I fell in love with Grace Slick’s voice and song delivery when she was with Jefferson Airplane and, specifically, with her rendition of “White Rabbit”.Β I later bought her solo album (“Dreams”) not knowing quite what to expect, and was very pleasantly surprised.
I love the structure of this song, in that it starts off with simple piano supporting her voice. Light percussion is eventually introduced until around 1:40 when a solid drum beat joins the fray! That drum becomes stronger as the song progresses and, just after 3:30, it almost dominates for a while, until the song starts winding down to finish after which my feelings are … “Wow!”
“Full Moon Man” is well … based on the lyrics and musical arrangement (noting the climax at around 3:30) … an exercise in musical seduction and ultimate exhaustion! Enjoy!
Great song.

I want night to come now, sit around a fire and gaze at the moon.
I enjoyed the intensity of the song and the drums. Used to hear drums beating quite often in our house, π

Grace Slick was a very interesting person in a very interesting age in music. I always liked her moxie. Wasn’t easy being female back then.

By all accounts, she was quite the “free spirit” back then!
