Fly Jefferson Airplane ... gets you there on time...

[Guest guest]

Hi Bruce,

 

It's a great album, isn't it? Do you know about the Planet Earth Rock

and Roll Orchestra album that's a sequel? (obscure, but has its moments

too.) I used to do a radio show from midnight to 3am (or later if my

partner Jeff and I were in the mood.) We called it Max's

Psychedelecatesson for awhile, and then changed the name to Blows

Against the Empire.

 

The Starship lineup was quite different from the PERRO, which was most

of the San Francisco musical community. I think David Crosby's solo

album If Only I Could Remember My Name (another classic) was basically

the same bunch of artists. They had the goal for awhile of being a

community back up band for solo efforts. (Blows was really a Paul

Kantner solo album with them pitching in)

 

Love, Mark

Yes, and compared to it the

subsequent Starship-branded

stuff is tripe.

The name sounds familiar, but

I can't say that I remember

hearing the album.

Yup, very similar roster.

Yes, that was my impression

too -- the whole trippy SF

anarchist thing is definitely

Kantner all the way.

P.S. I still owe you a

cassette -- even if you've

forgotten, I haven't! :-)
