Surrealistic Pillow is the second album by Jefferson Airplane, released in February 1967 as RCA Victor LSP-3766 (stereo) & LPM-3766 (mono). It is the first album by the band with vocalist Grace Slick and drummer Spencer Dryden. The album peaked at number 3 on the Billboard album chart, and has been certified a gold album by the RIAA.
Original drummer Alexander 'Skip' Spence had left the band in mid-1966, replaced by Los Angeles jazz drummer Spencer Dryden, a nephew of Charlie Chaplin. New lead vocalist Slick, formerly with another San Francisco rock band the Great Society, joined the Airplane in the fall of 1966. Slick and Dryden in place on this album and its attendant singles completed the best-known line-up of the group, which would remain stable until Dryden's departure in early 1970.
The album considered to be one of the quintessential works of the early psychedelic music and counterculture eras. It introduced the band's immortal hit songs "Somebody To Love" and "White Rabbit" and Jorma Kaukonen's masterpiece on solo acoustic guitar, "Embryonic Journey".
Surrealistic Pillow was the first blockbuster psychedelic album by a band from San Francisco, announcing to the world the active bohemian scene that had developed there, extending and changing through the 1960s into the Haight-Ashbury counterculture. Subsequent exposure generated by the Airplane and others wrought great changes to that counterculture, and by 1968 the ensuing national media attention had precipitated a very different San Francisco scene than had existed in 1966.
In 2003, the album was ranked number 146 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time".
Track 2 "Somebody To Love" was released by Grace Slick's previous band The Great Society.
