Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. Feed Your Head: The Great Jefferson Airplane Deep Dive is an audio documentary that was consciously crafted to act as the ultimate repository of fact and opinion on one of the greatest bands to ever walk the face of the earth. It includes long-form interviews, commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release. 

Part 4 of the series covers the period from August 1965 to August 1966—that is, from their very first gig to the release of their debut album—in the style of an audiobook documentary.

Here are just a few of the many things discussed in this episode of Discograffiti:

Grace Slick, Skip Spence, and Spencer Dryden enter the picture;

Members begin to play musical chairs as they edge closer and closer to the classic line-up;

Their early audition for Phil Spector;

All the record labels the Airplane turned down, and the one they did not;

Jack Casady flies out to San Francisco to try out for the band;

The stylistic affectation that initially did not endear Jack to Paul Kantner;

The wheeling and dealing of their first manager, notorious shyster Matthew Katz;

And the trials and tribulations behind the making of their debut album, Jefferson Airplane Takes Off.

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. Host Dave Gebroe talks with podcast OG Joe Kennedy about the classic psych band’s entire recorded output, with commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release, including long-form interviews with both Johnny Echols and the members of Baby Lemonade, who’ve served as Love now for coming up on 35 years. 7 & 7 & 7 Is: The Definitive 21-Episode Story Of Arthur Lee & Love was consciously crafted to act as the ultimate repository of fact and opinion on one of the greatest bands to ever walk the face of the earth, the almighty Love. 

Part 15 covers a hard-partying era during the early 1970s when Arthur’s life started to spin wildly out of control.

Here are just a few of the many things that Joe discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:

The two months during which Arthur had a major label deal, and what he did with that opportunity;

Whether or not the music created during that time was even intended for human ears (or any other species, for that matter);

Arthur’s transition into shooting cocaine;

That time he called the cops…on himself;

A new slew of material that trumpeted his new vegetarian lifestyle;

Arthur’s continuing insistence on sing-song vengeance tunes written for backstabbing friends;

And an in-depth, track-by-track deep dive on every song off Dear You (a.k.a. Love Lost) and Arthur’s solo debut Vindicator.

Feed Your Head: The Great Jefferson Airplane Deep Dive is an audio documentary that was consciously crafted to act as the ultimate repository of fact and opinion on one of the greatest bands to ever walk the face of the earth, the almighty Jefferson Airplane. It includes long-form interviews, commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release.

Here are just a few of the many things discussed in this episode of Discograffiti:

Marty Balin’s early music dalliances;

Piecing together his dream band, one member at a time;

The unbelievable first original that they performed;

Marty’s genius plan to foist his band on San Francisco with a true splash;

Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady: the origin story of a 70-year musical love affair;

The incredibly rare first recording by Jack & Jorma;

How Jorma was seduced into the Airplane;

The true origin of the band’s name;

The bargaining chip used by their first manager Matthew Katz to convince the group that he was their man; 

And their public debut as a band.

Part 14 covers the Hendrix-heavy moves of the False Start era, as Arthur’s Love greeted the new decade with his spirited take on the funk-inflected hard rock of the time, yet another large stylistic move away from the Forever Changes era that his fans so desperately craved.

Here are just a few of the many things that Joe discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:

The rekindling of Arthur’s friendship with his old buddy Jimi Hendrix only months before his death;

Details about the session during which Jimi joined Love, and what was played;

The major similarities—and glaring differences—between Arthur & Jimi;

The band that Arthur and Jimi were supposedly planning on assembling before his untimely passing;

The crumbling of this next line-up, as the substance imbibing begin to gain steam in Arthur’s life;

That time Arthur got arrested for zapping people with a cattle prod;

And an in-depth, track-by-track deep dive on every song off False Start.

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. Host Dave Gebroe talks with legendary Jefferson Airplane bassist Jack Casady about the classic psych band’s entire recorded output (for over a dozen hours total), with commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release. Feed Your Head: The Great Jefferson Airplane Deep Dive was consciously crafted to act as the ultimate repository of fact and opinion on one of the greatest bands to ever walk the face of the earth, the almighty Jefferson Airplane. As a celebration of the kick-off to what is going to be one hell of a wild ride, THIS ENTIRE EPISODE WILL BE AVAILABLE FREE OF CHARGE ON DISCOGRAFFITI’S PUBLIC STREAM! (...with the implied agreement that, in return, you’ll subscribe to our Patreon to tune in to the rest of the series!) 

Going in to this interview, I was under the impression that this might be the only time I’d ever get with Jack. However, after he experienced the legendary “Discograffiti effect,” Jack generously afforded me carte blanche to talk at great length about each of the Airplane’s records. Part 2 is from my first interview with Jack, in which we cover his life story from the Summer of Love up to the late 1980s Airplane reunion.

Here are just a few of the many things that Jack discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:

Monterey Pop, Woodstock, & Altamont;

How he rolled with Paul Kantner’s more revolutionary material;

The details behind how Jack wound up playing on Jimi Hendrix’s “Voodoo Chile”;

How speed skating may have saved his life during the dissolution of Jefferson Airplane;

The wilderness years, during which Jack did some of his most vital work as bassist for the San Francisco punk band SVT;

His true feelings on the 1989 Airplane reunion;

And making After Bathing At Baxter’s, Crown Of Creation, Bless Its Pointed Little Head, Volunteers, Bark, Long John Silver, and Jefferson Airplane.

Dave's Show Notes are available at a separate link for Lieutenants & up.
