Jefferson Airplane‘s sixth album Volunteers was released in 1969, a mere two years after their monumental psychedelic hippie rock album Surrealistic Pillow.

Volunteers is a politically charged album, mainly dealing with the injustice of the Vietnam war. Besides its lyrical content causing controversy, the album was ahead of its time on a technological level as well. At the time, Volunteers was one of the first albums to be recorded on a state-of-the-art sixteen track tape recorder, a picture of which can be seen on the backside of the album sleeve.

Musical collaborators include Stephen Stills and David Crosby. Volunteers is a crucial Jefferson record that ranks among the top albums of this seminal San Francisco psychedelic rock group.

Volunteers is available on audiophile black vinyl, packaged in a gatefold sleeve.
