Her autobiography? I have that somewhere, but I'm packing all kinds of stuff up right now, so sure! I'd love to have it.

Nope, the Airplane bio. I don't have her autobiography... wish I did.
Here's the pic:

it didn't really scan as well as I'd expected, but I hope it'll do. I'm scanning a few other pics from the book, too. There's some good stuff in there!

Thank you!!!!!! I'm going to shrink it, print it out, and tape it to the door of my new apartment. I need something to christen it and this will totally do the job.

I love that one, too! Damn, I have to go look up some old photos of Grace. I've got some photos of her at Woodstock that I bought in a record shop years ago that are fab, but I've no idea where the heck they are.

I am repying to the first post a bit late, but I don't think that the two of them (Grace and Stevie) should be compared. I mean, they could, since they are both female rock singers, but I believe they are completely different and not just because Stevie is so feminine. It's the songs, the way of singing everything that is different. Like someone else said earlier, I would most likely compare Grace to Janice Joplin.
Now that I think about it, I am not really sure that I could compare Stevie to anyone, at least of that era. IMO, she brought a whole new style , in an era where female singers had to be either political and strong or not-so-feminine (like Joan Baez or Grace) in order to stand out in an onviously man-centered rock world, or too mellow and romantic (like Karen Carpenter perhaps?). What was new about Stevie was that she was not even a combination of the two, she went far beyond that.
By the way, in another thread I said that sometimes Stevie reminds me unintentionally of Marianne Faithfull, but I meant especially in terms of self-destruction and drug use (and how their voices used to be so beautiful when they were young and then wrecked by drugs). But I seriously think that M.F. , even though today is recognised as a significant performer, could have only dreamed of being as big/inspired/captivating/genuine as Stevie in the late 70's (and that comes from a M.F. fan).

Grace Slick -vs- Stevie Nicks


STEVIE NICKS

But what's the use in comparing them. Stevie has had a much longer run in the spotlight, is way way hotter, written better songs, and is the more powerful performer of the two without resorting to flashing her tits, using profanity and flipping the bird. Grace's comment about middle age rockers ...well speak for yourself honey. It gets embarrasing when they act like they did 20 or so years ago, which Stevie does not. One day there will be a time when we cant see the older artists perform, so until then they should stay out there. Imagine telling Stevie, Bonnie, Paul, Billy, Tom and all the others that your to old to perform.

I wouldn't mind seeing half of them stop performing on stage. Namely Billy Joel, Stevie Nicks, and Paul McCartney.

To an apartment on a lower floor in the same building.

All the **** I've got on my door now is moving right along with me.

man, that really bums me when I hear people talk like this. I mean, it's your opinion, that's fine, but the thought of Stevie stopping...I can't even think about it

And for you Grace Slick fans...here's a nice gallery that has some of her art collection. She is quite good. I think I prefer her as a painter more than a singer.
