This is my favourite Grace solo song.
Just the music and some pictures...
Some people say "Don't go away just stay right here"
Some say "If you stay at home you're gonna wind up alone"
Now you know you can't go two different
ways you can't believe everything you hear
And if you always do just what you're told
hen you've got no mind of your own
So if each man has a different plan let 'em go let 'em go
You have a power all your own
There's a spirit child inside you ready for life and I know
It's just waiting to see how you will grow
And when the spirit feels the need to wander let it go
Sometimes they say the only way is to really sing that song
Sometimes they say you're singing that way too loud too long
And if they can't make up their minds then I think I'll make up mine
Whatever way I feel is the only way I'm gonna sing that song
And if people don't seem to like it that's O.K. let 'em go
Some day they'll sing a song of their own
'Cause there's a spirit child inside them ready for life and I know
It's just waiting to see how they will grow
And when their spirit feels a need to wander I'm sure they'll go
Some people said "Try this,it'll make your smile"
Some said "Don't touch it, you end up crying"
Well it felt so good for a while but then I saw too many dying
When all they wanted to do was get a little higher
So if the game won't follow through let it go let it go
And leave the loaded dice alone
'Cause there's a spirit child inside them ready for life and I know
It's just waiting to see how they will grow
One too many-users lose it all
Then there's no one-no one to help then break the fall
People just like you who say "Oh no that won't be me"
End up face down-is that where you wanted to be
So if it's going to bring you trouble let it go let it go
Remember that doesn't mean you'll be all alone
'Cause there's a spirit child inside them ready for life and I know
It's just waiting to see how you will grow
Just the music and some pictures...

Early life (1939–1960s)
Grace Barnett Wing was born in Evanston, Illinois, to Ivan W. Wing (1907–1987) and Virginia (née Barnett; 1910–1984), the latter a direct descendant of passengers of theMayflower).[1] In 1949, a month before her tenth birthday, her brother Chris Wing was born. Her father was transferred several times when she was a child and, in addition to the Chicago area, she lived in Los Angeles and San Francisco before her family finally settled in Palo Alto, California, south of San Francisco, in the early 1950s. She attended Palo Alto Senior High School before switching to Castilleja High School, a private all-girls school in Palo Alto. Following graduation she attended Finch College in New York from 1957 to 1958 and the University of Miami in Coral Gables, Florida, from 1958–1959.
[edit]Musical career
[edit]The Great Society
Slick's music career started in 1965 in San Francisco when she and her then husband Jerry Slick formed their own band, influenced byThe Beatles as well as by a performance by the freshly-formed Jefferson Airplane at The Matrix and who, Slick realized, maintained an impressive revenue in comparison to her earnings as a model while having fun performing.[2] Slick and her husband, her then brother-in-law, Darby Slick and other friends named themselves The Great Society after the social reform program of the same name, beginning during the autumn of 1965 and by early 1966 becoming a popular psychedelic act in the Bay area. By the summer of 1966 The Great Society was recording, releasing one single in San Francisco, a precursor to the future Jefferson Airplane success "Somebody to Love", which was written by Darby. Grace provided vocals, guitar, piano and recorder and co-wrote a majority of the band's songs with her brother-in-law.
[edit]Jefferson Airplane
That autumn Jefferson Airplane's singer Signe Toly Anderson left the band to start a family, and the Airplane asked Slick to join them. Slick stated that she joined the Airplane because it was run in a professional manner, unlike The Great Society. She took two compositions from The Great Society with her; "White Rabbit", which she is purported to have written in an hour,[3] and "Somebody to Love", both of which went on to become hits and to appear on Rolling Stone's top 500 greatest songs of all time. Though both songs were first performed by The Great Society; their versions of the songs were much different: the Great Society's rendering of "White Rabbit" featured an oboe solo by Slick.
