New Live DVD From Jefferson Airplane's Marty Balin

(MVD) Rock & Roll hall of famer Marty Balin, formerly of The Jefferson Airplane and The Jefferson Starship, is one of the key personalities of the San Francisco sound that also launched The Grateful Dead, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Steve Miller Band and Janis Joplin.

This DVD, the first solo effort from Balin, was recorded on June 14, 2008 at the beautiful Hatch Shell in Boston. It features the tracks "Volunteers", "3/5ths of a Mile In Ten Seconds", "White Rabbit", "Somebody To Love" (with Didi Stewart on vocals for those Grace Slick classics), a version of Marty Balin singing "Somebody To Love" - the first time ever on a commercial release, "Today", "Summer Of Love" and his Jefferson Starship hits "Miracles", "Count On Me", "Runaway" as well as his 1980 solo hit "Hearts" and a cover of Bruce Cockburn's "Rocket Launcher".

It's the ultimate fan package featuring interview footage with original Jefferson Airplane lead singer Signe Anderson as well as the two authorities on all things Airplane/Starship, rock journalists Jeff Tamarkin and Craig Fenton.
