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 18 of the series features Jack and I doing a deep, deep dive on the songs off the band’s final masterpiece of the 1960s, Volunteers.

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

• Jack’s love for the Airplane’s iconic live album, Bless Its Pointed Little Head;
• Whether the band got behind Paul Kantner’s politics of the period;
• The very direct influence that leftist propaganda culture had on the record;
• The Grateful Dead song that shared the lick from “We Can Be Together”;
• The essential greatness of Nicky Hopkins;
• Grace’s aggressive sexual politics on “Hey Frederick”;
• And an in-depth, track-by-track deep dive on side one of Volunteers.
