Next album = "Jefferson Airplane" (1989)"2400 Fulton Street" is a compilation album of music from the San Francisco rock band
Jefferson Airplane , originally released in 1987. The title is taken from the street address of a [http://www.gotarevolution.com/fulton.htm house] the band maintained in the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco in the late 1960s.The CD release is titled "2400 Fulton Street --- The CD Collection", contains eleven tracks not included on other releases, and features the otherwise unavailable Levis radio commercials of 1968. At the time, Levi Strauss marketed a line of jeans that were bleached white by exposure to sea water. Termed "White Levi"s, they nevertheless came in several colors and were popular among surfers along the west coast [http://www.apparelsearch.com/definitions/clothing/Jeans_definition.htm] . The
psychedellic flavor of 'white' jeans being colored as well as the verbal connection between "White Levis" and "White Rabbit" (Jefferson Airplane's first big hit) is obvious. Levi Strauss & Co. commissioned two short radio spots, which aired nationally in the United States.Track listing
