If you are sticking with the 50 yr theme it would be the jefferson airplane version with Grace at the 30 second mark - not the 7 minute mark.

I can recall when i was about 15 (1969) I was really into Jefferson Airplane and was fascinated with Jorma Kaukonen. I thought it was a really kick ass name.

I seem to remember it as "OK", not so much as "great" but they certainly were creative and in some ways ground-breaking. I don't know if they ever got to the point of caring whether Jimmy cracked corn.

I'm younger than you, maybe that explains it.

"Teach Your Children" featuring Kathy Mattea, Suzy Boggus, and Allison Krauss. CSNY should have done it so well.

I saw Arlo live in the early 1970s. When he played the first few bars of
Alice's Restaurant people started applauding. He stopped and said, paraphrased, "That was the problem with Nixon. We clapped before we heard the song."

OK, so a 7-year old playing drums and pretending to be in a rock band might be cute. A 7-year old really playing drums for AC effin' DC doing "Dirty Deeds" is incredible. And an unforgettable life experience.

Apparently being a talented pre-adolescent drummer isn't so unusual.
