    Trivia Quiz

    I came across an interesting tidbit last night in Dave Marsh's book about the 1,001 best rock/soul singles...

    Who attempted to produce around 200 takes of Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit" before abandoning the project and starting their own band?

    (BTW, Marvin Gaye's "I Hear It Through The Grapevine" was the choice as the #1 single of ALL TIME!!!!)

    Hint--the clue to the link lies in the CITY where the band was formed....and the previous incarnation of the band before it became Jefferson Airplane. :D

    The CITY was, of course, San Francisco.

    The band was originally titled Great Society.

    The producer who unsuccessfully tried to record "White Rabbit" when Grace Slick was their lead singer.....

    Sly Stone.

    Quit producing and formed Sly & The Family Stone.
