SPIRIT (PART 3: TWELVE DREAMS OF DR. SARDONICUS) (Ep. 242B)

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 3 covers Spirit’s most fondly remembered LP, Twelve Dreams Of Dr. Sardonicus, which also became the commercial high point of the band. An FM underground classic created after the band had parted ways with producer Lou Adler, it has since served as the introductory keyhole for most of the band’s fans.

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

  • A discussion about the single that served as the band’s final release of the 1960s;
  • How Neil Young’s producer David Briggs modified Spirit’s sound to showcase the band in a different light;
  • The fights happening in the band at the time, not to mention the massive accident that Randy California incurred during the recording of Sardonicus;
  • Whether Randy’s brain injury contributed to the boundless sense of creativity he experienced for many years to come;
  • And an in-depth deep dive on every song off Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus.