With Slick on board the Airplane began recording new music, they took on a psychedelic direction from their former folk-rock. By 1967,Surrealistic Pillow and the singles taken from it were great successes, and Jefferson Airplane became one of the most popular bands in the country. Slick rose to fame, earning her position as one of the most prominent female rock musicians of her time. Other notable songs that she recorded with Jefferson Airplane include "Two Heads", "Lather" and "Greasy Heart". In 1968 Slick performed "Crown of Creation" on The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour in black face and ended the performance with a Black Panther fist.[4] In an appearance on a 1969 episode of the Dick Cavett Show, she became the first person to say "motherfucker" on live television during a performance of "We Can Be Together" by Jefferson Airplane.[5]
[edit]Jefferson Starship and beyond
After Jefferson Airplane terminated, Slick – along with other bandmates – formed the even more popular Jefferson Starship and began a string of solo albums with Manhole, followed by Dreams,Software and Welcome to the Wrecking Ball. Manhole also featured keyboardist, bassist Pete Sears who later joined the original Jefferson Starship in 1974. Sears and Grace penned several early Jefferson Starship songs together, including "Hyperdrive" and "Play On Love". Dreams, which was produced by Ron Frangipane and incorporated many of the ideas she encountered attending 12-step meetings, is the most personal of her solo albums and was nominated for a Grammy Award. The song "Do It the Hard Way" from Dreams is one example of Grace's music at the time.[6]
Slick was nicknamed "The Chrome Nun" by David Crosby, who also referred to Paul Kantner as "Baron von Tollbooth". Their nicknames were used as the title of an album she made with bandmates Paul Kantner and David Freiberg entitled Baron Von Tollbooth and the Chrome Nun
[edit]Alcoholism
During Jefferson Starship's 1978 European tour, Slick's alcoholism became a problem for the band. The group had to cancel the first night in Germany because she was too intoxicated to perform, causing the audience to riot. She performed the next night with the band but was so inebriated she could not sing properly but began to attack the audience, mocking the country for losing World War II and groping both female audience members and band mates.[7] The next day she left the group. That same year she was dragged off of a San Francisco game show for abusing the contestants.[8] She was admitted to a detoxification facility at least twice, once during the 1970s at Duffy's in Napa Valley[9] and once in the 1990s with daughter China.[10] Slick has publicly acknowledged her alcoholism, discussed her rehabilitation experiences and commented on her use of LSD, marijuana and other substances in her autobiography, various interviews and several celebrity addiction and recovery books including The Courage to Change by Dennis Wholey and The Harder They Fall by Gary Stromberg and Jane Merrill.
During the 1980s, while Slick was the only former Jefferson Airplane member in Starship, the band went on to score three chart-topping successes with "We Built This City", "Sara", and "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now". Despite the success Grace has since spoken negatively about the experience and the music.[11] She left the group in 1988, shortly after the release of No Protection. In 1989 Slick and her former Jefferson Airplane band members reformed the group, released a reunion album and made a successful tour.
[edit]Personal life
Slick was married twice, to cinematographer Gerald "Jerry" Slick from 1961 to 1971 and then to Skip Johnson (1952-), a Jefferson Starship lighting designer, from 1976 to 1994. She has one daughter, China Wing Kantner (born January 25, 1971).[12][13] China's father is former Jefferson Airplane guitarist Paul Kantner, with whom Slick had a relationship from 1969 through 1975. During her hospital stay after the baby's birth, Slick sarcastically told one of the attending nurses (whom Grace found annoyingly sanctimonious) that she intended to name the child "god", with a lowercase "g", as she "wished for the child to be humble". The nurse took Slick seriously, and her reports of the incident caused both a minor stir[14][15] and the birth of a rock-and-roll urban legend.[16]
[edit]Legal disputes
Slick and Tricia Nixon, former President Richard Nixon's daughter, are alumnae of Finch College. Grace was invited to a tea party for the alumnae at the White House in 1969. She invited the political activist Abbie Hoffman to be her escort and planned to spike President Richard Nixon's tea with 600 micrograms of LSD. The plan was thwarted when they were prevented from entering after being recognized by White House security personnel, as Slick had been placed on an FBI blacklist.[17]
In 1971, after a long recording session, she crashed her car into a wall near the Golden Gate Bridge while racing with Jorma Kaukonen.[18] She suffered a concussion and later used the incident as the basis of her "Never Argue with a German if You're Tired or European Song", which appears on the Bark album (1971).[19]
While Slick had troubles with the law while acting as a part of Jefferson Airplane, she was arrested individually at least three times for what she has referred to as "TUI" ("Talking Under the Influence") and "Drunk Mouth".[20] While technically the charges were DUI, the three arrests mentioned in her autobiography occurred when she was not actually inside a vehicle. The first arrest occurred after an argument in the car with then-partner Paul Kantner, who became tired of bickering, pulled the car keys from the ignition, and tossed them through the car window onto someone's front lawn. While Slick crawled around on the lawn looking for the keys, a police officer arrived and asked what was happening. Her response (laughter) did not amuse the officer, and she was taken to jail.[citation needed]
