THE FULL STORY BEHIND RANDY CALIFORNIA & SPIRIT (PART 7: SON OF SPIRIT, FARTHER ALONG, & FUTURE GAMES) (Ep. 247B)

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. Host Dave Gebroe talks with Spirit biographer Ryan Gabrinetti about the classic psych band’s entire recorded output, with commentary, stories, and star ratings for every release. Part 7 covers the wildly prolific and diverse years at the end of Spirit’s Mercury Records era, which included a reunion of the classic era line-up and the absolute peak of Randy California’s loner recording weirdness.

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

  • The unquenchable spiritual search of Randy California;
  • How the original line-up managed to reform;
  • The particular kind of slick that occurred when Spirit veered into mid-1970s slickness territory;
  • The reunion’s sudden, disastrous finale, a single moment that killed off any future prospects for the original line-up;
  • The insane whiplash about-face from Farther Along to Future Games;
  • And an in-depth deep dive on every song off Spirit’s Son Of Spirit, Farther Along, and Future Games.
