsior544
I hate to be exclusionary, but honest to god, was there a better bassist in rock than Jack Casady, or a better combination of guitarist and bassist than Jorma and Jack? Pleasure without end.

Gary Morris Roger Waters, but Kaukonen is arguably the best guitar player ever to rival even David Gilmour.

@popmachine12 ill buy your records man! keep it alive, its what i live for. im a 15 year old girl.

@popmachine12 Dude, me too. What style are you guys going for? Lighter like the Airplane or more Cream?

@popmachine12 Rock on !

@popmachine12 You are wise way beyond your years!

Warning: Jack's gonna jump out at you like a booger from an Mr. R. James ghost tale. Jorma on vocals and machine gun guitar.

one of the best bassists around is Jorma-fuck this band are cool- I havent heard this for 20 years and love hearing it again.

Jorma didn't play bass... Jack did

there is stuff all diethylamide around this country and if so it is 30 to 40 a pop! :O Psylocybe is easier

yes, this is one song where paul and jorma and jack all just sound so perfect together. dont get me wrong they sound good on the other songs, but Paul usually doesnt have the same vibe as them.

@popmachine12 I'm fourteen, and I feel exactly the same way. Jefferson Airplane is my favorite band, and as a musician (whose voice has been compared rather generously to both Grace SLick and Signe Anderson), I hope that what I can bring to the table will start the revolution again. We really do need it.

Love it when everyone else in the band backed away and let Jorma, Jack et al. do their thing...Nice!!!

Killer LYRICS !!!

i never thought of it as acid rock , back in the day it was known as psychodelia,

true acid rock!

If you don`t know Jack you don`t know Jorma:)

Love Jorma and Jack and Hot Tuna.
