JEFFERSON STARSHIP – Mother Of The Sun (2020)
Legends JEFFERSON STARSHIP are back with “Mother Of The Sun“, their first record in 12 years. While the band keep touring all that time, after the death of co-founder Paul Kantner in 2016 they decided to not record anymore.
However, Kantner’s family gave the band their blessing to continue on, and former lead vocalist / co-founder Grace Slick also agreed, and licensed the rights for them to retain the Jefferson Starship name. More than that, she co-wrote one song for this new album, and ex J. Starship Marty Balin co-wrote other. To complete the picture, original Jefferson Starship member Pete Sears plays bass on three tracks.
So this is a true JEFFERSON STARSHIP, and in top form, delivering a bunch of wonderful, melodic, classic rock songs wrapped by a crisp production.
