The chord progressions sound almost exactly like "living for the city" by Stevie Wonder to me.

Listening to the 1990 reissue of the album "Surrealistic Pillow" according to Jorma the name came for a comment by Jerry Garcia" about the music being "like a surrealistic pillow". Garcia on one reissue was listed as spiritual advisor (LSD Supplier is my guess). Great Marty Balin written song. Garcia is credited with guitar on this track. Garcia was around so much I feel because he saw a band with amazing potential, and he was doing Grace.

this song is just about smokin', cookin', rockin' live SF rock and roll. a wild ride. a wild band. if you ever experienced them live back in the day you'd know. it didn't matter to a lot of us what someone thought it "was about". it was the total giving up yourself to the dance/the moment.

Song is about a television set not an M-16. The song was recorded in 1967. The M-16 was introduced to us (Marines) in Vietnam in mid 1967 but I'm prety sure Marty Balin didn't know much about military weaponry. He did, however, make some pretty good songs.

Correction: this live cut of "Plastic Fantastic Lover" is from their live album "Bless It's Pointed Little Head". Good stuff

... One of those very special group musical artists who were fully as great "live" as on vinyl ; SP , CoC , Vol , and BIPLH are inclusive of only a handful of LPs that are personally considered complete and possessed of beautiful scope in every possible way .
