Jefferson Starship: Greatest Video Hits
Having lit up the 1960s music scene with their own, highly popular brand of rock & roll, Jefferson Airplane regrouped and renamed themselves Jefferson Starship (and later, Starship) in the 1980s. Adding an addictive pop ingredient to their already potent brew paid off handsomely for the band, and opened their sound up to a whole new audience. To their surprise, Jefferson Starship landed two number one singles during this extremely productive time for the band, namely "We Built This City," and "Sara." GREATEST VIDEO HITS gathers a selection of their music videos from 1981-1987, paying tribute to their work from that era. As well as the aforementioned songs, promo's for "It's Not Over ('Til It's Over)," "Find Your Way Back," "Be My Lady," and many others are all included.

Kennedy Stadium de Filadelfia (Estados Unidos), con el motivo de recaudar fondos en beneficio de Etiopía y Somalia. Pocos meses antes, artistas principalmente británicos, publicaron la canción "Do They Know It's Christmas?" con los mismos fines, de igual forma los músicos estadounidenses colaboraron con la canción "We Are The World", para recaudar fondos.

1 P.M. (One Parallel Movie)
Self
Lighter and livelier than the films Jean-Luc Godard had made in France, his U.S. collaboration with Direct Cinema documentarian D. A. Pennebaker was meant to be One A.M., as in “one American movie”; but Godard quit the project and the U.S., where to his dismay he discovered that revolution wasn’t imminent, and Pennebaker edited Godard’s material, to which he and Richard Leacock even added a bit more, releasing the result as One P.M., as in “one parallel movie.” It’s a stunning mixture of cinéma-vérité, political theater, and interviews of key sixties figures.
