You wouldn't recognize her.

She was an arrogant over-rated egotist. Her bandmates hated her guts. With good reason. Maybe she mellowed with age.

@@robertlivingstone442 I dont think she ever did 😄

Damn if I could have guessed late 30. Amazing.

She was a good-looking woman and what a voice!

Spitfire -- Great cover! And... St. Charles!

Thanks for depressing me!!! Ugh!!!! I'm soooo old!!!

I wonder if she puts cream on her elbows now 😆

Wow, time passes.

Grace was already nearly 30 years old when Jefferson Airplane played Woodstock in 1969. She was amazing back then. Grace and Janis were the first two great female rockers, though Joplin was actually a blues singer. Things got tougher for Grace in the late 1970s through the 1980s. The pressure of being an aging rocker trying to keep up in a business that favors the young affected her ..as did her band changing into something unrecognizable from what it was when it began 20+ years earlier. Hip & idealistic San Francisco psychedelic band turned into an 80s corporate rock act by its management and record company…with Grace the only remaining original member. She didn’t handle any of this well. Fortunately she sobered up and finally followed the advice she’d given an earlier interview: “All rock-and-rollers over the age of 50 look stupid and should retire." Grace Slick was incredible during the 1960s and early 1970s. Many great female rock singers have pointed to Stevie Nicks as an influence. Stevie points to Grace as an influence. Imho Grace Slick should be put in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame a second time, this time by herself and getting a Musical Influence award.

Is Grace still pretty sexy today at 84? I bet she's aged like a fine wine.

cool story. what year was that?

@@wesleyrhoten8505 late 60's --early 70;s Can't pin it down further than that. If I could remember the first song they played (as I can with s few other shows such as the Dead) I could find a playlist and nail the date..

Grace is still alive! Going on 85!!

You must be living under a rock or you're under 25 years old

She was in Great Society. It was her, her husband Jerry, his brother Darby and Peter Van Gelder (who is my father). They were the first band to play White Rabbit (written by Grace) and Somebody to Love (written by Darby). The band broke up when she left to join Jefferson Airplane because their lead singer quit after she had a baby.

Grace could write,sing, and Perform!!! M O'B

I think she'll know.....

@@helbitkelbit1790 When logic and proportion Have fallen sloppy dead

@@tigrismask8450 . . . and the White Knight is talking backwards . . .

Does anyone remember the musical comedian, Martin Mull? Well word has it that during one of Martin's performances back in the day, Grace gave Martin a "gift" right in the middle of his act. A lesson in oral hygiene. Heard this from many sources. My kind of woman.

If I remember correctly, it became the "Prancing Fluids"

@@bobcunningham9469 YES !!! I was trying to remember but, this long ago. thnx

@@bobcunningham9469 Weird. I only remember the original name.

Also invited H. Angels to Altamont! Brilliant?

Upon her suggestion. She had used them before and suggested it to them and the Stones. I could be wrong I will check and get back.@@mrJimCharles

@@culpritcanine6059 Wrong. The Rolling Stones management hired the Hells Angels on recommendation of the Jefferson Airplane and Grateful Dead.

@@duffbaker9554 According to various sources, including Rolling Stone and other interviews, Grace Slick, the lead singer of Jefferson Airplane, suggested hiring the Hells Angels as security for the Altamont Free Concert in 1969. Slick had previously worked with the Hells Angels at a Jefferson Airplane concert in Golden Gate Park, where they provided security without incident. She believed that the Hells Angels would be able to effectively manage the crowd and keep the peace at Altamont. Paul Kantner’s Confirmation In an interview, Paul Kantner, Jefferson Airplane’s bassist and Slick’s partner, confirmed that Slick had suggested the Hells Angels as security for Altamont. Kantner stated that Slick had mentioned the Hells Angels’ previous experience working with the band and their ability to handle the crowd without incident. Jagger’s Agreement According to Slick, she and Jagger discussed the idea of hiring the Hells Angels as security, and Jagger agreed to the suggestion. Slick recalled that Jagger was hesitant at first but eventually agreed, thinking that the Hells Angels would be able to provide a more relaxed and peaceful atmosphere at the concert.

Linda, who was indeed blessed with great pipes, was interpreter and more Pop than Rock. I would say Ann Wilson would be more of a princess of Rock than Linda but, as they say, to each their own..

@@duffbaker9554 WELL LIKE , THATS JUST LIKE YOUR OPINION MAN ?

I refer to them as Cookie Cutter. I'll take this and 70s, 80s SNL over what we're seeing now. 😎✌️

Umm, yeah.....

Yeah talk about clickbait.

..the term 'blow your skirt up', refers to doing something your excited about. In this case, music. ✨️✌️

@@gilbertgranby9339 Thanks. Is that a very old term?

@ColtraneTaylor It dates back as far as Marilyn Monroe. In reference to her Iconic Picture in New York. 🤔✌️

@@gilbertgranby9339 Yeah, thought so.

;)

Most of the icons of the 60s sold out big-time in the 80's.

Blame the band’s record company not Grace. Every band at the time was being pressured to have HITS which meant bringing in outside writers the 1980s hits were written by outside writers.

@@jaycareaga9929 I know some of what you're saying is true, but it's also true that a number of top-notch new bands --- such as Cinderella, Poison, Guns'n'Roses, The Go-Gos, and even the renovated AC/DC with new singer Brian Johnson --- had hits with their own songs. But as far as Grace coming back into JS, that was something the members decided. And given her whole track record, especially her recent track record at the time, her return didn't keep them at the level they attained with 'Freedom At Point Zero.' Listen to the song 'Find Your Way Back' from 1980, and tell me if Grace's vocals or video appearance added anything to it. Mickey Thomas could have gotten someone from the audience of an all-night movie to do the backing vocals and no one would have missed Grace at all.

Have you ever heard her sing?????She made the JA.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

You've got to be kidding? You can't be a baby boomer.

There’s just no accounting for some peoples taste, or in this particular case, the lack thereof. ✌🏼😎🇺🇸

Hi Mr.Sunshine.

Yes, overhyped and Janis with her slim discography was worse.

Eh? Why?

Yes, she's a psychopath. 😅
