One of the coolest most gone dudes in the history of American popular music; the late Fred Neil from Coconut Grove, Florida. This song was a staple of Jefferson Airplane live performances, and the version on Bless Its Pointed Little Head is a cosmic gem. The song has an unfortunate legacy, as it was the song being performed at Altamont when the Angels punched Marty Balin in the face. Link to Youtube video, warning NSFW due to language and nudity. They shoulda listened to Spencer Dryden who warned about a bad vibe, and I didn't see any pool tables.
