Despite them having gone from the amazing and unpredictable Airplane to somewhat generic West Coast by this time, I still have a soft spot for them.

They didn't go from Airplane. Jefferson Starship was a different and new band from Airplane (forming two years after Airplane ended).

Considering the airplane and the Starship as one continuous band with evolving members and styles, they were quite remarkable here in there very high production value, record sales, radio airplay, a very professional band.

Wrong from the start. Airplane and Starship were NOT "one continuous band with evolving members and styles." That is spin. Jefferson Airplane was overwith--"dead" (Kantner's own words) by 1972. Solo albums were tried and didn't sell well, so Kantner and Slick formed a NEW band, Jefferson Starship, in 1974. It included some members who'd also been in the Airplane with them, but not others. Jefferson Starship was a different band, different era, different key band members and songwriters and a different legacy from Airplane.

Interesting to see them all cool with each other. Miss these days!

Perfect. Love Jefferson Starship ❤

great footage i could watch them do this every year they toured

Howdy folks. This is the coolest. I won backstage passes to see the JS at the CU Boulder Events Center, in fall 1982, which is where the backstage and concert footage for this video were filmed. This was the first time I met Kantner, Slick, Freiberg, Chacquico, Sears, et. al. I had forgotten that a film crew was there the night. Surfing around on KZread, I found a link to this very snowy, Nov. night at the CU Events Center. I remember it well. At the 12 minute mark, you can see me (with red hair and freshly signed CROWN OF CREATION album) and my friend Eric, from high school, talking to Kantner. I still have that LP and the backstage pass; the LP has been signed 1X by Slick, 1X by Balin, 1X by Jack, 1X by Papa John (yeah, I know), 3X by Jorma, and 3X by Kantner. Grace and Paul signed it for the first time that night. Everyone except Spencer Dryden has signed it. And, you never know what's gonna turn up on KZread!!! Thanks for posting this video. Cheers.....MC Malthus.

They were at their peak the early 1980s. Even if it was more commercial songs were great

I will say it again, back when the san francisco bay area had a great music scene. While the Jefferson Starship was a little szchopranic musically going from "miracles" "run away" "ride the tiger" to "jane" "stranger" "can't find love" they were a great band. The critics were never too kind to them which i believed inspired on modern times album "f..k you we do what we want" but I saw them live and they put on a great show and they seemed to be having fun doing it. Nuclear furniture was the beginning of the end. While it had a few good songs, they seemed to be running out of steam. But nonetheless I think they were still a good band especially as a straight forward rock band from freedom at point zero to winds of change. Miss those days. 🤘🏻✌🏼

Black Widow best metal song of the entire 1980s or ever. Far better than anything any metal band ever put out but it got zero radio play. It should have been re released in 1987-1988 and got massive radio play when metal ruled.

Black Widow was written by Craig Chaquico, the lead guitarist in the band (music and lyrics) with additional lyrics by Grace Slick.

Just think roughly ten years before Grace was going to slip the president a Mickey

The should have returned to a metal sound like Black Widow for their 1987 album.

Have seen about 50 Jefferson Starship shows and the solo's were always from Craig on lead guitar and Pete Sears on bass. When Paul died I wrote a tribute sentence using nine songs from Jefferson Airplane and Jefferson Starship. Here goes. It's No Secret, Today Paul Kantner is no longer Running Around This World, but his spirit is like a High Flyin Bird singing Let Me Fly to the Other Side Of This Life where I can wear the Crown of Creation and see The Light from the Windows of Heaven.

No. he only played rhythm guitar. In fact, when it came time to double solos like on 'Find Your Way Back' etc. Pete Sears would step out from the keyboards and play the parts. IMO, Paul didn't write or contribute to any of the Jefferson Airplane/Starship's best hit songs. He wrote or co-wrote only 10 songs, that you've likely never heard of. Not exactly the driving force of the band, but he was "there". His biggest contribution was being Grace Slick's boyfriend for a short time, and they had a child together. 🤷‍♂

Pity Jack & Yorma couldn't do an occasional guest spot instead of this Malsteem/Van Halen inspired guitar stuff. It's skillful, but not inspired or inspiring, imo
