    Thanks to the starship and all the bands that made our days and our nights!
    I thank you all for your time and your talent and that your music will live on!
    Please share this music with the younger generations so that they may hear what music should sound like!

About 40-41 years ago now. I forgot that David Freiburg and Pete Sears were on this, too, which really helped me handle the high vocals from a man.

He had all kinds of excuses. Then I learn perry's technique. He changed his tune pretty quick when I'd blow past his B for another octave plus breaking his eardrums.

      Not sure why it wasn't a big hit. It reached #29 on the Billboard Hot 100. My theory about why classic rock stations won't play this is that the later pop songs performed by Starship after Paul Kantner left tarnished the band's image and made them damaged goods as far as the classic rock community was concerned.

      Beyond amazing.. Especially the harmonious riffs of both lead & rhythm joining together to complete run. I have always enjoyed the 1 note ringing" kicking tail" .. Echoing out to fade that the red mockingbird Marty is nailing out in precision.. Gotta Love It.... Brad Whitford of Aerosmith carries a ringing note out for about 30 seconds in Season's of Wither.. Long Live Rock N Roll..
