One of my absolute favorite musicians of all time, Marty Balin.
Marty Balin of the Jefferson Airplane/Jefferson Starship, and I outside of The Grammy Museum on Tuesday November 17, 2015. I was so happy to have finally met this man that I have admired since first hearing the song “Miracles” back in 1975.
WOW, happy, happy day indeed!

I have always enjoyed the entire “Red Octopus” album, especially the song “Miracles”.
