...outer layers and gradually expand-perhaps to 100 times its present size-turning into a giant red globe that will fill most of the sky when seen from earth. Unfortunately, man will not be around to see this spectacular view. The expanding sun will boil away the oceans, melt rock and heat the earth's surface to 4,000 degrees F. It will leave man's dwelling place a lifeless inferno...
...Airplane may be coming down to earth. Recorded live for the first time, they change head music to body music as they repeat some old songs (Somebody to Lore, Plastic Fantastic Lover). Even so, acid rock is still the foundation of the Airplane, and the eleven-minute Bear Melt is a darkly mysterious throwback to their old surrealistic cerebrations...
