David Freiberg (born August 24, 1938) is an American musician. He has contributed vocals, keyboards, bass guitar, guitar, viola and percussion to Quicksilver Messenger Service, Jefferson Airplane and Jefferson Starship.〔Fenton, Craig. ''Have You Seen the Stars Tonite: The Jefferson Starship Flight Manual 1974-1978 & J.S. The Next Generation 1992-2007'' (2008) (ISBN 978-1438245348)〕 ==Career== Freiberg began his career as a coffee house folk musician.〔 For a while he shared a house in Venice, California, with other future folk-rockers David Crosby and Paul Kantner.〔Zimmer, Dave & Diltz, Henry. ''Crosby, Stills & Nash: The Biography'' p. 23 (2008)(ISBN 978-0306816154)〕 In the mid-1960s, Freiberg founded Quicksilver Messenger Service with John Cipollina.〔("...which he formed with guitarist Gary Duncan and bassist David Freiberg in 1965, he continued to perform.")〕 In 1972 Freiberg joined Jefferson Airplane for the tour that promoted their final studio LP, ''Long John Silver'' and appeared on their final live album ''Thirty Seconds Over Winterland''. The remnants of the band eventually evolved into Jefferson Starship, and Freiberg remained with this group until 1984 when he quit the group following the departure of Paul Kantner.〔("Freiberg joined the last Jefferson Airplane tour in 1972 and became an original member of Jefferson Starship in 1974.")〕 After a two decade hiatus, Freiberg rejoined Kantner in Jefferson Starship for their 2005 tour,〔 which was billed as "The Jefferson Family Galactic Reunion",〔("rejoining, actually, after a two-decade hiatus - is David Freiberg, who put in a decade with the band...")〕 and as of 2010 has officially rejoined the group and appears on the 2008 release ''Jefferson's Tree of Liberty'' which is the first Jefferson Starship release to feature Freiberg since 1984's ''Nuclear Furniture''. Freiberg is married to the singer Linda Imperial and resides in Marin County, California where he has built a recording studio,〔("... Marin's most unrecognized rock star. ... Now a youthful-looking 69 ....He's been married for 17 years to singer Linda Imperial")〕 and is a practicing Soka Gakkai Buddhist. Orpheus creator Bruce Arnold has been quoted as saying "He has developed a wonderful way of recording my acoustic guitar and has a $100,000 voice mike that will make anyone sound good." Once described as "the nicest guy in the San Francisco music scene," Freiberg holds the singular distinction of having been associated with more of the original San Francisco bands than any individual, boasting membership in Quicksilver Messenger Service (1966-1970), Jefferson Airplane (albeit only for a few months in 1972), and Jefferson Starship (1974-1984), and having equally strong connections to the Grateful Dead, by playing on solo albums by Robert Hunter and Mickey Hart, and at one point playing on their intramural baseball team. Freiberg was the only member of Quicksilver Messenger Service to participate in the majority of the Planet Earth Rock and Roll Orchestra records (a series of solo albums by Paul Kantner, Grace Slick, David Crosby and others). He also briefly provided uncredited accompaniment for the groundbreaking female San Francisco rock band the Ace of Cups. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「David Freiberg」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
