Grace Slick, the rare front woman who could sound both regal and dangerous in the same breath, walked into the Bay Area storm with The Great Society (1965–1966), then leveled the room with Jefferson Airplane (1966–1973) and came back for the reunion (1989). After the Airplane splintered, I watched her steer the heavier, road-tough years of Jefferson Starship (1974–1978, 1981–1985-ish), then ride the glossy hit-factory era as Starship (1985–1988) while still singing like she owned the sky. “White Rabbit” and “Somebody to Love” weren’t just songs to me—they were psychedelic hard proof that a voice can reroute culture.
