SPIRIT (PART 5: POTATOLAND) (Ep. 246)

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 5 details the almost-too-crazy-to-be-believed tale behind one of the most mythically nuts concept albums ever dreamt up.

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

  • The origin of the Potatoland project;
  • The massive public uprising that practically forced Randy California to exhume the project several years later;
  • The 2019 Esoteric Recordings Potatoland box set that has to be one of the ten most essential reissue purchases of all time;
  • The live radio shows during that era which Randy dared to play on LSD;
  • And an in-depth deep dive on every song off Spirit’s Adventures of Kaptain Kopter & Commander Cassidy in Potato Land, the 1973 LP that was rejected by Epic Records.
