It's an awful, macabre coincidence and we're sad to learn today that Signe Toly Anderson, the original singer of Jefferson Airplane has died on the same date as Paul Kantner, January 28th 2016. Like Kantner, she was 74 too.
Anderson was the female vocalist on Jefferson Airplane's debut 1965 LP, Jefferson Airplane Takes Off, but she left the band a year later to take care of her first born. She was replaced by the great Grace Slick and the rest is classic rock history.
Make sure to wear some flowers in your hair and watch below Jefferson Airplane circa 1966, with Signe Toly Anderson still in the band, performing It's No Secret live at the Fillmore Auditorium.
