Jefferson Airplane’s Paul Kantner Passes Away at 74: Concert Photography Tribute
Paul Kantner, co-founder, guitarist, singer and songwriter of Jefferson Airplane, passed away at age 74 yesterday. He was at the center of 60’s counterculture and psychedelic rock and roll.

Interestingly, another 60s icon Leonard Nimoy passed away the day before, and was on my mind as I watched that show. Nimoy’s last tweet seemed poignant then and even more now: “A life is like a garden. Perfect moments can be had, but not preserved, except in memory. LLAP.”
