Jefferson Airplane's "Greasy Heart"

Yester-day I listened to The Worst of Jefferson Airplane, and I noticed a small thing about "Greasy Heart" (from Crown of Creation), which is a bonus track, although it's inserted into the middle to fit the roughly chronological track listing.

The "falls" in the line "Don't change before the empire falls" has a descending melisma (I'm not sure what specific notes are sung, but the phrase starts on an A and descends to a D), which is a musical representation of the empire falling.

Jefferson Airplane's "The House at Pooneil Corners"

I just listened to Jefferson Airplane's Crown of Creation.  I'm fairly certain that this is only the second time I've listened to it.  The first time I listened to it, I noted the similarities in the opening feedback of "The House at Pooneil Corners" and the opening track of After Bathing at Baxter's - "The Ballad of You and Me and Pooneil."

I said then that it was the same feedback, but listening to the opening of the two songs back-to-back, it becomes evident that it's not exactly the same.  However, it's still very similar.  It's sort of amazing to me how they could replicate the feedback that well.

Back when I first listened to the album, I said that "The liner notes mention that the songs are related, which is obvious from the titles, but I think it’s neat how that’s reflected in feedback rather than any similarities in lyrics or music.  (Though, there may be those connexions too.  I’ve listened to it only once, and I wasn’t paying that much attention to it.)"  Listening to it this time, I did notice a similarity in the lyrics.  The line "And you know I'm still gonna need you around" appears in "The House at Pooneil Corners," which recalls the "you know I need you around" from "The Ballad of You and Me and Pooneil."

"The House at Pooneil Corners" also mentions a rhinoceros, which I feel may be connected in some way to the armadillo in "The Ballad of You and Me and Pooneil."
