Happy birthday to Marty Balin (Martyn Jelel Buchwald) born 1942.
One of the original members of Jefferson Airplane, Marty has one of the most unique voices in rock music and a prolific songwriter having been compared to Bob Dylan with some of the early songs he wrote for the Airplane.

Only the most influencial and ground breaking bands and performers are celebrated here on The Rock of Ages Radio Show with Lucas Campbell.
