Jefferson Airplane: White Rabbit

White Rabbit is a psychedelic rock song from Jefferson Airplane's 1967 hit album Surrealistic Pillow, also released as a single, peaking at #8 on the Billboard Hot 100 in that form.

For Grace Slick and others in the '60s, drugs were an inevitable part of mind-expanding and social experimentation. With its enigmatic lyrics, White Rabbit became one of the first songs to sneak drug references past censors on the radio.

the video is no longer available.

try this one from woodstock: www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xhYk9PEmXA

so earthy and raw and powerful...

wish this song was longer, like 10 minutes - it could have been anthemic, like Let It Be or Tommy.
