album by Paul Kantner and Grace Slick, released under the name Paul Kantner and Jefferson Starship, the first album to use the "Starship" name, although the personnel line-up was not the same as would appear on the first actual Jefferson Starship album. It was released in 1970 as RCA Victor LSP-4448. (Wikipedia)
c-45: essentially the line-up is the jefferson airplane, less marty balin, plus friends, working on a paul kantner project: the absence of balin was enough to mean "it isn't the airplane" to kantner and slick - as the absence of either of them was likewise enough, later (and the absence of all three, to mean "it isn't the jefferson (anything)" a lot later on still, as the jefferson starship morphed back and forth and eventually settled into "the starship").
- its being a "paul kantner project" (rather than a group project), was enough for the "jefferson starship" to later be used for all paul kantner projects as weren't collaborative projects with grace slick drawing upon the same pool of (ex-)jefferson airplanean musicians, as a recognisable band name that'd trigger recognition by the fans of the airplane, and of "blows against the empire", without risking giving them the false impression of their being group or band compositions: e.g. i think quite a few jefferson airplane and jefferson starship fans' noses'd've been out severely out of joint, if the "ballad of the chrome nun"'d been labeled as being by either of the bands. . .
Inside gatefold lists Jefferson Starship as: Paul Kantner, Grace Slick, Jerry Garcia, Bill Kreutzmann, Mickey Hart, Joey Covington, Jack Casady, David Casady, David Crosby, Graham Nash, David Freiberg, Harvey Brooks, Peter Kaukonen, and Phill Sawyer. Sounds like quite a group!
