Paul Kantner - Blows Against The Empire (CD) - CD

Details: With most of the members of Jefferson Airplane missing in action, Paul Kantner and Grace Slick holed up in a San Francisco studio in 1970 alongside a cast of West Coast rock 'n' roll legends like Jerry Garcia, David Crosby and Graham Nash to cut what became Kantner's finest solo work. Fueled by his lifelong obsession with science fiction, "Blows Against The Empire" is Kantner's rock space-opera: Young people hijack a starship and establish a brave new world in some distant galaxy, light-years away from the earthbound reality of Richard Nixon and the Vietnam War.
