Jefferson Starship

Formed from Jefferson Airplane members in 1974. Key figures associated with the band include Paul Kantner, Mickey Thomas and Craig Chaquico. The album Freedom at Point Zero (reviewed here) features the single "Jane" and marks a shift toward melodic pop-rock numbers alongside Kantner's more declarative compositions.

The available review (Freedom at Point Zero) describes the album as split between Kantner-led tracks in a Jefferson Airplane style and more melodic, pop-rock numbers led by Mickey Thomas. "Jane" is highlighted as a standout single. Overall appraisal is mixed but leans positive, with a 4-star rating noted.
