Things you learn playing these quizzes, like that “Meat Loaf” was 2 words …
No NSYNC?
Starship definitely had at least 2 million in certs as Starship, even if you do lump Jefferson Airplane, Jefferson Starship and Starship together as the same band.
They’re not. Paul Kantner has nothing to do with either Jefferson Airplane or Starship, and Kantner, not Grace Slick, was the leader of Jefferson Starship, so the three entities should be counted separately for the purposes of this quiz.
In fact, Slick was only the leader of Jefferson Airplane. Mickey Thomas lead Starship.
Cancel that. Kantner was part of Jefferson Airplane, joining the band a few months before they became Jefferson Starship, and Slick was co-leader along with Thomas in Starship.
I guess I’m the only one who remembers Us3. Too bad, they were pretty good.
