** A lot of it was, by everyone's admission, though they later acknowledged that substance abuse started interfering with their performances.
** "White Rabbit" in particular is obviously inspired by hallucinogenic drug use.
** ''After Bathing at Baxter's'' seems like a WordSaladTitle, until you learn that "Baxter" was the band's code name for LSD.

* FaceOfTheBand: Marty Balin, who'd already released some solo singles and was a popular figure in the Bay Area FolkMusic scene, was this at the beginning. Grace Slick would eventually take over the role, partly from the novelty of [[TheSmurfettePrinciple being the only woman in the band]], plus the fact that she sang their two biggest hits.

* PopCultureUrbanLegends: China Kantner, the daughter of Paul Kantner and Grace Slick, was not originally named '''god''' (with a lowercase "g", "because we are humble"). Grace joked about giving the child that name, first mentioned in a ''Magazine/RollingStone'' article while she was pregnant, then later supposedly to a nurse at the hospital (who took the {{Troll}}ing seriously and reported it to the media), but China Wing Kantner is the name on the birth certificate (Wing being Grace's maiden surname).
