Born To Rock...

Oct. 30th, 1939 - Grace Barnett Wing, or Grace Slick, was born...

Here with Jefferson Airplane, although she has also sung with The Great Society (before JA), and Jefferson Starship and then Starship (variations on JA afterwards), and was a solo artist for many years after that... and "The Other Side Of This Life"...

Of course, those of you who have followed my blog for a while will know this is not my favourite Jefferson Airplane song... TBH, I've never heard it before, and only included it because it's a funny clip (my god, the air above that concert must have been lethal! any seagulls passing overhead would have been high for weeks after!)...

My favourite track of theirs is, of course, White Rabbit.
