Have You Seen The Stars Tonite Or At Least The New Jefferson Starship Book By Craig Fenton


 

The author of the Jefferson Airplane book "Take Me To A Circus Tent" Craig Fenton is back with not one but two follow-ups! A book on the Jefferson Starship and a unique 2 CD set including a 70 minute phone interview with new singer Cathy Richardson.


New York, NY  August 09, 2008 - "Have You Seen The Stars Tonite" includes 179 photos, 527 pages, over 700 set lists from the Jefferson Starship's live appearances, a list of all the documented songs performed, the first appearance, any special versions, guest appearances, the dates of services of the band members throughout the years, a look at the singles and album releases, documentation of which tunes they played year by year, the Jefferson Airplane songs they performed year by year, and a listing of a good deal of the cover songs played. Once Again an original Jefferson Airplane member was kind enough to say something nice on the back cover. Signe Anderson “When it comes to the Jefferson Airplane and the Jefferson Starship, Craig Fenton is the source.”

"Have You Seen The Circus Tent Tonite" is a 2 CD set on Circus Tent Records 001. The first CD is a Data Disc and features the photos from "Have You Seen The Stars Tonite" in larger form, all the updates from the Jefferson Airplane book "Take Me To A Circus Tent", and 892 photos of various rock and roll musicians through the years.

There are even a couple of pictures from Frank Zappa on the Steve Allen Show in 1963. The second Disc is an audio phone interview of nearly 70 minutes (69:42) with new female lead singer Cathy Richardson. Details available at Mr. Fenton's website: http://www.takemetoacircustent.net

Jefferson Airplane Gets You There on Time & 'Take Me To A Circus Tent' Makes the 40th Anniversary Summer of Love Flight ... a Ride for the Ages!

Thursday February 8, 9:45 am ET

CRANBURY, N.J., Feb. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- "Craig Fenton knows so much about the Jefferson Airplane and family, I was asking him the questions," said Marty Balin, founding member of the Jefferson Airplane, commenting on Craig Fenton's new Jefferson Airplane book, "Take Me To A Circus Tent." As the plane heads full speed toward the 40th anniversary of the Summer of Love, "Take Me To A Circus Tent" has opened a portal for those to revisit the original Summer of Love, preceding and subsequent years.
 
Craig says he saw an opportunity to present the Jefferson Airplane in a new direction. The music is the star. The book contains 93 almost-never-in- print photos mostly furnished by Herb Greene (the photographer who shot the cover for the "Surrealistic Pillow" record) and Don Aters (the best friend of legendary promoter Chet Helms). The two rarest are from the early days. One image is pre-Jack Casady and Skip Spence; the other is signed by Paul Kantner as Paul Airplane. The result is a 543-page encyclopedia of information.

"Take Me To A Circus Tent" for the first time accurately describes 121 live Airplane performances (1965-1972), the complete 1989 reunion, and the final flight to the Rock Hall of Fame (1996). Aboard the plane is a detailed look at 60 unreleased songs, demos, and rehearsals, your captain presents 266 questions and answers regarding the Airplane and spin-off bands, and proffers the largest interview (not quotes) segment of an American rock and roll book the mind could recall with 32!
