    Isn't This The Time?
  

*by K***Y on Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2008*

Tree of Liberty is everything you've ever loved about Jefferson Airplane/Jefferson Starship (exorcise the memory of the emasculated Starship.) Driven by Paul Kantner's ringing 12 string Rickenbacker, the soaring harmonies, this collecton is a call to arms, to dream, to go to the edge and beyond. Jeffersonians past, present, future, and even retired, are mostly present and accounted for. (Only Jorma is among the missing, and his finger picking acoustic skills would've fit right in. Maybe next time?) Never has America needed to be reminded of righteous anger, and putting that anger into positive motion to change the world, more than it does now.It's an album of rebels and revolutionary anthems - across the times, across the oceans, across the continents. From Ireland, to Nicaragua, to union workers in the fields of California, to 13 upstart colonies declaring their independence from an oppressive monarchy, along the Underground Railroad, to utopian dreams of redemption, brotherhood, and peace, 19 soul rousing and blood pumping songs. Who would've thought the lustiest and loudest collection of songs would be made by (mostly) wooden instruments? Who would've thought the most passionate album to be released this year would come from Jefferson Starship?Lest you think this is a dreary collection of political polemic dirges, think again. This is an album to listen to with people, two big bottles of wine, and to sing along to. After a few listens you won't be able to help yourself. The songs choices range from Woody Guthrie, the Weavers, Phil Ochs, Dylan, Lennon, Marley, and Sandy Denny. And from the greatest of them all, Traditional.It kicks off with a rousing nod to "Volunteers" before it settles into the Weaver's classic "Wasn't That A Time." Cathy Richardson is a welcome addition to the crew. She has the vocal chops and power of, dare I say it? Grace Slick, but with a gritty undertone that can go any way she wants to take the songs. David Laflamme's violin soars above the acoustic guitars and martial drums."Follow The Drinking Gourd" is from the days of the Civil War, a road map for the Underground Railroad. Look up at the stars to the Big Dipper and imagine following it to freedom. The Weavers unearthed "Santy Anno." Paul can't resist reminding us that in the future it will be space ships, before he leads the crew into a lusty sea shanty, you can practically feel the waves rolling with the banjo and squeezebox.David Frieberg takes a solo turn on Dino Valenti's poignant "Cowboy On The Run," with beautiful pedal steel guitar by Barry Sless and piano by Chris Smith. David's wife, Linda Imerial, and Cathy Richardson provide sympathetic backup. It's pure Nashville.It would take all day to hit all the highlights. But I would be remiss not giving a shout out to longtime Jefferson collaborators Darby Gould on Richard Thompson's "Genesis Hall," Diana Mangano's full throttle support on "The Royal Canal" - beloved to Pogues' fans as "The Auld Triangle." As befitting a guy born on St. Patrick's Day, Paul O'Kantner gruffly sings the prison lament of Irish Rebel Brendan Behan, with a dirty ole man "heh heh" during the part about the women's prison, followed with a storming "Rising Of The Moon".The mash up of Bob Marley's "Redemption Song" with John Lennon's "Imagine" somehow works, heartfeltly delivered by Cathy Richardson. If there is one song to pick as a "single" - if things like that are still done - it's this one.Both "In A Crisis" and "On The Threshold of Fire" remind me of the Paul Kantner circa BATE/Sunfighter. "In A Crisis" refrain sticks with you long after the song has stopped playing - "In a crisis we cut away what we don't need anymore. In the good times we fight our way, fight our way back home." The whining guitar riff underneath, played with judicious economy by Slick Aguilar, underscores the haunting melody. "On The Threshold of Fire" could've fit right in the Hijack / Starship Suiteon BATE.Marty Balin contributes "Maybe For You" if anybody needed to reminded of his talent with a love song. I miss his sweet tenor. It's too bad he's not singing on the rest of the songs. Jack Casady makes an appearance on bass with his Armageddon-announcing rumble.Darby Gould's acapella version of Sandy Denny's "Quiet Joys of Brotherhood" sent shivers down my spine. Only one thing could top it, and that's Grace Slick singing "Surprise..." Some of Grace's best work was singing backup and harmony, as she is here. Too bad my CD says "Untitled" and there's no additional information as there are for the other songs.Surprise, indeed. This is one of the best releases of the year. If you love great songs, passionate singing and playing, need reminding that all evil needs to triumph is for good people to do nothing, then Tree of Liberty is for you. Lay your money down.

    Kantner Brings The Starship Home
  

*by N***E on Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2016*

This is a wonderful set, in spiritual the tradition of "Volunteers" and "Blows Against The Empire." Once Kantner wrested his band's name back, it's fitting that he chose to cover these great old Folk songs. Kantner, David Freiberg, Cathy Richardson and their other musical comrades shine throughout. The mashup of Imagine/Redemption gets my eleven-year-old daughter singing along, and the original composition "On The Threshold Of Fire" is classic Paul Kantner at his provocative and inspirational best, with lyrics like "I dare you to care. I dare you to risk your life. I dare you to believe all the things you learned in childhood that were right." If this doesn't stir up your old Hippie soul, you probably don't have one.

    Tree Of Liberty/Jefferson Starship
  

*by R***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2008*

I really love this release and Jefferson Starship is one of my all time favorites.This should be called Paul Kantner and friends as very little of the old band is on all the tracks,but appear thru out.This is some serious drinking music to get loose on.Some of the songs sound like basement tapes and there is not really much hard guitar rock and roll ...instead some fantastic 12 string acoustical work by Kantner.It is very,very good,but you would have to be a fan to appreciate to fine work they do.A stranger to this band probably would miss the great tunes and complain about it not being flashy or bold for a rock band,however the fifty plus crowd who grew up in the sixties will enjoy some of the old hippie music from the old days.The best songs are the new Kantner songs.I love this guy like a brother and hope he can get another CD before he retires.I have rated this as the best release of the century so far, by any band.Second place is the outrageously fantasticly great STONE PONIES W/LINDA RONSTADT(EVERGREEN) I just love that CD to pieces.Third place goes to LEVON HELM / DIRT FARMER.It may be really my number 1.This is all sort of Americana/country folk music that is so popular right now.
