Host Dave Gebroe talks with legendary Jefferson Airplane bassist Jack Casady about the classic psych band’s entire recorded output (for 20+ hours total), with commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release. Feed Your Head: The Great Jefferson Airplane Deep Dive is a full-blown 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.

Part 1 is the first part of my first interview with Jack, in which we cover his life story all the way up to the Summer of Love, just as Jefferson Airplane started making their third LP, After Bathing At Baxter’s.

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

* The foundational, near-death experience with which he dealt as a child;
* Who almost got the bass gig in the Airplane before it was proposed to Jack;
* The early gigs and the making of the band’s debut record;
* The profound growth the band experienced between the debut and Surrealistic Pillow;
* Jack’s frank thoughts on free love;
* And the very beginning of the Baxter’s lunacy.
