	Jefferson Starship
		Jefferson Starship was among the most successful arena rock bands of the 1970s and early '80s, an even greater commercial entity than its predecessor, Jefferson Airplane, the band out of which it evolved.
		Credited to "Grace Slick/Paul Kantner/Jefferson Starship," Dragon Fly was the transitional album between the various shifting aggregations Slick and Kantner had been recording with as Jefferson Airplane dissolved in the early 1970s and the new Jefferson Starship (which essentially was the Airplane with a new guitarist and bassist - Craig Chaquico and Pete Sears).
		Freedom at Point Zero is not a great Jefferson Starship album; the wonder is that it is as good as it is. Since the band's previous album, the Top Ten, million-selling Earth, the group had lost its two lead singers, Grace Slick and Marty Balin, and they had been replaced by Mickey Thomas.

	The Jefferson Airplane
		My impression so far is that the Starship's utter insincerity renders their commercial triumphs irrelevant, whereas Hot Tuna's art-for-art's-sake approach to the blues makes up for their lack of vocal talent and tendency to obsess with oldies - much more so than the Starship, Hot Tuna carried on the Airplane's true spirit.
		Instead, the "Starship" refers to the record's unifying escape-to-the-stars theme, and the band is the Kantner-Crosby-Garcia-etc. "Planet Earth Rock & Roll Orchestra," here also including Graham Nash; Dave Freiberg on bass; and Dead drummers Mickey Hart and Bill Kreutzmann.
		This was the Starship's greatest moment (I suppose): they broke the Top Ten for the first (and last) time since Earth, and put across a monster single with lyrics courtesy of Bernie Taupin ("We Built This City") - their first ever to top the charts.

	Concert Review: Jefferson Starship
		That evening, Jefferson Starship played a 90-minute set to a fanatic, adulating audience that hung on every word and movement.
		The band was enthusiastic and definitely demonstrated that, despite a graceless moment or two, a rock group of the 1960s can keep a '90s audience mesmerized.
		Jefferson Starship began their set with Kantner's 1968 anthem, "Crown of Creation." From there, the group played new material, Jefferson Starship's major hit songs from the 1970s ("Count on Me" and "Miracles"), some songs from Marty Balin's solo career, and a fine selection of tunes from the old days of the Jefferson Airplane.

		Before they built this city on rock 'n' roll but after their encounters with hookah smoking caterpillars, there was Jefferson Starship.
		Forming in the early '70s and featuring most of Jefferson Airplane plus two additional members, Jefferson Starship aimed for the commercial rock crowd and hit the target dead-on.
		Achieving more financial and chart success in the '70s than they did during their more critically acclaimed, influential run in the '60s, Jefferson Starship rode through the charts on the strength of Marty Balin's overly sensitive, melodramatic ballads, "Caroline" and "Miracles," as well as Grace Slick's alcohol-infused antics.

		Since Paul Kantner reorganized Jefferson Starship in 1991 following the demise of Starship, this is the most ambitious recording the band has undertaken.
		The unit, also featuring Kantner's long-term partner, Marty Balin, with whom he formed Jefferson Airplane in 1965, is a seasoned group also boasting guitarist Slick Aguilar, who has been with the principals since their 1985 manifestation as the KBC Band, and drummer Prairie Prince, who has been onboard since 1991.
		As demonstrated here, the band is a Jefferson Airplane/Jefferson Starship repertory group who ranges around the musical history of the groups Kantner and Balin led in the 1960s and '70s.

		A spark, however, does not necessarily mean a lift-off -- it's safer to view this album as a proud exit than the first sign of a major resurgence.
		The finest effort from Slick, Kantner, Freiberg, Creach, Balm and company in a long time, with several superb rock cuts in the best tradition of the Jefferson Airplane and some equally well done ballads.
		Slick has not sounded as powerful on her vocals in a long while, the harmonies will bring back memories of the 1960's and Papa John Creach's violin contributes substantially to each cut without intruding.

		Having lit up the 1960s music scene with their own, highly popular brand of rock & roll, Jefferson Airplane regrouped and renamed themselves Jefferson Starship (and later, Starship) in the 1980s.
		Adding an addictive pop ingredient to their already potent brew paid off handsomely for the band, and opened their sound up to a whole new audience.
		To their surprise, Jefferson Starship landed two number one singles during this extremely productive time for the band, namely "We Built This City," and "Sara." GREATEST VIDEO HITS gathers a selection of their music videos from 1981-1987, paying tribute to their work from that era.

		Though Airplane/Starship may be the best example of selling one’s past to pay one’s bills, the worst thing about the Jefferson debacle is that most of the core members bolted way before they recorded the Mannequin jams.
		Celebrating the 40th anniversary of Jefferson Airplane, Balin and Kantner are back together playing staples “Somebody To Love,” “White Rabbit” and “Volunteers.” More importantly, the two have dusted off their original psychedelic light show.
