Indeed, and the Grateful Dead!!! Dylan, Byrds, Beatles, Yardbirds, etc also deserve some credit as being among the very first to record psychedelic rock. > According to author Kevin McEneaney, the Grateful Dead "invented" acid rock in front of a crowd of concertgoers in San Jose, California on 4 December 1965, the date of the second Acid Test held by novelist Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters. < Britannica states that 1966 was the start of acid rock (probably in the mainstream, as in more public concerts & recordings). 1966 was the year of Jefferson Airplane's seminal release, "Jefferson Airplane Takes Off". Coincidentally, 1966 was The Beatles last live concert (the same year Lennon quipped they were "more popular than Jesus", unironically 🙃). First Warlocks show was May 1965. The Spring Grove Experiments started in 1963. Owsley started his bath lab in 1965. Beatles started recording Revolver in April 1966 (1st song Tomorrow Never Knows, which is obviously acid rock). Feb & March 1966 saw Yardbirds' "Shapes..." and the Byrds "Eight Miles High", which beat the Beatles by a month or two. Feb. '66 saw Marty Balin's "It's No Secret". Jan 1966 saw Byrds' Mr. Tambourine Man (almost/maybe psychedelic, some would say yes vs Dylan). Some day Dylan started it back in 1962, but his first album was bluesy folk. His 2nd ("Freewheelin'...") had cynical anxieties & humor about civil rights & nuclear war, which have thematic relevance to acid rock, without the jamming (a requisite). They all deserve credit, but I like "godfathers of Acid Rock" for Jefferson Airplane. 🥰
Not likely, since Dead & Co. retired, but Jorma is #9 on RS's greatest Dead sit-ins: >>> Jorma Kaukonen at University of Rochester, Rochester, New York - November 20th, 1970 (show on Archive.org) Serendipitously, the Jefferson Airplane were playing the War Memorial in Rochester, New York, the same 1970 evening that the Dead were doing a college late-nighter. So after his band’s gig ended, Airplane guitar pilot Jorma Kaukonen headed over to campus to join the Dead for a hot take on the Bobby Womack-via-Rolling Stones nugget “It’s All Over Now,” some smoking blues jams (both country and Chicago-style) and a rocking rendition of the old folk standard “Darling Corey.” Sketchy sound on the surviving bootlegs, but fiery playing. -WILL HERMES, Rolling Stone - MAY 20, 2015

Wonderful!
🎸🙏
Can these cats combine forces with the dead? Reminds me of jerry & bob rolled into one, but the Jefferson airplane vibe still unique to itself ❤
