Today’s listening is ’Spitfire’, the 1976 album by Jefferson Starship.

This is an enjoyable album from Slick, Kantner, Balin and co.

Plenty of groovy, rockin’ tunes with their typical ‘multi-lead vocal’ approach.

The front cover of the album, which could be taken as a wholehearted endorsement of how cool it must be to smoke opium, has a female figure who looks alarmingly like Tori Amos to me!

The word is Great

Black Grape's debut album “It’s Great When You’re Straight…Yeah” 1995

was the next venture for pals and following their previous band . They updated their sound, interweaving heavier rhythms with dabs of Jamaican flavor and , giving it a cut-and-paste feel even when not using actual samples, but the music was just as jubilant. It’s ! It’s a party! It’s what I like to imagine might have become if they hadn’t fallen to the perils of . Speaking of…I’ve always taken the album title as a reference to Ryder’s on-and-off addictions, but I’m also pretty sure he was still using back then; maybe it was aspirational. But there would be plenty of time in the next millennium for dealing with such things.

1999? Shit, I wanna party like it's #1995.

A favourite bit of of mine and an entertaining record I might add. Grace Slick on is an underrated track. Marty Balin on also fantastic.
