Grace Slick's first solo album MANHOLE essentially marks the end of the Jefferson Airplane psychedelic era. Her collaborators here include both members of the Jefferson Airplane, as well as their new incarnation Jefferson Starship. This is a sprawling, ambitious (and sometimes quite self indulgent) collection of songs that seems to reach for the stars with its occasional orchestral accompaniment on the 15+ minute "Theme from The Movie Manhole" and "Epic #38". The bawdy & shamelessly crude "Better Lying Down" is a modern take on saucy 20s era blues. For me, the ambition of the production outstrips the actual quality of these song ideas. I believe this is the sort of record that would take a more dedicated Jefferson Airplane fan to appreciate.
