Mickey and Slick are truly talented singers. The 80s were definitely a time to remember. No Facebook. No twirking. No Twitter. No iPhones or iPads. No swearing. No people getting offended easily. No COVID and no shootings. It’s too bad that music like this isn’t made anymore. Good job Mick and Slick. 👍
I agree.
Except for the shootings?
That’s always been here.
@@creoleviking8433 But not in school mass shootings.
❤
Slick still rocking in her 80s. I always had a “thing” for her since Airplane. Great voice.
There was no swearing in the 1980s? Are you fuckin nuts? Even Jefferson Starship used the F word on their 1981 album. Twice.
Mickey Thomas has some SERIOUS pipes!!
I love the Marty Balin years, but Mickey is a pretty phenomenal singer. 🏁
As I have grown older and consider the truly great bands of the rock era-clearly Jefferson Airplane/Starship is one that deserves that honor. They have gone through many line-up changes but for decades remained relevant. The totality of their catalog and influence is immense.
Another gem from my childhood days. Damn, Mickey Thomas could wail. I miss the '80s.
What an amazing voice Mickey Thomas has!! He belts out those highly notes like it's nobody's business!!
I know , Mickey Thomas has been called " Rock n Roll's best kept secret " !!! So is Steve Perry for that matter !!! Mickey and Steve , two of the best voices in rock !!!
The wonderful thing about RUclips is you no longer have to wait for your favorite music video to play on MTV. I grew up without cable TV, so this is awesome!
I remember watching the music video show “Night Tracks” on WTBS starting in late 1983, and that got me through until I got MTV in early 1985. But there were so many obscure videos I thought I’d never see again, and I’m very thankful that now we can find almost every music video ever made on here!
There was Hit video usa every Saturday starting at 10 pm till 6 am,very similar to MTV, didn't have cable either so it was the next best thing
YES, so grateful for that. The first I got to see cable was when I came home for my first Christmas break from college.
Mickey Thomas was one Monster singer.
The lyrics are still meaningful even today!
Only , the real protestors should be CONSERVATIVE AMERICAN CITIZENS .
.WE Have HAD ENOUGH OF OUR CONSTITUTION BEING TWISTED FOR POLITICAL , SOCIAL , AND CULTURAL " TRENDS "
When America was united.
When labelling was considered a bad thing. Now there are 20 times more labels, and everyone has to be given one. Terrible.
@@JeffOnTheRoads Yup. The rise in identitarianism is dividing and killing us.
Well maybe not united. But certainly more frikken fun.
But it wasn't really, only superficially. We're fighting for hearts and if we don't recognize Jesus, honestly we'll never recognize one another. President Trump didn't create the divide he revealed it.
Craig Chaquico was still so young. Always loved his guitar playing.
He always looked like he was having so much fun whenever I see him play guitar.
And Craig is a HIGHLY successful smooth jazz musician, as well, in 2021.
Yeah and he won the Grammy in 1998 and 1999 for Jazz Guitarist of the year . . For the albums " Acoustic Highway " and "Acoustic Planet " playing a 12 string . Both are great albums .
MICKY WAS THE DEAL, LOVE HIS RANGE!
he still can belt it...amazing talent! one of THE best
CAPS LOCK BUTTON.. tard...
One of the best rock tenor singers. Period
He has one of the best voices in rock history
He was no Marty Balin.
I saw the band on the tour. Paul had left by then. Some fans down in front had "Mick & Slick '88" signs, which Grace acknowledged from the stage.
A song that unfortunately is just as valid today. Thanks Starship for being real with all the music. LOVE.
Dude can sing his butt off. About like Steve Perry with that high tenor. And when they sing "Jane", wow. Love that song, too.
Staying at a Orlando resort and heard this song poolside today and thought “that must be Mickey-grace and jefferson starship.”
Many people make fun of this Starship lineup and their music but there's no deny it's the BEST Starship lineup! So colorful and just really listen closely to the music!
This is Jefferson Starship, not Starship. There's a pretty big difference.
Correct! However, the music from this album and the key players are pretty much the same through the No Protection album...
Don Baldwin was a kick ass drummer,when he wasn't kickin the lead singers ass......
@@jdshemp oooooh
Never cared for other's opinions. I listen to what feeds my soul and that is all that matters to me.
Awesome band ❤🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊
Mickey Thomas man his voice is out of this universe!!!!
This guy is 71 now and can still hit every note
Good song
gracy and mick adjoin impeccably on this track. . . .and holy jumpin' jeezuz can that lad ever sing ! ! ! !
Best concert I ever seen .No substitute for music of the 80s
Grace is so wonderful. I love how she and Mickey sing together
It's so cool to see celebrities, from San Francisco, in this music video.
Willie Brown Jr., The Residents, Pat Paulson...
Timothy Leary & Bill Graham too. 😅
Kamala must be down low in the picture !
I had forgot how good this song was.
when songs had style and substance!
Mick's voice is awesome
Slick's voice is better
Not by a long shot! Mickey is the man!
@@flufferoftheapocalypse4162 Sorry but Mickey is much more talented. I like Grace Slick but he's the better singer.
Both are awesome and they complimented each other perfectly. No need to takes sides people.
The voice of "Fooled around and fell in love", by Elvin Bishop
an under-rated band
Donny Baldwin ---> Certified monster on a drum kit!!!!
What a great song!! damn these guys and grace knew how to make great music. and slogan pretty good too lol. Mick and slick lol.
Woodstock Rockers!
Love this era, top song!
Man what a classic! I still have this album! In cassette form of course:-)
Still a bad ass jam after 35 years!!!
