Fire - Jefferson Starship (1978)

"Fire" was released in the winter of 1978 on Jefferson Starship's fifth album, Earth. This is my 4th (and last!) equalizer vid for a track from this great album (I rate 2/3rd's of the songs at a 5!) after "Love Too Good" https://youtu.be/UcBtsmN6P6Y, "Count On Me" https://youtu.be/htfIPRXP8XY and "Runaway" https://youtu.be/1U78csHNq3c and also following my full-blown upgrade for my very favorite track from the album "Show Yourself" https://youtu.be/G0t2k4VK9JQ .

This is another great track from this great album, I used the same After Effects template that I'd used for the previous three videos, and it really would have been better if I'd started fresh...but that was too much like work for a video that I doubt will be very popular....but if it's for you? then enjoy! and thanks for watching!

The audio is sourced from FLAC version of the 1997 remaster of the album which Dr. Lossless tests rate as Average DR 13, Minimum DR 12 and Maximum DR 14...so this remaster was not brick-walled and the dynamic range is intact.

I'd been thinking of updating my old video for "Show Yourself" and then was recently reading a thread at the Hoffmann audio forums, where I was happy to read comments from fans who weren't ashamed to say they preferred Jefferson Starship over Jefferson Airplane....I've never been able to get into the Airplane's stuff, and I'm not a fan of the work that was produced when Jefferson Starship became just Starship.....but the middle period has some really great things and I love the Earth album in particular. Thanks for watching!

***A few words about the album copied from old video description: In a year filled with amazing albums (several of my all-time favorite albums came from 1978), Earth was one of the ones that I played the most. It remains by far my favorite thing the band ever did. I remember it being fairly savaged by the critics of the time and checking out a few today, I see that it's not fared any better since it's release and most reviews are still unfortunately pretty critical of it. From Allmusic.com..." has neither the melodies, hooks or style to make a second rewrite of Red Octopus tolerable. Earth has the form, but not the content, of Jefferson Starship's masterpiece -- it just sits there, lacking either hard rockers or sappy ballads. Arguably, it's the group's low point of the '70s." Wow....I couldn't disagree more! Loaded with great melodies, hooks and style....it ROCKS.....and it IS a masterpiece! Thanks Jefferson Starship for a great album!

[Lyrics]
Fire
Fire
You know there's a fire
You started a fire
Burnin' in my heart
My desire caught fire baby
From just one tiny spark
Now it's outta control
Spreadin' through my soul
It's been deliberately set
Gonna get even hotter yet
Burnin' me up
You started a fire
A burnin' in my heart
You started a fire
Burnin' in my heart and soul
Baby with your love
I burst into flames
When I called out your name
And suddenly I was engulfed
Now my whole life's on fire
Flames keep gettin' higher and higher
In the feat of the night
I get the fever
But it feels all right
Burnin me up
You started a fire
Burnin' in my heart
You started a fire
Burnin' in my heart
Fire
Fire
You know there's a fire
You started a fire baby
Burnin' in my heart
Burnin' in my soul
Burnin' red hot coal
Now I'm really hot
I just can't be stopped
Now it's your turn to burn
Got to learn to walk on fire
Burnin' me up
You started a fire
Burnin' in my heart
You started a fire
Burnin' in my heart
