Grace Slick Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018

That fall Jefferson Airplane’s vocalist Signe Toly Anderson left the group to begin a family, and Jack Casady requested Slick to join them. Slick said that she joined the Plane as it had been run in a professional manner, unlike The Great Society. Though both tunes were first performed by The Great Society, their variations of the tunes were substantially different: the Great Society’s rendition of “White Rabbit” featured an oboe solo by Slick. With Slick on board the Plane started recording new music, and they took on a psychedelic path from their former folk rock. By 1967, Surrealistic Pillow as well as the singles taken from it were great successes, and Jefferson Airplane became among the most famous groups in the united states. Slick earned a place as among the very obvious female rock musicians of her time. Other songs she recorded with Jefferson Airplane contain “Two Heads”, “Lather” and “Greasy Heart”. In 1968, Slick performed “Crown of Creation” on The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour in blackface and stopped the performance using a Black Panther fist.

#Quote
1[on the Altamont Free Concert] The vibes were bad. Something was very peculiar, not particularly bad, just peculiar. It was that kind of hazy, abrasive and unsure day. I had expected the loving vibes of Woodstock but that wasn't coming at me. This was a whole different thing.
2[on the Monterey Pop Festival] It was the first time many of the bands have met and saw each other perform, so we were all really marveling at each other. It was just one good group of people after another. And different kinds of music -- from Jimi Hendrix to Ravi Shankar, The Mamas and the Papas to The Who. They had a backstage area where there was food being served 24 hours a day, so everybody was wandering around meeting each other. I was just amazing.
3She's more even - [daughter China Kantner] - I think it jumps generations. You get a screwball in one, and then the next one is straight, then you get a screwball. My grandmother was goofy, my mother was straight.
4But we all do sort of the same thing and that's rearrange what you thought was real, and they remind you of the beauty of very simple things. You forget, because you're so busy going from A to Z, that there's 24 letters in between.
5I was appalled that the San Francisco ethic didn't mushroom and envelope the whole world into this loving community of acid freaks. I was very naive.
6You can do jazz, classical, blues, opera, country until you're 50, but rap and rock-and-roll are really a way for young people to get that anger out. It's silly to perform a song that has no relevance to the present to express feelings that you no longer have.
7I don't miss anything about the 1960s, not really. I did it. It's like asking, "Do you miss the fourth grade?". I loved the fourth grade when I was in it, but I don't want to do it again.
8[late 1960s] We are the people that our parents warned us about.
9Prancing around on stage is not the entire purpose of my life.
10[August 16, 1969, upon walking out on stage at Woodstock] Alright friends, you have seen the heavy groups, now you will see morning maniac music. Believe me, yeah. It's a new dawn. Good morning, people!

11She gave birth to her daughter China Kantner on January 25, 1971 in San Francisco. Contrary to popular belief, Slick never seriously intended to name her "God" or "god" with a lower-case g, she said this jokingly to a religious delivery room nurse as she was filling out the birth certificate.

26She once revealed that she, along with Yippie leader Abbie Hoffman, once tried to attend a White House tea for graduates of Finch College, where Tricia Nixon once attended. While at the tea, Slick intended to sneak up next to President Richard Nixon and spike his tea with LSD. The secret service recognized them and escorted them off the grounds before the attempt could be made.
27Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996 (as a member of Jefferson Airplane).
28She was the lead singer for the rock groups Jefferson Airplane and Jefferson Starship.
