Talk:Bark (Jefferson Airplane album)

Early Tracks

Does anyone know what tracks were in the process of being recorded with Marty before he left the band? This is my guess, but I need references. I think a couple of these tracks are mentioned in Got a Revolution, but I don't have my copy around:

• Bludgeon of the Bluecoat aka The Man (Covington)
• You Wear Your Dresses Too Short (Balin)
• Up or Down (Peter Kaukonen) -- Later released on Early Flight
• Emergency (Balin)
• Whatever the Old Man Does Is Always Right (Covington)

Also, according to the liner notes the following tracks were the ones worked on both before and after Marty quit (removing Marty's vocals?):

• War Movie
• Rock and Roll Island
• Thunk
• When the Earth Moves Again

The following were the tracks recorded only after Marty quit (replacement tracks?):

• Feel So Good
• Crazy Miranda

All the rest of the tracks were worked on before Marty quit but don't have Marty on them, although it is possible Marty quit just before the two Grace Slick tracks (Law Man and Never Argue with a German if You're Tired or European Song) were recorded. If anyone has good sources for this please add here. JoeD80 (talk) 01:52, 28 March 2008 (UTC)

From the interview referenced on the current page: Paul: "We're giving RCA another record, and that should finish them. Saucers and Mexico will be on it, probably live versions; Marty [Balin] has a couple of songs, Joey [Covington, drummer]'s got a song called Bludgeon the Bluecoats -- social protest."

Santana

So, do Carlos Santana and Michael Shrieve really make an appearance on this album? The credits are from the Jefferson Airplane Loves You box-set, but these credits are *NOT* on the original album. Also, Joey Covington registered the copyright in the US copyright office with Kaukonen, Casady, Covington, Santana, Shrieve all as writers, but the credits on the album are just Casady, Kaukonen, Covington. Santana appeared with credit on Papa John's album (Papa John Creach) a short time later, so I don't know why he would be un-credited here, unless he really wasn't playing on the track. The story as I understand it was this song came out of a jam involving Santana and Shrieve but that doesn't mean they are necessarily on the final track. What's the real story here?

well the sources lean towards Santana and Shrieve playing here, so I included the references and added them as authors and musicians. JoeD80 (talk) 22:26, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
