Certified double platinum by RIAA in 1995, it is the best-selling album by any incarnation of Jefferson Airplane and its spin-off groups. The single "Miracles" was the highest-charting single any permutation of the band had until Starship's "We Built This City" a decade later, ultimately peaking at #3 on the Billboard singles chart; the album itself reached #1 four non-consecutive weeks during 1975 on the Billboard 200. As with several other albums from the epoch, stereo and quadraphonic mixes of Red Octopus were released concurrently. Following a guest appearance on the preceding Dragon Fly, Jefferson Airplane founder Marty Balin returned as a fully integrated member of the ensemble. Balin wrote or co-wrote five of the ten tracks on the album, including "Miracles."[3] The group attempted to create a commercialized sound which was a total contrast to their past works, paving the musical direction of their next two albums.[4] Track listing{{tracklist| headline = Side one | title1 = Fast Buck Freddie | lyrics1 = Grace Slick | music1 = Craig Chaquico | length1 = 3:28 | title2 = Miracles | lyrics2 = Marty Balin | music2 = Marty Balin | length2 = 6:52 | title3 = Git Fiddler | note3 = instrumental | music3 = Papa John Creach, Kevin Moore, John Parker | length3 = 3:08 | title4 = Ai Garimasũ (There Is Love) | lyrics4 = Grace Slick | music4 = Grace Slick | length4 = 4:15 | title5 = Sweeter than Honey | lyrics5 = Balin, Craig Chaquico | music5 = Craig Chaquico, Pete Sears | length5 = 3:20 }}{{tracklist | headline = Side two | title1 = Play on Love | lyrics1 = Grace Slick | music1 = Pete Sears | length1 = 3:44 | title2 = Tumblin' | lyrics2 = Marty Balin, Robert Hunter | music2 = David Freiberg | length2 = 3:27 | title3 = I Want to See Another World | lyrics3 = Paul Kantner, Grace Slick, Marty Balin | music3 = Paul Kantner | length3 = 4:34 | title4 = Sandalphon | note4 = instrumental | music4 = Pete Sears | length4 = 4:08 | title5 = There Will Be Love | lyrics5 = Paul Kantner, Marty Balin | music5 = Paul Kantner, Craig Chaquico | length5 = 5:04 }}{{tracklist | headline = 2005 CD bonus tracks | title11 = Miracles | note11 = single version | lyrics11 = Marty Balin | music11 = Marty Balin | length11 = 3:29 | title12 = Band Introduction | note12 = live, November 7, 1975 at Winterland | lyrics12 = | music12 = | length12 = 1:14 | title13 = Fast Buck Freddie | note13 = live, November 7, 1975 at Winterland | lyrics13 = Grace Slick | music13 = Craig Chaquico | length13 = 3:34 | title14 = There Will Be Love | note14 = live, November 7, 1975 at Winterland | lyrics14 = Paul Kantner, Marty Balin | music14 = Paul Kantner, Craig Chaquico | length14 = 4:57 | title15 = You're Driving Me Crazy | note15 = live, November 7, 1975 at Winterland | lyrics15 = Vic Smith | music15 = Vic Smith | length15 = 6:44 }} Personnel
