Grace Slick, the iconic singer of Jefferson Airplane, reveals her captivating life story that intertwines with rock'n'roll history. At 85, she reflects on her experiences with drugs, free love, and rebellion against societal norms. With a sharp sense of humor, she critiques the conventional expectations placed on women during the 1950s. Slick’s music, notably 'White Rabbit', not only defined the psychedelic era but also pushed boundaries in the music industry, contributing to her legendary status. Despite her struggles with alcoholism and personal crises, her spirit remains vibrant and mischievous.

Does any other track sum up the trippy Summer of Love quite like her song White Rabbit, ...? That song cleverly evaded censors, taking hallucinogenic drug references into the homes of millions.
The woman born Grace Barnett Wing has no idea where this rebellious streak came from. ... But there was something about that stifled 1950s way of living that just never appealed.
A whole bunch of women I knew at that time thought: Don't think so! ... she snorts with disdain.
