Red Octopus [Bonus Tracks] $8.98 Technically speaking, Red Octopus was the first album credited to Jefferson Starship, though practically the same lineup made Dragon Fly, credited to Grace Slick/Paul Kantner/Jefferson Starship. The difference, however, was crucial: Marty Balin was once again a fully integrated bandmember, writing or co-writing five of the ten tracks. And there can be little doubt that it was Balin's irresistible ballad "Miracles," the biggest hit single in the Jefferson Whatever catalog, that propelled Red Octopus to the top of the charts; the only Jefferson album to chart that high; and the best-selling album in their collective lives. This must have been sweet vindication for Balin, who founded Jefferson Airplane but then drifted away from the group as it veered away from his musical vision. Now, the collective was incorporating his taste without quite integrating it: "Miracles," with its strings and sax solo by non-bandmember Irv Cox, was hardly a characteristic Airplane/Starship track. But then, neither exactly was Papa John Creach's showcase, "Git Fiddler," or bassist Pete Sears' instrumental "Sandalphon," which sounded like something from an early Procol Harum album. Slick has three strong songs, among them the second single "Play on Love." Like Dragon Fly, Red Octopus reflected a multiplicity of musical tastes; there were ten credited songwriters, seven of whom were in the band. If there is any consistency in this material, it is in subject matter (love songs). The album is more ballad-heavy and melodic than the Airplane albums, which made it more accessible to the broader audience it reached, though "Sweeter Than Honey" is as tough a rocker as the band ever played. [The 2005 reissue of Red Octopus contains four bonus tracks including the single version of "Miracles" and songs recorded live at Winterland in 1975.] ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music GuidePerformers: David Freiberg - Arp, Bass, Guitar (Bass), Keyboards, Organ, Piano, Vocals; Pete Sears - Arp, Bass, Clavinet, Guitar (Bass), Keyboards, Organ, Piano, Piano (Electric), Vocals; John Barbata - Conga, Drums, Percussion, Vocals; Bobbye Hall - Conga, Percussion; Marty Balin - Vocals; Craig Chaquico - Guitar, Vocals; Irv Cox - Saxophone; |

Jefferson Starship - Spitfire $8.91 Originally released on Grunt.Personnel: Craig Chaquico (vocals, guitar); Grace Slick (vocals, piano); David Freiberg (vocals, keyboards); John Barbata (vocals, drums, congas, percussion); Marty Balin, Paul Kantner (vocals); Pete Sears (keyboards); Bobbye Hall (congas, percussion).Liner Note Author: Jeff Tamarkin.Illustrator: Shusei Nagoka.Spitfire was Jefferson Starship`s 1976 follow-up to the chart-topping Red Octopus (1975), and it found the band in a cooperative mood. All seven bandmembers earned writing credits on at least one of the nine songs, along with eight outsiders, and even drummer John Barbata got a lead vocal on the simple rock & roll song "Big City." But the three main power centers in the group remained in place. Singer/guitarist Paul Kantner continued to turn out his lengthy, complex songs with their exhortatory, vaguely political lyrics (the five-minute "Dance with the Dragon" and the seven-minute "Song to the Sun: Ozymandias/Don`t Let It Rain"). Singer Grace Slick contributed her own idiosyncratic compositions, simultaneously elliptical and passionately stated ("Hot Water" and "Switchblade"). And singer Marty Balin, whose romantic ballad "Miracles" had fueled the success of Red Octopus, wrote (or located) and sang more songs of love and pleasure ("Cruisin`," "St. Charles," "With Your Love," and "Love Lovely Love"). Weaving the three styles together were the fluid lead guitar work of Craig Chaquico and the alternating bass and keyboard playing of David Freiberg and Pete Sears. The result was an album that quickly scaled the charts, spending six consecutive weeks at number three in Billboard and going platinum. That it didn`t do better on the band`s considerable career momentum can be put down to the relatively disappointing nature of the material. There was no "Miracles" on the album, to begin with. Grunt Records released the more modest "With Your Love" as a single and got it into the Top 20, but the closest thing to "Miracles" was really "St. Charles," a song that certainly had some of the same elements but lacked the kind of direct emotional statement that made "Miracles" a classic. Similarly, "Dance with the Dragon" was no "Ride the Tiger" (from Dragon Fly [1974]), and while "Switchblade" was an unusually clear statement of romantic intent from Slick (whose "lyrical wordplay is...not easily accessible yet compelling and thought-provoking," as 2004 reissue annotator Jeff Tamarkin generously says of "Hot Water"), its provocative title made it an unlikely choice for an adult contemporary hit. Spitfire was more than the sum of its parts, boasting the sort of vocal interplay and instrumental virtuosity that had always been the hallmarks of Jefferson Airplane and Jefferson Starship.

Jefferson Starship - Across The Sea Of Suns $13.25 Jefferson Starship includes: Marty Balin (vocals, acoustic guitar, percussion); Diane Mangano (vocals); Slick Aguilar (electric guitar, background vocals); Paul Kanter (12-string guitar, background vocals);Chris Smith (piano, synthesizer); Prarie Prince (drums, percussion).Additional personnel: John Ferensic (organ).Recorded live at The IMAC, Huntington, New York; Bottom Line, New York, New York; Keswick Theatre, Glenside, Pennsylvania between February 19, 1999 and June 22, 2001. Includes liner notes by Grace Slick.All tracks have been digitally mastered using HDCD technology.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. Diana Mangano has been handling the female vocals formerly essayed by Grace Slick since 1994, while keyboardist Chris Smith was added later. 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. The bulk of this two-hour-plus double-CD live set, recorded mostly in clubs and theaters in June 2001, consists of material from the Jefferson Airplane albums Surrealistic Pillow and Volunteers and the Jefferson Starship albums Dragon Fly and Red Octopus. There are also obscure songs from the bands` catalogs, as well as numbers from Kantner and Balin`s solo efforts. The versions are looser than the studio originals, and Balin`s smooth tenor has acquired some grit as he approaches his 60th birthday. A sleeve sticker describes the album as the "first live release of many," but the Airplane/Starship never had quite the concert reputation (or repertoire) of their fellow San Franciscans the Grateful Dead, and this band is more of re-creation than the real thing, so it remains to be seen whether they can develop a similar audience for a series of live recordings, especially if those recordings are going to be new ones instead of vintage performances. This initial release reveals their approach to be competent and somewhat dated, not magical. ~ William Ruhlmann Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved. |
