Grace Slick was the soul of Jefferson Airplane. By the bye, living in San Francisco’s Haight-Ashbury in the Summer of Love (1967), I had the privilege of hearing Grace Slick and Janis Joplin doing an impromptu duet in Golden Gate Park. Incredible! And neither of them needed an amplifier. I think the song was “Mustang Sally”. What a day! 🤗

[@EchoRider515]

Grace Slick has such a powerful voice & some serious vibrato. Jefferson Airplane really rocked out at Woodstock even though Grace was drunk off her face. Lmao! The group name changes were due to changes in the band line~up & who owned the name. They went from Jefferson Airplane to Jefferson Starship to Starship. I cracked up when you said you were excited to continue *going down the rabbit hole* of them. Hee hee hee.

[@bugman2509]

In between Airplane and Starship there was an album by Paul Kantner and Jefferson Starship called “Blows Against the Empire”, about the hijacking of a starship. They started going by just Starship after two members split.

You two are by far the best “Reactionaries” of classic music on the Tube. You remind me of two children, walking through an unknown forest, and finding one unforeseen treasure after another. And like any other successful treasure hunters, the happiness you project when you strike gold is contagious. Keep on keeping on. P.s. I grew up with this music, and got to see live many of the musicians you’re checking out. It was a wonderful time for music. But I’m not lamenting the fact that the past is past. After all, old songs that were well done, never lose their glitter. And I love that wall in the background.😎

[@lindabland9656]

Just keep on truckin through these old tunes children. You guys are finding the gold nuggets that we all loved in our youth, and teen years.

[@CHRISRTO1]

Ok. The “in and out” is called “vibrato” because the voice sort of “vibrates”. And singers do control that. I’m not a singer, I’ve just always wanted to be one and have been in the church choir. But that is what that’s called. Word of the day….vibrato.

[@lisarainbow9703]

"Miracles" by Jefferson Starship has mind-blowing vocals, too...

[@haintedhouse2990]

Grace joked saying it was a good thing she married Jerry Slick cause to be Grace Wing of the Jefferson Airplane would have been way too cute.

[@donaldcarey114]

Too bad she drifted into the humanity hating PETA crowd. Sad.

[@annapavlakis7626]

Her voice could cut glass. She's always been one of my all-time favorite singers.

[@michaelrawling9085]

In the late 60's there were many San Francisco groups about to break huge. Two of the more popular were The Great Society and Jefferson Airplane. Signe Anderson and Marty Balin were the leads for Airplane. Signe was pregnant and left the group to raise her family after their first album. The Great Society was led by brothers Jerry and Dewey Slick and Jerry's wife Grace. Jerry and Grace were breaking up and the band was falling apart. Dewey wrote Somebody to Love and Grace wrote White Rabbit which had a much more middle eastern sound. Paul Kantner asked Grace to join Airplane and she brought those two songs with her, and Airplane became huge.

[@kathleenhudson8429]

You should add Santana to this group. Heard them in San Francisco before they became nationally known.

[@jaypeitzer3719]

Darby Slick not Dewey....LOL.

[@ravenrose1972]

She came back in the 80's with Jefferson Starship, We Built This City. And yes she and the group are very iconic in that period of music history.

[@keithosmond5730]

By that time they had dropped "Jefferson" and were just Starship.

I'm a music freak, and have been all my life-ALL genres, but of course I'm a rock and roller at heart, but again, I 'love so much about music- it's the great uniter as far as I'm concerned. You two are a gas. By the way, the word I've applied to Grace Slicks voice on this on this song, is 'soaring'. It is unique, and like you said, when you here it, you know who it is. Love the attire and head wear BTW.

Awesome band. Early days they were Jefferson airplane then they were Jefferson starship and then just starship as they progressed but you can't beat the early Rock. Speaking of early Rock can you react to Edgar and Johnny Winters version of tobacco road live from 1970 you'll get shook it's got everything you like in it both of you

[@directmessage5823]

That would be a double reaction if you got Jay to watch the movie "Mannequin" and the title song from this movie by Starship "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now". I miss the innocence from the 80's and earlier generations.

[@danielwalker1538]

Jane by starship is a legit song

[@arnoldpaine4973]

Actually, the band was different for each name change. The name change probably involved who legally owned the name. I'd expect that Kaukonen (guitar) and Cassidy (Bass) had a share of the ownership as the name chnged when they left the band and then again when Balin (vocals) and the Dryan (drums) left, eventualy leaving only Kanter (vocals and rythm guitar), who died in 2016, from the original band ( Slick was in and out of the band). Kaukonen and Cassdiy formed the band Hot Tuna (still performing). Balin went solo (died in 2018). Dryen died in 2005). My favorite Airplane album is After Bathing at Baxters. It probably has the best songs as a complete album with no fillers.

Should have done a live version. I love seeing Grace sing.

[@seanwright1749]

One of my favorite songs from that Era is Dear Mr Fantasy from Traffic Steve Winwood is such an amazing singer.

[@taun856]

Another Hippie-vibe group you might enjoy is It's A Beautiful Day. Their signature song is "White Bird" but I would also recommend "Time Is", "Girl With No Eyes", Wasted Union Blues" and the instrumental "Bombay Calling" - which inspired Deep Purples song "Sweet Child In Time".

Yes saw them at Jormas Fur Peace ranch in Southern Ohio about 3 years ago. Still sounding the same !

[@tonylachapelle1401]

I second that! They were folky, proggy, and underappreciated.

[@jillgehrke7262]

Today is a beautiful song from them.

Loved this first time I heard in 67, still do! Grace is one of the greatest singers ever in music history for me. They had a few good songs as Starship, worth checking out.

[@michaeldougherty8344]

GRACE what can you say, AWESOMENESS

[@sjfvet519us]

Grace also has a wicked sense of humor. Some of the songs where her vocals dominate are in 1)Two Heads, 2)Rejoyce, 3) Easter, 4) Silver Spoon. She also has 4 solo albums.

Yeh! Happy to see you! Happy you chose this video! One of my favorites for years!

You don't compare Grace Slick to everyone else. You compare everyone else to Grace Slick. She is one of THE best female voices in rock. The band went from Jeffeson Airplane to Jefferson Starship to just Starship. All because of personnel changes and legal reasons.

[@JJfromPhilly67]

One of my favorite songs ever. Grace Slick's voice is awesome, powerful, and as you say "out of this world! White Rabbit is about a drug trip.

[@ShikataGaNai100]

Jack Casady kicking serious ass on bass, along with Jorma Kaukonen on guitar.

[@stormy8207]

One of those songs that will go round and round in your head all day.

[@billgappmayer7911]

When my oldest son was 1 he preferred rock-n-roll. We were driving and had the Beatles playing my sister-in-law changed the radio station to a country station. My boy started crying until the Beatles were back on.

You guys are old souls blessed to have each other continue this journey thank you

[@stevenspringer1599]

particularly for amber: more magic by the airplane: "Comin' Back to Me"

[@Jonni1027]

Yes! Perfect, beautiful song!!❤️ Amber will ESPECIALLY love it!

[@larrygriffey612]

Absolutely love that song.

[@evanbirnholz2803]

Marty Balin sings on this song and the lyrics are hauntingly beautiful.

[@Jonni1027]
