(...with the implied agreement that, in return, you’ll subscribe to our Patreon to tune in to the rest of the series!) Host Dave Gebroe talks with legendary Jefferson Airplane bassist Jack Casady about the classic psych band’s entire recorded output (for over 20 hours total). Feed Your Head: The Great Jefferson Airplane Deep Dive is a full-blown 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.

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;
* 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.
