Album Review

This compilation chronicles the history of Jefferson Airplane/Starship as seen on the VH1 Behind the Music series. This is the first CD to encapsulate the band as it morphed between its three phases with the only consistency being the vocals of Grace Slick. These 18 tracks start with 1967's summer of love anthems "Somebody to Love" and "White Rabbit," then move into the decadent '70s haze of "Miracles" and "With Your Love," and conclude with the '80s glossy pop/ballads "We Built This City," "Sara," and "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now." Fans of one particular incarnation of the band may find parts of this nauseating or outdated, depending on where they stand. For better or worse, the band constantly evolved throughout three decades, unlike other mega superstar groups that gained prominence at the same time.

Customer Reviews

one of my favorite albums!

If i had only one album 2 listen to for the rest of my life, it would be this! Jefferson Airplane/J Starship/Starship are awesome! Grace Slick has got the coolest female voice in the world, apart from Stevie Nicks and Ann Wilson. Buy this album!

Starship

It's a cool band they have great music

Evolved

These people challenged the changing of the times. Successfully. The sound they created adapting to the dynamics of our transitions is nothing short
of the genius of anticipating our times. Always be a stickler of my memories.

They epitomized the drug-taking hippie ethos as well...
