Seasons - Grace Slick

Grace Slick is an American singer/songwriter, who was one of the lead singers of Jefferson Airplane. In 1980 she released a solo album entitled 'Dreams', and 'Seasons' was the first single to be drawn from that album. It reached no. 12 in the Dutch Top 40, and as a result of that I knew it. When I bought this single it was probably because of that fact: the bargain bin didn't always contain the most attractive singles and sometimes they were all virtually unknown to me.

To my young ears this song must have sounded mysterious. I didn't quite understand the lyrics, but Grace's performance was gripping nonetheless. Almost thirty years on, this is still a great song.

My collection: 7" single no. 64
Found: Wouters, Den Haag, 1980
Cost: 3 guilders
Tracks: 'Seasons' / 'Angel of night'
