fans of artists like mccartney, debbie harry, and (even) stevie have good reasons to keep pleased with what they're still getting, on the other hand, grace slick's last years in commercial recording (exhibit a: We Built This City) were indeed something to keep one embarrassed about for years.
grace had tons of attitude and abilities, but nothing much to back it up in other aspects; she couldn't break free from her own "fleetwood mac", record her own "bella donna", and recreate a significant musical/iconic impact in her own right.
what i find interesting is how she didn't manage to consolidate a proper recognition to her contribution to rock's evolution, stevie, on the other hand, seems to be obsessed by those efforts in the last few years.
in a way, grace slick is like those chinese that sailed to america; history is being written by winners, and janis became the Columbus.

I'm sorry...who is Debbie Harry??

Some chick who had a couple of hits in the late 70's/early 80's.

But they should at least be AWARE of the name...



on edit: Then again...I didn't even know who Grace Slick was...so, I can't talk.

She's much more than that...she's a pioneer, of sorts, in my opinion. I love her...a very cool lady.

oh come on Brandon...seriously, you don't believe that

if I was just blowing smoke up his ass, I wouldn't know that one of her first band was called the Stilletos, Rapture was one of if not the first rap songs, the name Blondie actually came from all the whistles not necessarily because of her hair, Jimmy Destri has been part of some of the best songs ever recorded, she worked as a Playboy Bunny and she has an affinity for off-the-wall movie roles

granted, I am not as close to a clone as I am with Stevie, but I assure you I couldn't care less about scoring points with anyone (no offense Diss)

She's got a new one coming out later this year called "Full Grown Men" with Alan Cumming and Amy Sedaris where she plays Beauty, a retired Weeki Wachee mermaid.