Could we have Mick and Slick as our new candidates for 2020??...Pleaase!!!
Bill Graham and The Residents in the crowd.
Lots of cameos. Bill Graham and Timothy Leary!
@@susangould8206 G Gordon Liddy w/ Timothy Leary.
The drums/beat, they hit this out of the park...5 platinum stars.. Just listen.
This song is like an old lost friend! love it!
Jeez , 35 years ago , R. I. P Paul
I keep this record as a treasure
Gee, who could have guessed this was an 80's videos with all the permed hair?
starship ROCKS
I'm voting for this ticket in 2024. Yes indeed!
Now I know why I'm so weird. I grew up in the 80's watching videos like this.
Pretty sure you are just a weirdo and it has nothing to do with the timeframe you grew up in.
@@krakenwoodfloorservicemcma5975 Nope! It was the video.
Amen brother. Amen.
Great song. But I can't get passed those 80's hairstyles!
Worth watching for the hair alone -- especially Grace Slick's.
lol can't miss those big 80s bouffant hairdos...
Star ship!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Grace Slick looks like Boy George in this video. I love the 80s!
jamaral81 Craig looks like Eddie Van Halen
It is a boy.
Craig looks like Nigel Tufnel
I have to wonder if some music producer purposely picked those for the wardrobe. The idea being, people changing the channels are likely to stick around if they think they see somebody familiar.
Man, the hair!
great to see pat paulson at 3:55
I thought that was him ! I had never noticed him in it before .....i was like wait... what.....lol
What great vocals and song 👍
the more things change.the more they stay the same
Timothy Leary and G Gordon Liddy are both on the video at the same time, wow
Mickey Thomas for president!!!
Micky's absolute best!!!
This is a fabulous song from a fantastic band and there is tons of disclosure in this video, especially if you're keeping up with the lyrics.... the industry-- they're always layin' on the line for us to see and hear.
Who rems. rockin j. starship early 80s!
This is when Paul Kantner said "I've had enough of this BS".
For a SF Bay area native this has all the coolest cameos. Dr Gonzo!!!!!! If you never saw him, google him
OCTOBER SURPRISE
"LAYING IT ON THE FRONT LINE"
this is a great fucking rock song! it epitomizes Jefferson starships harder edged sound of the early 80s!!!!!
Mick & Slick would be a huge improvement over Mr. Magooo and The Empress VP we have now running the store.
I wanted that Carvin gear sooooo bad!
Jefferson starship and later starship were the best soft rock band of all times!!!
What a classic I never get tired of this hey bro I think your guitar is on fire
Starship is badd to the bone 😊
Willie Brown Jr. rocks! Mick and Slick in 2024! Really. They couldn't do any worse. Later!
Gotta thank an old flame for putting me on to the Starship back in the day
When I try to explain the history of Bay Area San Francisco politics to people that aren’t from here I show them this video.
Good music, vaudeville, cocaine and Willie Brown.
The chorus is basically just find your way back rehashed
Happy belated life day
This is the most 80’s video of all time.
This is about as 80's as it gets and that's a good thing
OMG, mayor Willie Brown!!!! awesome!
This was about exactly the time he was tagging Kamala Harris, which got her political career started. Fact.
Saw them in 1981 when Paul was still in the band. Great show. Really wish Grace would come out of retirement for a show or two or maybe even a tour.
3:28 KING of The Old School Bay Rest in heaven ❤️
Just good old rock n roll from a great band
Mick and Slick. That rhymed. Good concept on the music video.
What a friggin tune!!!!
No more.. Truer than 2024....Mr Dilly.. Approves this .. Video !!!👍🎸😎🤑
Power keeps you in your places 😮😮
HOLY SHIT, THE RESIDENTS.
haha, yes they are making a cameo appearance :P
Love Grace's hair! lol Even has a Sister of Perpetual Indulgence in the video!
Glad this is back. Great tune from my rebellious youth...
Ironic, is it not? Have y'all seen the news lately? Political campaigns haven't changed at all since the 80s or even before. This super cool Jefferson Starship song & video says it all. I therefore challenge all who read this to forward this (video) to every (all 23 of them) 2016 Presidential candidate's volunteers, canvassers, call centers, public relations workers, campaign managers, and of course, candidates themselves. Let's return power to the people, and TAKE BACK power from special interests groups, lobbyists & corruption!
great song from the 80s
That’s Willie Brown in the beginning of the video. Classic. LOL. What a great song.
The best is yet to come!!!!!
Greatest guitar solo of all time
Mick and Slick in 2020
LOL
Hell no
Even Paul Kantner wanted nothing to do with the Starship after this.
The Cabinet would probably be The Residents.
Yes!
Great Political Video...I used to crank this song on cassette.
Oh My Gosh -- Love the band, love the tune, and of course as a guitarist, love Craig's playing. Wayyy under rated. So: this video, Craig is having SO MUCH fun! Infectious. So much fun, what music is supposed to be all about! Craig-- years ago and now, YOU ROCK (now Jazz!).
love this song!
Summer 1984. Going on to the 10th grade. Great times. The Olympics were in July. The unfortunate mass shooting at the McDonald's in San Ysidro. Democratic National Convention in San Francisco. MTV being great then. The years went by too fast!
Mick and Slick 2024!
to me, I'll put Mikey Thomas in the the same category as Steve Perry and Lou Gramm as one the best rock singer of all time
So many songs at the time about the Cold War...
Kick ass song
miss paul
Derek Miller Jefferson starship still rocks in 2023 any one still fans😊
