title: Jefferson Starship
text: While Marty and Grace had come and gone over the years , in June 1984 , after the release of Nuclear Furniture , Kantner , the last remaining founding member of Jefferson Airplane , left the band due to disputes over the group 's artistic direction . `` I think we would be terrible failures trying to write pop songs all the time. ... The band became more mundane and not quite as challenging and not quite as much of a thing to be proud of '' , said Kantner . In October 1984 , Paul Kantner took legal action over money he claimed he was owed and to prevent the remaining members from continuing to use the name Jefferson Starship . The lawsuit was settled in March 1985 . Kantner received a cash settlement , the name Jefferson Starship became the property of Grace Slick ( 51 % ) and Bill Thompson ( 49 % ) , and all parties agreed to not use the name `` Jefferson '' going forward . The remaining members renamed themselves Starship , and continued to tour and record music . David Freiberg was dismissed from the band shortly after the lawsuit was settled . Pete Sears departed in 1987 . Grace Slick left Starship in early 1988 , going on to join the reformed Jefferson Airplane for an album and tour in 1989 . Craig Chaquico departed in 1990 . The band has been billed as `` Starship featuring Mickey Thomas '' since 1992 .
