+Melissa Wright Yeah, and I like how she can draw too, besides sing, and has done some good art since then. I heard an interview with The Guess Who singer who opened for Jeff/Air in concert once. He thought the Guess Who would be a tough act to follow, but he was wrong. After the first few notes of "White Rabbit," the place went nuts.
Grace was so kind to those two, and gave an honest interview. She could not plumb the depths of her worst alcohol-induced behavior, but gave a strong warn-off to alcohol and the drugs. One of my favorite short Slick interviews - the old salt speaking to naive, kindly, but not too bright kids.
Totally agreed. She managed to be herself but also sand off the edges just enough for the setting and the interviewers. And I thought she did a good job describing psychedelic drug use to folks who have zero frame of reference for that kind of experience.
my reaction too. never liked Donnie & Marie's music, & never saw their show, but they do a better interview here than a lot of performer interviews I've seen. They've got a nice interaction between them too. makes me wonder what other equally improbably sounding interviews they did. Dylan? Zappa? Baez? got curious enuf to do a youtube search, and amid the sea of vanilla I see Stevie Wonder, Count Basie, Richard Simmons, Little Richard.
"bald" = "no hair on head" "skinhead" is a modern slang that implies "by choice" or even "as a statement" (tho there are many diff personal statements thus made) "bald" was the word for no hair on head back when few if any chose to shave their heads. my impression is it is now only used in reference to people who can't grow hair ... but there is probably still a lot of crossover between the 2 uses for many people becuz "choosing" no head hair is a recent new style (at least "recent" at the pace at which languages evolve specific new terms). I've no idea which +abyios is saying Grace is.
@@turnipgreen17 absolutely not! She was a long time veteran musician and trust me, she’s been through a lot. She was very respectful and I think she really liked Grace and definitely knew her music and talent.
This is actually quite surreal. Donnie and Marie, the quintessential goody-two-shoes just really truly do not understand Grace, what she was about, or any of that scene at all. But they give it a good honest effort and end up getting a pretty good interview.
Yeah...I'm sitting wondering how she ended up on their show. I just can't see the two of them sitting around brainstorming about who to have on the show and coming up with Grace Slick. They both go to questioning about drugs, but Marie is pretty condescending. Grace handles herself very well, honest and up front while still remaining a polite guest.
Man! Gorgeous, smart, funny, talented, I mean who can compare with Grace Slick? She has to go down as the woman of the century!! And definitely the iconic female of the 60's. You're incredible Grace.xXx
Not really. They are all long time veteran musicians who were each successful. You think Donny and Marie weren’t fans of Grace? You think they never listened to rock music?
Marie and Donny, because of their genuine innocence, ask the best questions. Grace's life, and The Osmond's lives, two opposite worlds. Great interview.
GRACE SLICK FOR PRESIDENT SHE IS THE MOST HONEST PERSON EVER LADIES AND GENTLEMEN I PRESENT TO YOU THE UNDISPUTED TALENTED UNAPOLOGETICALLY GRACE SLICK 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 GO GRACE GO I STILL LOVE YOU EXCELLENT INTERVIEW 11/24/24 I AM WATCHING THIS FOR THE FIRST TIME AND I AM LISTENING TO WHITE RABBIT JAMMING AND THIS SONG NEVER NEVER WILL BE OLD ITS LIKE FINE WINE SENDING GREETINGS FROM BIRMINGHAM AL✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽
The Osmonds got stoned right before the show: Grace had done so many drugs up to this point she is clinically high the rest of her life. Murder Was the Case That They Gave Me.
Not only does she have a Great scene of humor, she's really down to earth and it shows! I know these interviews are a pain I'm the @$$ , but she is always so gracious. With the voice that sounds like no one else, she has paved the way for many female vocalist!
Three 70s icons from very different worlds meeting together at the end of the 20th Century to talk and coming across as reasonable, mature, and pleasant adults. Wish all superstars could pull that off. Remarkable interview.
Thank you so much for sharing & it's nice to watch the interview & legend is always legend.nice to know different facts & point of view. Best regards Anjum CT USA
Grace is one of those people who would be tremendously interesting to spend time with just talking, she always seems to cover a good scope of topics. Donnie and Marie were totally out of their element with her and I completely enjoyed it seeing this.
yeah if I could sit down and have dinner with somebody famous this would be the lady - i'd love to hear her talk about her shotgun standoff with the cops.
