Damn, she is good! No one will every top Grace Slick, but she does a damned good job.

I've got to hand it to this young lady. I'm a Jefferson Airplane/Jefferson Starship (1974-1978) guy, who remains fascinated with music from those eras. But this woman can really sing. Wow. ..also, great to see Paul (RIP) and David. Both great musicians.

[@bluzman2243]

What a fabulous performance of a classic Grace Slick/ Jefferson Starship song. Cathy's delivery , articulation of lyrics and impassioned vibrato do Grace justice. A stellar artist paying homage to a rock legend.

[@chazzer56]

This track, was for me, an important psychedelic anthem during the 1970s. When I noticed this performance in my KZbin recommendations, I was nervous that it might disappoint. How wrong could I have been? This is an extraordinary performance and does absolute justice to Grace Slick's original recording. Well done!

[@thomasmazur6916]

Great version of a great song. Cathy has a great voice.

[@ElliottMichaels56]

I know it's way too soon, but both Beatles and Starship fans will appreciate this: PAUL IS DEAD ... MISS HIM, MISS HIM, MISS HIM!

[@darrenallard6546]

Definitely miss Paul

[@albericoalessandro9767]

Lindo, lindo, lindo...greetings from Brazil. 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@joehopkins3763]

thank you Paul.

[@victoriaEish]

My favorite song they ever did! This chick is amazing!

[@Mikey422IL]

Amazing quality and sound, I love this vid! Cathy's commitment to the performance, compelling storytelling and incredible vocals are a major treat to behold.

[@sezginerol]

Can't you hear Grace singing with her..Amazing!

[@bluenotesharp]

Nice job by all. Thanks, JF.

[@flathead59]

Very cool ,good job, love it, thanks for this....

[@noddyguevara]

Brilliant ! Great stuff .

[@christopherbrown3063]

I saw them in the UK with Cathy, White Rabbit had tears streaming down my face, she did the songs justice, one of the best shows I ever attended.

[@jameshowell3515]

in 1984-lakeland---i saw-starship-live---once in a lifetime---it was-fantastic

[@smokydogjoe]

Great tune/video...Cathy Richardson has been one of my favorite musicians for the past three years (since i've had kids). She is a regular on the childrens' show "Jack's big music show" and also does the voice of Jack's mom. I was pleasantly surprised when i did a search on her. Some of the music/singing she does on that show is just amazing and when i heard she was with J.S. i thought "yep, she's perfect for that"...If you ever get the chance to see her do some scat, you're in for a treat

[@smiles12331]

:))) amazing vocals

[@fractally]

missing papa john creech's violin...

[@ScottyColoradoKid]

Really good job; hey did anybody see the movie Arrival? It is about how time is circular, not linear; that movie came out in 2016, and this song was written by Grace in 1974! I thought I was the only one that had a special connection to this song; but hey; Cathy is to be saluted; she is the only one on that stage just giving it her all; nobody can cover Grace without criticism, she did a helluva great cover here....

[@kimonui]

man. she is great. looking forward to their Hawaii gig.

[@isabellalive2.081]

Learning it Live, The Lord said If anyone asks what I'm doing say the Master is in need of this song, and I will go in peace song in ❣

[@Anumber2112]

Wow! Cathy. Sweet, powerful voice. Wish I could jam with you sometime.

[@karmalyuk]

RESPECT!

[@cowboysfan782008]

It's amazing how young Grace still looks! Also quite different with her hair blonde now.

[@johniorio7951]

she was cryogenically frozen in about 1979, when she defrosted, her hair was bleached and blond

[@user-rh3qb5dz7z]

Her hair is a lovely shade of white(rabbit).

[@marcios614]

yes

[@troudub]

super. merci

[@gs8459]

Ça passe fan de grâce

[@tracilevi2345]

This is great! She looks like she could be Vince Neil’s daughter. Great voice ❤️

[@dimethaltryptamine1]

Yeah Cathy beats Dianne but neither with no disrespect come close to Grace slick for hairs on end tears in eyes laughter & joy at just the sound of her voice. Only one I've even heard close to Gracie is Patti Smith. VALE PAUL KANTER RIP I love you man

[@Exiles800]

+dimethaltryptamine1 Goes unsaid. Grace is a singer who leaves you worshiping and in love with her. I can see from this video why Grace recommends Cathy because she has good attack and tone that fits what Grace was doing as far as sound. Grace - oh man! I want her to come take my soul when I die. Angel, goddess, deity on Earth...(But one who will rip you a new one with her wit, which is the type of woman I like. lol)

[@oblsa]

amazing performance of Bilbo Bolson. min 0:56.

[@YrendenQ]

cool

[@pbesmer]

agree

[@cowboysfan782008]

@CookOfTheHouse Yeah I was kidding, but this is the 1st time I have heard this Starship stuff from the early/mid 70's and it's pretty damn good. I was early teens and remember when they regained popularity with wind's of change etc, but was never that into it. With a lot of the bands that have been around, especially RUSH, I prefer their raw 70's sound to the more key board/techno sound that came into play in the early 80's. Yes & early Genesis are other bands that had talent.

[@jackhillty]

damn. for some reason the words seem to make more sense now than they did when Grace used to sing this. Is it Cathy or is it the passing of time?

[@MrRpm1961]

at least she got the balls to try total respect heavy groove

[@ploermel56490]

does someone knows, why Diana Mangano left Jefferson Starship ?

[@alanollier9683]

Must say that the thing I liked about Slick Aguilar is that He never copied Jorma, Craig or even on occasion Jerry's licks but made the song His own, this guy obviously a late substitute is trying to play straight Craig and credit to Him not a bad job on a song probably learned at short notice....read once in an interview that after Signe's departure there were only two female singers in SF Grace and Janis ...Cathy makes You wonder what a Janis JA and JS would have sounded like..

[@CookOfTheHouse]

@cowboysfan782008 I actually like the Jefferson Airplane Stuff and Jefferson Starship but only till the Earth LP, I can barely listen to the next albums!! If I want to listen to a 70's pop/rock band, I'd pick Wings, one of my favourites!

[@iorioriorio]

I loved diane fer shure ...but I think Kathy cops Grace's edge a bit more (despite bein a blond!) Grace was a total radical....and a yippie!

[@CookOfTheHouse]

@cowboysfan782008 Are you kidding??

[@jhpowlton]

Sorry Cathy Richardson good job but filling the shoes of Grace Slick is a bigggg job!

[@pouchfreeman]

@cowboysfan782008 Humor. haha.

[@nicholasfredman2956]

So sad ,Paul you did wonders ,you and Grace did wonders ,but you parted and spent most of the time trying to put her down with various female vocalist 'impersonators' WHAT A WASTE --------LOOK AT THE WOOD !!

[@Willow-qk6or]

Wow, she's got a very powerful voice - so, she doesn't exactly sound like Grace Slick but she's awesome, too.
