Jefferson Airplane stopped touring in November 1970 as Grace Slick and Paul Kantner were about to have a child. China Kantner was born on January 25, 1971. During Slick's convalescence, "Pretty as You Feel" (culled from a longer jam with members of Santana) was recorded in January 1971.
The fiddle was played by Papa John Creach, an American blues violinist, who has also played "classical, jazz, be-bop, R&B, pop and acid rock" music. Early in his career, he performed as a journeyman musician with such luminaries as Louis Armstrong, Fats Waller, Stuff Smith, Charlie Christian, Big Joe Turner, T-Bone Walker, Nat King Cole and Roy Milton. Following his rediscovery by drummer Joey Covington in 1967, he fronted a variety of bands (including Zulu and Midnight Sun) in addition to playing with Jefferson Airplane, Hot Tuna, Jefferson Starship, Jefferson Starship - The Next Generation, the San Francisco All-Stars (1979–1984), The Dinosaurs (1982–1989) and Steve Taylor. Creach recorded a number of solo albums and guested at several Grateful Dead and Charlie Daniels Band concerts.

Are you saving all these new ones?
At least I think this is a new one - as were a number of other submissions. I didn't actually memorize 'em all!
LOL By the way, there's a new post on the site and you may find it interesting. I've forced the URLs to use encryption. It's a good step and adds no overhead to the site, as well as maybe making the site more responsive for some use cases.
This particular one is on list 6. Just search on the folder the seed bank is in on your device. I try to make sure I tag the emails to you as either update or new and don't send any email on unedited, existing ones. I'm trying to limit posting much of any already existing (in seed bank) as to preserve them for the site.

As for the encryption, good show.