@@davidpanzer1166 they were very gracious and kind, but they weren't ever going to be able to pull the kind of deep dive from a musician like Grace. What I said stands, you can be mad all you want, but Grace Slick is not your ideal Donny and Marie daytime TV guest and seeing them struggle to get her was hilarious.
I'm reading these comments and all the jokes of people making fun of bad girl Grace Slick being interviewed by goody two shoes Donny and Marie. The truth is it was a very good interview, I think the most insightful one I've heard. Maybe it was so good because Grace and Donny and Marie being so different that brought out subject matter that someone who was Grace's peer would have never thought to discuss.
I agree. The comments are unreasonable. All three of them come across as pleasant, positive, and cheery. Far from being "out of their element," the Osmonds come across as chatty, curious, and respectful. How unlike interviewers today who always insist on putting people on the spot.
Just when this interview was getting REALLY good. . .Donnie and Marie had to cut away to sell some cornflakes or douche powder. What they SHOULD have done was allotted the entire hour to Ms Slick. Her intelligence and wit far outstrips most of those around her. This kind of interview you just can't get anymore.
Growing up during the 60s & 70s we heard so many different kinds of artists all on the same stations. I guess that's why this doesn't bother me to see Donny & Marie interviewing Grace. I mean, I loved my Beatles & Monkees and Dylan & The Lovin' Spoonful and The Doors & The Mamas & Papas and Kinks & Hermits and it goes on & on. We flat out had the greatest musical artists ever to be the soundtrack of our lives!
Yes! Not to mention on the same stations you’d hear James Brown, Wilson Pickett, Aretha, Dionne Warwick, Supremes, Beach Boys, Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash, Bobble Gentry, Ronettes, etc etc
The story about LSD in Nixon's tea is one she has told to death, but at 6:00, when she starts talking about Alice in Wonderland and drugs she gets pretty interesting... Nice clip; I've never been into the Osmonds at all (which, I assume, is true for most Airplane heads), but they are respectful and cordial here.
Amen! I agree completely. They knew who she was and I’m sure they listened to a lot of her music. They were above all else musicians who respect talented stars.
What makes this interview interesting is that its an odd pairing of people that works. Its too bad that we cant all be so positive and respect everyone elses differences and learn from that in 2017. Grace is clearly a rich white girl who followed her mind in the 1960's and has survived the consequences of the spinning wheel. Today we have a different drug problem killing a generation of people in their 20's and 30's. The wheel they spin was not as fortunate, but those of us with open minds can watch this interview and really understand this conversation. Especially when it is conducted by the hottest 'bubble gum' teen act of the 70's. Their experience was totally different from Grace as far as drugs go. Marie lost her son a few years ago. Triumph and tragedy doesn't exempt itself from us weather we are rich, poor, drug free, drug user, good or bad images, democrat or republican. Great interview!
Grace is one of my hero’s. She has such a beautiful personality, and has a great understanding of how things are and how they would be better. She is an intellectual and is complicated. I would like to spend an afternoon with her discussing her philosophy of life.
(About Jimmy Hendrix) "I'm just sorry I didn't know him better.." - Grace Slick - I'm thinking by the look on her face she meant know in the Biblical sense. 😆
I could listen to Grace all day and night
Slick is one smart person, and it comes through along with her sense of humor.
Pleasure to hear her speak so frankly about everything including herself.
Michael
Michael, had a crush on her since my Jr high school years In the mid 1960's.
I love this woman! she is an absolute delight x
you are right
Love her, she is amazing x
+Melissa Wright Yeah, and I like how she can draw too, besides sing, and has done some good art since then. I heard an interview with The Guess Who singer who opened for Jeff/Air in concert once. He thought the Guess Who would be a tough act to follow, but he was wrong. After the first few notes of "White Rabbit," the place went nuts.
+Dexter Haven Her description of drugs used in children's books blew my mind lol x
+Melissa Wright Alice in Wonderland has always been controversial LOL
20 yrs. ago already; she is so right about alcohol - much worse than drugs!
Grace was so kind to those two, and gave an honest interview. She could not plumb the depths of her worst alcohol-induced behavior, but gave a strong warn-off to alcohol and the drugs. One of my favorite short Slick interviews - the old salt speaking to naive, kindly, but not too bright kids.
If you think they are naive and not too bright, you are very ignorant and condescending.
Go Grace !
Totally agreed. She managed to be herself but also sand off the edges just enough for the setting and the interviewers. And I thought she did a good job describing psychedelic drug use to folks who have zero frame of reference for that kind of experience.
