"Pretty as You Feel" is one of my fave Airplane songs. Glad we got AL to play it once; maybe it'll show up in our next '72 set. More likely we'll hear "With Your Love" in '76.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

"Pretty as You Feel" is one of my fave Airplane songs. Glad we got AL to play it once;

In decided contrast to the current regime, AL went deeper into the catalog of big name groups.
In addition to PAYF, she played Lather, We Can Be Together, Crown of Creation, She Has Funny
Cars, Fast Buck Freddie, The Ballad of You & Me & Pooneil (which took BOS)... in retrospect, I
should have requested Eat Starch Mom -- I think she would have played it.
