Paul Kantner (Jefferson Starship)

Blows Against The Empire:(1970)


OK, so it would seem that this album is out of alphabetical order, but I have my reasons. You see, I would forget I had this album if I didn't keep it next to Jefferson Airplane. For years I kept this album simply for the album art, very psychedelic era. But, as I listen to it now, there's some trippy stuff to recommend it, mostly on side two. Check out Hijack and Have You Seen The Stars Tonite (featuring Crosby and Nash). Now, this isn't the lineup that would ultimately be Jefferson Starship, but it is the first time the name was used. I was also interested to learn that this was the first album to win a Hugo Award.
