JEFFERSON STARSHIP

Genre : Melodic Rock
Country : USA
Description : For the sake of this database we do not include JS 3 "live" albums and a best of "Gold".
JS were born from Jefferson Airplane a band who's roots were in the sixties psychedelic era.
Since this is an Aor database, and you may be new to this band, start with "Freedom at Point Zero", as earlier output, before the introduction of Mickey Thomas, still had whiff of incense.
This is a cracking album which spawned classic radio hit "Jane". Theres enough in this and the following albums to keep aor and pomp lovers happy, but saw JS most recent release "Windows of Heaven", heading back to their origins.
In between "Nuclear Furniture" and "Windows", due to legal wranglings, they shortened their name to "Starship", which also incorporated an even more radio friendly and poppier style.
Details can be found at the link above.
Whilst serving with JS, Mickey Thomas released an excellent solo album "Alive Alone". In 2004 he released omne album with aor all star project Over The Edge

More trivia: JS are believed to have been involved, had tracks on the soundtrack to 1978 movie "Skateboard". You know the one...with teenage skateboarding heart throb Leif Garrett?!
If anyone has any info on this please...?
