What Are You Listening To?

[Music Head]

from my library (vinyl)



Jefferson Airplane, Jefferson Starship, Starship, that's the evolution. I think most agree we went from great, to
good, to bad. Only three albums released as Starship, but for me they are probably the weakest of the entire output
of the various incarnations. Actually this came out a little better than I expected, with one song making the
difference between a like and a don't like. That song is one of Grace's best vocal performances, on Nothing's Gonna
Stop Us Now, which went to #1 here, and a #12 for the album. Didn't know that song was in the film Mannequin, which
I don't remember ever seeing. Four tracks I don't care for. Interesting legal battle over how the bands name came
about. All had to do with Paul Kantner leaving the band when they were Jefferson Starship. Claimed the name as his,
forcing the band to continue as just Starship, with Grace Slick retaining that word as hers. Ironic that she left
the band after this album. Isn't the music industry fun?
