Criag Chaquico Craig Chaquico - Much of the same can be said of Chaquico's musical career; He has engaged and inspired two generations of pop music fans as the lead guitarist and most prolific principle song writer for Jefferson Starship/Starship and, with 20 Gold records combined between the Jefferson Airplane, Jefferson Starship, and Starship, he was instrumental in making that combination one of the most successful bands in history. According to the RIAA this prestigious position is shared only with Presley, Streisand, The Rolling Stones, Neil Diamond, The Beatles, Sinatra, Elton John, & Dylan. Chaquico left the fast-paced pop world and reinvented himself as an award winning solo contemporary instrumental artist, songwriter, producer, and band leader again at the top of the national charts in a fourth decade and a new millennium. Turning Point - When the combustible four-man force of musical nature known as Turning Point took over the Phoenix club scene in the mid-90s, the desert city's nights truly became as steamy as its days. Establishing itself before packed houses at hotspots like The Famous Door and Beeloes, and later becoming regional sensations playing some 200 dates a year, the band grew to embody the freewheeling creative spirit of indie music. Drawing on each member's musical and cultural background, Turning Point forged an eclectic sound that mixed progressive jazz with rock, R&B and blues, with touches of Greek music and--paying homage to their home in the Southwest--Latin jazz.
