Alive Alone is Mickey Thomas's 1981 album. After joining Jefferson Starship, Thomas was still under contract to record a second solo album.[1] Alive Alone was released shortly after the Jefferson Starship album Modern Times, and Grace Slick's album Welcome to the Wrecking Ball!, but the Thomas album did not enter the Billboard chart.