I love Grace. My husband bought me one of her self portraits. It hangs in our den
We all know she was (is) a great vocalist, but so honest, interesting and awesome stuff! I could sit here and listen to her for rest of day lol.
Marie Osmond is such a gem. Never realized how kindhearted she is and love the fact she adores Grace. Grace forever!
Grace Slick sitting and chatting with Donnie and Marie Osmond. Have I fallen through the looking glass?
You are because Grace is actually BALD! OMG
my reaction too.
never liked Donnie & Marie's music, & never saw their show, but they do a better interview here than a lot of performer interviews I've seen. They've got a nice interaction between them too. makes me wonder what other equally improbably sounding interviews they did. Dylan? Zappa? Baez?
got curious enuf to do a youtube search, and amid the sea of vanilla I see Stevie Wonder, Count Basie, Richard Simmons, Little Richard.
+abyios How do you know that Grace Slick is 'bald'?
"bald" = "no hair on head"
"skinhead" is a modern slang that implies "by choice" or even "as a statement" (tho there are many diff personal statements thus made)
"bald" was the word for no hair on head back when few if any chose to shave their heads. my impression is it is now only used in reference to people who can't grow hair ... but there is probably still a lot of crossover between the 2 uses for many people becuz "choosing" no head hair is a recent new style (at least "recent" at the pace at which languages evolve specific new terms).
I've no idea which +abyios is saying Grace is.
......or swinging on the pendulum
Grace is so cool.
She got it together. With a bank balance more than all of her critics combined. love her.
Perfect. Grace Slick is the most authentic , direct, truthful human. Much love
Marie so judgy> ugh
@@turnipgreen17 absolutely not! She was a long time veteran musician and trust me, she’s been through a lot. She was very respectful and I think she really liked Grace and definitely knew her music and talent.
Her memories of her musical contemporaries is absolutely fascinating.
I will always love Grace Slick!
Love love love her. Beautiful, both inside and out.
This is actually quite surreal. Donnie and Marie, the quintessential goody-two-shoes just really truly do not understand Grace, what she was about, or any of that scene at all. But they give it a good honest effort and end up getting a pretty good interview.
That's pretty much what I was thinking. I really do like both Donnie and Marie AND Grace Slick. I would have loved if this interview was longer.
Cuz she's just a really good interview
Exactly what I said
Yeah...I'm sitting wondering how she ended up on their show. I just can't see the two of them sitting around brainstorming about who to have on the show and coming up with Grace Slick. They both go to questioning about drugs, but Marie is pretty condescending. Grace handles herself very well, honest and up front while still remaining a polite guest.
I found myself sitting across from Donnie and a mutual friend at lunch one afternoon in '87. He was =nobody's= fool, I can assure you.
60’s to the 90’s the music that came out of those years will never be matched.
70's music was the best!
Grace Slick is absolutely one of a kind!!!
love her description of the Zappa household; just as i would imagine
** Stephen Stills wrote “ ROCK AND ROLL WOMAN” , for her!!!!! What an honour
Grace was a model at one time, & also 10 years older than most rockers .at the time.
Grace Slick makes every host a good interviewer. So easy, responsive, a pure storyteller.
Man! Gorgeous, smart, funny, talented, I mean who can compare with Grace Slick? She has to go down as the woman of the century!! And definitely the iconic female of the 60's. You're incredible Grace.xXx
This is a person that I could talk to for days.
Good interview and Donny and Marie are surprisingly good hosts. Grace tells like it is.
She's one of my idols now...
fligemon No wit or sense in that.
Dexter Haven True but plenty of pleasure for your erogenous zones
Donnie and Marie interviewing Grace Slick. That's just hilarious.
Not really. They are all long time veteran musicians who were each successful. You think Donny and Marie weren’t fans of Grace? You think they never listened to rock music?
@@davidpanzer1166 Yes, but their images and their lives or totally different.
Stay safe grace sending love from UK x
Grace is one of the last of 60s singers--she has great stories to share
Rock-N-Roll... And A College Degree...... Who Wouldn't Love Grace.. Humble Beginnings.... Today.. Tomorrow.. Forever
Beautiful person and amazing singer. Always have loved her and Jefferson Airplane. 72yr old Marine Vietnam Veteran.
Marie and Donny, because of their genuine innocence, ask the best questions. Grace's life, and The Osmond's lives, two opposite worlds. Great interview.
