Paul Kantner & Grace Slick

Musical Group

Paul Kantner and Grace Slick are American rock musicians associated with the San Francisco psychedelic scene and known for collaborations including the 1971 album Sunfighter.

Sunfighter (1971), credited to Paul Kantner & Grace Slick, features contributions from Bay Area musicians including David Crosby, Graham Nash and Jerry Garcia, plus horns from Tower of Power. The album's themes include environmental concern and nostalgia; dedications on the record include the title track "Sunfighter" to Marty Balin and "China" to China Wing Kantner.

The available review treats Sunfighter (1971) as a carefully arranged, nostalgic psychedelic record with environmental themes. It highlights extensive Bay Area collaborations and a balance of disenchantment and love for the planet. The reviewer rates the album 4/5 and notes dedications on the record.

For:Fans of psychedelic rock and the 1960s–70s San Francisco music scene; listeners of Jefferson Airplane/Starship and classic rock aficionados.

 Disenchantment but also a sense of belonging to a planet too often mistreated are the themes that run through the 42 minutes of the record; in "Earth Mother" the love for Earth is starkly contrasted with the pain of her children "torn apart by coke and heroin", while there’s no room for imagination in the line "Goodbye San Francisco Dream" of the nostalgic "Million".
