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 32 of the series is the Grand Finale, detailing the 1989 reunion album and tour, plus an epilogue detailing the band’s happily ever after. It includes Jack Casady’s final appearance of the series.

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

How the reunion ever wound up happening in the first place;

The new substance issues that had come to the fore for the band members by 1989;

The business tensions that dogged the making of the record;

The release of Starship’s Love Among The Cannibals right in the midst of the Airplane’s reunion; 

The wild skirmish that left Mickey Thomas brutally beaten;

Whatever happened to Starship;

Jack’s overview of the self-titled 1989 reunion album;

And an epilogue detailing the remaining years of Jefferson Airplane’s various band members.

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 31 of the series is a CRUCIAL EPISODE in understanding the inner workings of a once-countercultural band that at this point, twenty years into their career, would do practically anything for a hit. This 90-minute interview with the producer of Starship’s Knee Deep In The Hoopla is probably the most important piece of the puzzle in understanding how this band realized their hidden goals, and then achieved them, and whether or not it was worth achieving them in the end.  

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

His impressively varied jazz background;

The slew of Frank Zappa albums on which he appears—62 total!;

Whether or not he’s actually an Airplane fan;

Grace’s wildly contradictory statements about “We Built This City”;

How he finished off their transformation from Jefferson Airplane to Starship;

His feelings toward Knee Deep In The Hoopla versus the follow-up record, No Protection;

And an epiphanic outpouring of every single little thing I’ve learned over the 32 episodes of this series, as the seemingly un-align-able bands Jefferson Airplane and Starship are brought into incredibly clear focus…as the very same people, just twenty years down the road.

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, old friends Ariel Pink (nee Rosenberg) and host Dave Gebroe hash out the timeline of their relationship and take a fearless gaze into the heart of cancel culture, in an attempt to figure out what the hell happened, and whether or not it even matters that it did.

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

The story of my relationship with Ariel;

The insane live show I produced for Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery;

Whether or not he got cancelled on purpose;

The obstacles he’s now facing post-cancellation as an artist; 

Why he thought being called a genius was an insult;

And how his greatest album, Pom Pom, came to be.

It includes long-form interviews, commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release. 

Part 30 of the series features David Freiberg fielding some very difficult questions, as he gives his impressions of Jefferson Starship’s Eighties era, from 1979’s Freedom At Point Zero to his unceremonious exit during the sessions for Starship’s Knee Deep In The Hoopla. 

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

Who actually titled his song “Jane”;

Whether or not there was trepidation about Grace rejoining the band;

His feelings about Jefferson Starship’s music in the Eighties;

If the name change to Starship had a deeper significance to him;

What David did for the 20 years between leaving and rejoining Jefferson Starship;

The rumors behind his firing;

The fallout between David and Paul Kantner;

And an overview of the four albums released by the 1980s iteration of Jefferson Starship: Freedom At Point Zero, Modern Times, Winds Of Change, and Nuclear Furniture, plus Starship’s Knee Deep In The Hoopla.

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 29 of the series is an audiobook-style expose of how a band whose ideals were once so crucial to their very existence could end up disconnecting entirely from their roots and releasing an album like Knee Deep In The Hoopla. 

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

Paul kidnaps the Nuclear Furniture master tapes;

The split in the band that causes a civil war;

Paul & David Freiberg’s exits from the band;

The formation of KBC;

Jorma becomes a heroin addict;

The complete story of “We Built This City”;

And an overview of Nuclear Furniture, but a seriously deep deep-dive on Knee Deep In The Hoopla.