@Jeff Baker I like this interview as well.
They were not babes in the woods! Been in the music industry since childhood.

She comes off as someone considerably more "with it" and intelligent than the hosts.
+Rand Huso definitely!!!!
+Rand Huso Especially Donny Osmond who seemed to be really out of it.
The Osmonds got stoned right before the show: Grace had done so many drugs up to this point she is clinically high the rest of her life. Murder Was the Case That They Gave Me.
mk-ultra
That’s not too surprising, because when she was in her 20’s she was already more "with it" than 99% of America. Even when on acid.
She's incredulous at being on the FBI list as a security risk. LOL, but she WAS a security risk. She was going to spike the President's tea.
Great interview and that was a good book, I read that back in the early 2000s
She is a great interview, wouldn't you love to talk to her for days?
YES!
Indeed!
Good questions and use of the limited time.
Donny and Marie are focused as is Grace- which leads to an interesting interview.
How adorable she is! Im totally in love with this human being!!
Grace Slick was always very down to earth, in a crazy way, however.
Not only does she have a Great scene of humor, she's really down to earth and it shows! I know these interviews are a pain I'm the @$$ , but she is always so gracious. With the voice that sounds like no one else, she has paved the way for many female vocalist!

Two months ago, I met Paul Kantner in Hawaii 1969
That's one opportunity I wouldn't say no to. Grace Slick is a very interesting lady.
That is absurd and condescending. They are extremely talented long time veteran musicians and they showed nothing but respect to Grace.

Absolutely. They are all musicians and they respect each other’s talents. And they are not condescending in any way or judgemental.
I LOVE this chick! One of the voices of my youth.
21 years later than this and Jagger is still going haha. Grace is amazing, there should be more musicians like her and her fellows nowadays.
That was a great interview.

Great Show! THE ACID QUEEN and the MORMON'S
What a great interview. Grace is brilliant and even makes Donny and Marie seem almost human.
ALMOST....
@@UselessShyte what a nasty comment! So condescending!
I find the most surrealistic part just being that she is being interviewed by Donnie and Marie.
not really they all three worship the fallen one - thats how they got their fame wake up
Grace is a national treasure.
One of those chicks u never forget...
Grace Slick will always be the first lady of hard rock.
I love her...major crush on Slick and can sing like a mojo
Very enjoyable thank you
So charismatic and intelligent. She's just so fascinating
What a woman...WOW. There sits a lady who knows what its worth & how to handle it. She lived one hell of a life.
This IS a very smart articulate woman. Love Grace Slick, as far I'm concerned she STILL fantastic.
Clever women are a big turn on.......I love Grace
2nd and 3rd that!!
Wow to see how drastically she changed from this interview to another interview done in 2009 is mind boggling.
I like her, shoots straight, no BS.
Absolutely love her
Grace would have been perfect on the old 60s TV show Dark Shadows.
Beautiful grace sending love from UK xx

Mormons are usually respectful and cordial. To a fault.
Grace Slick is so awesome in virtually every interview ever.
Awesome interview
You guys were good interviewers.. You made grace look good, while generously probing her vast memories. Great job.
Amen! I agree completely. They knew who she was and I’m sure they listened to a lot of her music. They were above all else musicians who respect talented stars.
Does anyone even do down to earth interviews like this anymore?
Grace is so cool. She just tells it like it is. I wish she didn't have problems with alcohol though.
If I saw her, I’d be so starstruck OMG👍🏽👍🏽😃
Grace Slick with Donnie & Marie -- can anyone think of a meet-up that would have been more impossible to conceive of back in the old days???
that meeting is arranged by the networks for catching viewers and ratings
Honestly, Elvis & Nixon was a very close second! 🤣
@@davidc3857 Yeah, but that was Elvis's drug-fueled fever dream that came true almost by accident. They actually PLANNED this one!
Did anyone else catch the "I'm just sorry I didn't... know him better ;)" when talking about Jimi? LMFAOOOOOOO
Gracie is so smart, she's amazing!
Grace is BRILLIANT!!!
I still think Grace slick is beautiful , she naturally aged and she is still very gorgeous to me
Nobody had the voice she had.
She is in his 60:s here. Looks really good.

Your comment perfectly sums up this interview. Thank you!
Wish I could give you a thousand thumbs up 👍
The roulette wheel is the greatest analogy I've ever heard.
Ahh... a true legend that defined rock music, and she was hot and smart as hell too...
this is a great interview indeed...