The second time occurred after Slick had neglected to check the oil level in her car engine and flames began leaping out from under the hood. When an officer arrived and, as previously, asked what was happening, her response that time was less amusing and more sarcastic. With her car ablaze, it seemed obvious to her what was happening. As a result of her quip, she was taken to the Marin County jail.[citation needed]
The third arrest was after an officer encountered her sitting against a tree trunk in the back woods of Marin County drinking wine, eating bread, and reading poetry. When the officer asked what she was doing, her sarcastic response got her another ride to the Marin County jail.[21]
She was reportedly arrested in 1994 for assault with a deadly weapon after pointing an unloaded gun at a police officer. She alleged that the officer had come onto her property without explanation.[22]
[edit]Later life (1988–present)
Slick left Starship during 1988. After a brief Jefferson Airplane reunion and tour the following year, she retired from the music business. During a 1998 interview with VH1 on a Behind the Music documentary featuring Jefferson Airplane, Slick, who was never shy about the idea of getting old, stated that the main reason she retired from the music business was that "all rock-and-rollers over the age of 50 look stupid and should retire". In a 2007 interview, she repeated her belief that "you can do jazz, classical, blues, opera, country until you're 150, but rap and rock and roll are really a way for young people to get that anger out." and "it's silly to perform a song that has no relevance to the present or expresses feelings you no longer have". Even so, she has made a couple of appearances over the years with Paul Kantner's revamped version of Jefferson Starship when the band has played in Los Angeles, the most recent being a post-9/11 gig during which she came on the stage initially covered in black from head to toe in a makeshift burqa, which she removed to reveal a covering bearing an American flag and the words "No Fear". Her statement to fans on the outfit was: "The outfit is not about Islam, it's about repression; this flag is not about politics, it's about liberty."[23]
After retiring from music, she began painting and drawing. She has done many renditions of her fellow 1960s musicians, such as Janis Joplin, Jerry Garcia, and others. In 2000 she began displaying and selling her artwork. She attends many of her art shows across the United States. She has generally refrained from engaging in the music business, although she did perform on "Knock Me Out", a track from In Flight, the 1996 solo debut from former 4 Non Blondes singer, and friend of daughter China, Linda Perry. The song was also on the soundtrack to The Crow: City of Angels.
In a 2001 USA Today article, she said, "I'm in good health and people want to know what I do to be this way ... I don't eat cheese, I don't eat duck—the point is I'm vegan." However, she also admitted that she's "not strict vegan, because I'm a hedonist pig. If I see a big chocolate cake that is made with eggs, I'll have it."[24] Slick released her autobiography, Somebody to Love? A Rock and Roll Memoir, in 1998 and narrated an abridged version of the book as an audiobook. A biography, Grace Slick, The Biography, by Barbara Rowes, was released in 1980 and is currently out of print.
In 2006 Slick suffered from diverticulitis. After initial surgery, she had a relapse requiring further surgery and a tracheotomy. She was placed in an induced coma for two months and then had to learn to walk again.[25]When Airplane was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2007, she did not appear with them because she said that her feet were swelled up from surgery and she couldn't stand for more than a few minutes at a time.
Also in 2006, Slick gave a speech at the inauguration of the new Virgin America airline, which had named their first aircraft "Jefferson Airplane". In 2008, Slick contributed vocals to the hidden track (actually a previously unreleased 1970 outtake featuring Slick, Paul Kantner and Jack Traylor) of the latest Jefferson Starship release, Jefferson's Tree of Liberty.[26] In 2010, Slick co-wrote "Edge of Madness" with singer Michelle Mangione to raise money for the BP Oil Spill.[27]
[edit]Visual art
After retiring, and after a house fire, divorce, and breakup, Slick began drawing and painting animals, mainly to amuse herself and because doing so made her happy during a difficult period in her life. Soon thereafter, she was approached about writing her memoir, which ultimately became Somebody to Love? A Rock-and-Roll Memoir. Her agent saw her artwork and asked her to do some portraits of some of her various contemporaries from the rock-and-roll genre to be included in the autobiography. Hesitant at first (because she thought “it was way too cute. Rock-n-Roll draws Rock-n-Roll”), she eventually agreed because she found she enjoyed it, and color renditions of Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, and Jerry Garcia appeared in the completed autobiography.[28][29] An “Alice in Wonderland”-themed painting and various other sketches are scattered throughout the book. Her paintings of Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady were used for the cover art of the album The Best of Hot Tuna. Though Slick has been drawing and painting since she was a child, she admits to not being able to multitask and therefore did not do much of it while she was focusing on her musical career.[29] A notable exception is the cover art of her first solo album, Manhole, which she signed "Child Type Odd Art by Grace".
