    Also consider when analyzing this performance that Grace had been up all night waiting and waiting to perform, and finally did several hours after the scheduled time. She was barely awake, but being the great singer that she was, Grace pulled it off :-)

    First off, Grace Slick is The Queen of F'ing Everything in my book. Of her voice she said, "I have five or six good notes, but I know how to use them". You should listen to the LP version of this as her vocal control is much stronger. If you want to hear softer songs by Grace, give a listen to Lather, Triad or Will You Remember Me?. You can listen to a dozen live recordings of this song and hear a dozen different inflections, but you will always hear her strength.

    Hi there. I am 72 years old. I was 20 when Woodstock happened and I was there so I heard this performance in THAT moment but I may have been young but I knew this Band and this performance were iconic. I was already familiar with Grace and how special she was and is. I was also at the beginning of becoming a Classically trained musician back then but As much as Bach and Scarlatti informed my growth so did Grace. "Vocal" doesn't always mean a human voice singing. The blend of the voices in a Bach invention and Grace Slick singing in the context a Rock Band still feel like the same magic in my soul. I truly am happy for you that you were blessed to discover this music in 2022. Explore Grace as a painter...Creativity makes a wide swath across many Art forms.
    Grace ended her career in music in her early 50's. She did not disappear but gave a clear statement that (exact words can be googled) that she could not get with the visual of a 50 year old woman singing rock n roll. I was there at. her last performance and her voice and emotional connection was still stellar. No vocal damage to be heard. I think she was ready to put her creativity in to other things.

  • @donaldbutcher1260
    @donaldbutcher1260 3 года назад +173

    I know live recordings are more immediate and exiting, however this particular version was taped very early in the morning and "augmented " by the use of psychedelic drugs.
    I would suggest listening to the original album or there are other live versions that really do justice to Grace's voice.

    • @jakeenan
      @jakeenan 3 года назад +11

      Grace said in her book she preferred mescaline but stopped taking psychedelics by 68. At Woodstock she said she drank wine and smoked weed......and never once went to the toilet because it was disgusting. Haha None of the band were tripping that day either. They looked frazzled because they were frazzled from 2 days of no sleep on top of being stoned.

    • @elizabethlinsay9193
      @elizabethlinsay9193 3 года назад +12

      Donald Butcher: I completely agree with you. The studio version would be easier to analyse because there is no background noise. However, it's still Grace Slick at her vocal best, in my opinion.

      Listing to a vocal only (isolated) version of “White Rabbit” is a suitable demonstration. Her voice does not need a band to back it up.
      The lyrics are more profound on their own than with Jefferson Airplane.

    Grace Slick was a great power singer. Somebody to Love was probably their biggest hit. Then they morphed into Jefferson Starship, many good songs. Hard to believe she's in her early 80s, good memories. I agree it was a good place to be in the late 60s especially for music. Keep up the good work!

    • @philipsheppard4815

    Grace Slick was one of the most powerful voices of the late 60's, early 70's. Her band, Jefferson Airplane, which morphed into Jefferson Starship to just Starship, is still touring. However, it is without Grace, as she retired from singing many years ago. She is now an artist and is very happy with her Golden Years. It is great that you are reacting. As others have mentioned, this was not one of her better performances, as she got very little to no sleep the night before and was not in her best voice. Check out the studio version and you will find that this song was sung much more powerfully on the album.

    Janis and Grace; The POWER voices of the'60s. With Grace' baritone and then into attack mode; just incredible voice. all singers/musicians have their 'best slow (love) songs'; her's being the song 'Today' where she is absolutely dreamy.

    I was an alto when I was in chorus and musical theater in high school, and I always felt super insecure about my voice because while it was strong in an ensemble, it wasn't a great soloist voice. I never felt like I had that cute pop star kind of voice and was cursed with a mezzoalto that had no place anywhere. I fell out of singing in college because I never joined any groups, but I kept singing in the car. I've lost a lot of my training. I'd always known Jefferson Airplane was a good band, having taken a History of Rock and Roll music course in college and listened to White Rabbit, but I'd never appreciated it until I came across a TikTok with a remixed version of Somebody to Love, which sent me down the rabbit hole (heh, pun) and slowly but surely I fell in love with Grace Slick's vocals. She made me realize that my strong voice is a gift, and I want to get back into vocal training so I can learn how to sing just like her. I'd even sell my soul if I could learn her vibrato technique, but I'm pretty sure her vibrato is like Freddie Mercury's and can never be emulated

    Great reaction.. I grew up in the 60s and 70s. Woodstock was the event twhere the youth of of that time showed and dreamed what could be. Within a year Altamont (and Charles Manson) ended that dream and showed the world the nightmare of where we were headed. However if you want to know what that time was like through music you should Watch the full Woodstock Documentary as well as Altamont. Way to many iconic and legendary performances to mention.

    I was always so in love with the persona of Grace, based on this film clip. I saw this years ago, and instantly fell in love, and have had a past-life crush on her ever since. Not just her beauty, but the intensity of this song. It's wonderful.

    I'm sad you weren't born in the 60's because then you would have grown up listening to two decades of greatest musicians. I happy though that you're discovering them now.

    Grew up in Southern California as a teenager in the’60’s and was fortunate enough to get to see a large number of bands during those years. Saw Jefferson Airplane twice. I don’t care if Grace sang a cookbook I would have bought it. As always and forever, they were one of the best.

    I saw the Blue Man Group in Las Vegas 15 years ago, and they had a sing-a-long of this song, and I was surprised to realize I knew the words (I was not alive in the 1960s). Such a fun song.

    Yes, her voice was *really* tired out in this particular performance. While the tricks you noted were definitely part of her style, I think they were much more evident in this performance because she was working so hard. She didn't hit a lot of the regular high notes but worked around them in smart ways. I really do love her technique.

    when I was young in Toronto and this came on at a dance or something you rose to your feet (if you could) and raised your right fist. at the end you pumped your fist in rhythm with the beat to finish with her. WR 4VR. 🐰☮☯☮🐰

    I can't believe that you have never heard Grace Slick and the Jefferson Airplane before.
    The genius about the Woodstock performance, was that it was early in the morning, and Grace and the band had probably had no sleep, and still off their faces on psychedelics, marijuana and alcohol.
    The song before White Rabbit... Don't you need somebody to love, is great too.
    Her introduction...
    Shouting... "Good morning, people!!!"
    Check it out, Beth ❤️

    18 that summer. It WAS a great time to be alive! The music!! The awareness! Of course.... we young men could get drafted into the service and go get killed or spun out in Viet Nam, so there was That. But the explosion of musical variety and experimenting was unequalled before, and maybe not since!!! Great song and excellent review, Miss Beth.
