just_tomТаких барышень уже очень давно не делают:
Боевая барышня. Рисовала картины, написала кучу хитов для Jefferson Airplane и Jefferson Starship. Как в том поколении - наркотики (её звали The Acid Queen), алкоголь. Полиция её не очень любила:
Slick was arrested at least four times for what she has referred to as "TUI" ("talking under the influence") and "drunk mouth". One incident occurred when a police officer encountered her sitting against a tree trunk in the backwoods of Marin County, California, drinking wine, eating bread, and reading poetry. The officer asked what she was doing; she gave a sarcastic response and was arrested and jailed. She was arrested in 1994 for assault with a deadly weapon after pointing an unloaded gun at a police officer. She alleged that the officer had come onto her property without explanation.
Слава богу, до сих пор жива, ей 86 лет.
"White Rabbit" - одна из самых ранних песен Грейс Слик, в ней используются образы из романов Льюиса Кэрролла - "Алиса в Стране чудес" и "Алиса в Зазеркалье", где происходило изменение размера после приема таблеток или выпивания неизвестной жидкости. Слик утверждала, что песня была задумана как тревожный сигналом для родителей, которые читают своим детям такие романы, а потом удивляются, почему их дети употребляют наркотики.
White Rabbit
One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small
And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all
Go ask Alice
When she's ten feet tall
And if you go chasing rabbits
And you know you're going to fall
Tell 'em a hookah-smoking caterpillar
Has given you the call
Call Alice
When she was just small
When the men on the chessboard
Get up and tell you where to go
And you've just had some kind of mushroom
And your mind is moving low
Go ask Alice
I think she'll know
When logic and proportion
Have fallen sloppy dead
And the White Knight is talking backwards
And the Red Queen's off with her head
Remember what the dormouse said
Feed your head
Feed your head