Slick is not faithful to any specific style or medium in her production of visual art and has no interest in developing one.[30] She uses acrylic paints (she says oil takes too long to dry), canvas, pen, ink, scratchboard, pastels, and pencil. Many of her works are mixed media. Her styles range from the children’s bookish “Alice in Wonderland” themes to the realism of the Rock and Roll portraits and scratchboards of animals to the minimalist ink wash styled nudes to a variety of other subjects and styles.[31] The best-selling prints and originals are, not surprisingly, her various renditions of the white rabbit and the portraits of her colleagues in the music industry.[32]In 2006, the popularity of her “Alice in Wonderland” works led to a partnership with Dark Horse Comics, Inc. that resulted in the release of stationery and journals with the “Wonderland” motif.[33]
While critics have variously panned and praised her work,[34] Slick seems indifferent to the criticism. She views her visual artistry as just another extension of the artistic temperament that landed her in the music scene in the first place, as it allows her to continue to produce art in a way that does not require the physical demands of appearing on a stage nightly or traveling with a large group of people.[28][29]
She attends many of her art gallery shows across the United States, sometimes attending over 30 shows in a year. While she says she enjoys talking with the people who come to her art shows, she is not a fan of the traveling involved, particularly the flying.[28] At most of her art shows, those who purchase a piece of her art get a photo with Slick, an opportunity to chat, and a personalized autograph on the back of the piece that has been purchased.
[edit]Legacy
Slick was one of the first female rock stars, alongside her close contemporary Janis Joplin, and therefore an important figure in the development of rock music in the late 1960s. Her distinctive vocal style and striking stage presence exerted influence on other female performers including Stevie Nicks[35] and Patti Smith.[36] More recently, Slick has been cited as an influence on Florence Welch of the UK band Florence and the Machine.[37]
[edit]Artistic accomplishments
Slick's longevity in the music business helped her to earn a rather unusual distinction; the oldest female vocalist on a Billboard Hot 100chart topping single. "We Built This City" reached #1 on November 16, 1985, shortly after her 46th birthday. The previous record was age 44 for Tina Turner, with 1984's #1 smash, "What's Love Got To Do With It". Turner (who is, coincidentally, within a month of Slick's age) turned 45 two months after the song topped the charts. Slick broke her own record in April 1987 at age 47 when "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" topped the U.S. charts. Her record stood for 12 years but was ultimately broken by Cher, who was 53 in 1999 when "Believe" hit #1.
Slick did vocals for a piece known as Jazzy Spies, a series of animated shorts about the numbers 2 through 10 (a #1 short was never made), which aired on Sesame Street. The segment for the number two appeared in the first episode of the first season of Sesame Street, November 10, 1969.
She was nominated for a Grammy award in 1980 as Best Rock Female Vocalist for her solo album Dreams.
She was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996 (as a member of Jefferson Airplane).[38]
She was ranked #20 on VH1's 100 Greatest Women of Rock N Roll.
In addition to singing, she sometimes played keyboards, oboe, bass, and recorder for the bands.
In 1993 she also provided the narration for the Stephen King short story "You Know They Got a Hell of a Band" on his Nightmares & Dreamscapes audiobook.

Lyrics of El Diablo
El Diablo I can feel your power in my soul
Dancing like your puppet though I try to break your hold
Half succeeding still I find I'm healing quickly
You'll not trick me one more time
El Diablo you are like a fountain blowing dust
Peddler of delusion, dire confusion and disgust
As you hook your mark with joyous heart you up the price
Take your pleasure elsewhere cast your gaze not on my life
El Diablo I can feel your power in my soul
Dancing like your puppet though I try to break your hold
Half succeeding still I find I'm healing quickly
You'll not trick me one more time
El Diablo I can hear you calling in the night
Pass me by in silence I'll not follow you tonight
Beat your breast like thunder vent your anger with a howl
You'll not pull me under I'll not tremble at your growl

What Grace Slick is doing now
Grace Slick, seen here being inducted into L.A.'s Rockwalk in 2002, is now devoted to painting.
When we set out to produce a series of Woodstock 40th-anniversary pieces, somebody asked, "Whatever happened to Grace Slick?"
We're happy to inform you that the former Jefferson Airplane singer is alive, well, and a visual artist based in Malibu, California. (She retired from music 20 years ago.) Although she'll turn 70 in October, she's colorful, candid and as opinionated as ever.
Her bright blue eyes are unflinching -- the same eyes that fascinated a generation of male fans in the late '60s and '70s. Only now, her hair is pure white, tied in a long ponytail streaming down her back.

Wow... great choice of songs tonight Brendasue. There were 2 of Slick's songs that I had never heard before. Loved all of them - the lyrics really spoke to me! Also loved the biographical info on her life ... fascinating. Talk about overcoming difficulties in your life and coming out on top ... Had no idea what she was doing these days. Her artwork looks fascinating. When I have a little more time I'm going to check out more of her art. Thanks for the great Hippie Hour once again. Peace and Love to you!
