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 22 of the series covers the eventful one-year period—from Bark’s release in September 1971 to the band’s final show in September 1972—in the style of an audiobook. 

Here are just a few of the many things discussed in this episode of Discograffiti:

• The critical response to Bark;
• The changing vibe of the rock audience in the early 1970s;
• The launch of Jefferson Airplane’s own imprint, Grunt;
• The insane requests of Grunt artist Reality D. Blipcrotch;
• Paul Kantner & Grace Slick’s Bolinas period;
• Goodbye Joey Covington…hello John Barbara and David Freiberg;
• And Hot Tuna release their first studio album, Burgers, and the Airplane release their final studio album, Long John Silver.
