Which 1967 Jefferson Airplane album featured Grace Slick and helped launch their long career?

• A. Surrealistic Pillow
• B. After Bathing at Baxter's
• C. Volunteers
• D. Blows Against the Empire

Answer: (A)

Grace Slick’s arrival gave Jefferson Airplane a bold, commanding vocal presence that helped define the band’s sound. The 1967 album that most clearly showcases her and launched their enduring career is Surrealistic Pillow. It features her on lead vocals for some of the band’s most famous tracks, including White Rabbit and Somebody to Love, whose runaway popularity brought the group into the mainstream and established them as a defining force in psychedelic rock. While After Bathing at Baxter's also came out in 1967, it’s seen as more of an experimental step and didn’t have the same broad breakthrough impact as Surrealistic Pillow. The remaining titles are from later years and don’t fit the clue about this pivotal 1967 album with Grace Slick.
