SPIRIT (PART 8: POTATOLAND II, EURO-AMERICAN, & THE 13TH DREAM) (Ep. 248B)

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 8 covers arguably the last blast of true creative inspiration that exploded out of Randy California.

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

A cherry-picking overview of Randy’s second attempt to launch his solo career, a period covered by the 4-CD Euro-American box set, which includes a handful of buried gems you’d certainly otherwise never learn about;
The events that led to the exhumation of the Potatoland project;
Why, even though it’s not Potatoland proper, it’s arguably just as amazing and important for entirely different reasons;
How Spirit spent their second and final classic line-up reunion;
Why 1984 is such a landmark, signpost year for Spirit;
And an in-depth deep dive on every song off Spirit’s Potatoland and The 13th Dream, plus Randy’s solo album Euro-American.
