Marty Balin

If only you believed in miracles, you dreamed some day you might sing half as well as Marty Balin.

---------------------------
Marty was the founder of Jefferson Airplane, which, of course, evolved into Jefferson Starship.

Immortalized in the movie "Gimme Shelter", Marty was the only star at the Rolling Stones' Altamont Rock Festival with the balls to try to stand up to the Hells Angels, who the Stones had foolishly hired to act as security for the event and who would kill an audience member before they were through. They knocked Balin right out, but at least he had the balls to try to do the right thing.
