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
#BlackGrape was the next venture for pals #ShaunRyder and #Bez following their previous #Madchester band #HappyMondays. They updated their sound, interweaving heavier rhythms with dabs of Jamaican flavor and #HipHop, giving it a cut-and-paste feel even when not using actual samples, but the music was just as jubilant. It’s #psychedelic! It’s a party! It’s what I like to imagine #JeffersonStarship might have become if they hadn’t fallen to the perils of #70s #California. 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 #AlbumArt of mine and an entertaining record I might add. Grace Slick on #LoveTooGood is an underrated #JeffersonStarship track. Marty Balin on #Runaway also fantastic.
