...when "Somebody To Love" was being played on WLS radio in Chicago, and Grace is my favorite female vocalist ever...of any musical genre.

The singer in your post is real good, but she's not Grace.

The other thing that occurs to me about your post is that Jorma will be 84 later this year.

How did that happen so fast!?

...that says it was recorded on Jorma's 75th birthday in November 2015 - now almost 9 years ago.

So, if my basic math is correct, he'll be 84 in November.

Jack must be getting up there too.

Back around 1974, I saw Hot Tuna in Chicago at the "acoustically perfect" Auditorium Theater.

After that show, my ears rang for several months.

Actually, my ears are still ringing, probably from playing in alt/punk bands for 40 years.
