Grace Slick Trivia Questions
1. Which Grace Slick composition is based on a story by Lewis Carroll?

Answer: White Rabbit

"White Rabbit" is based on Lewis Carrol's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland"(1865). It was on 'Jefferson Airplane's' album 'Surrealistic Pillow' in 1967. Many of the images in the book are included in the song; Alice's change in size after ingesting an unknown liquid, the hookah-smoking caterpillar, the Red Queen, White Knight and the Dormouse are all included, and tied in to the prevalent drug references of the era. Slick has mentioned in interviews that the song was in response to parents asking why their children were taking drugs.
