Here are just a few of the many things that Baby Lemonade discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: Just how deep their love ran for Love’s music previous to crossing paths with Arthur Lee; What they were on track to accomplish before being swallowed up by Arthur to become the new iteration of Love; Their big break moment; How Baby Lemonade compared to the other members of Love who’ve floated in and out over the years; The various red flags that piled up over time and how they dealt with them; And their collective assessment of their recorded legacy as Love.   CONNECT Join our Soldiers of Sound Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1839109176272153 Patreon:  https://www.patreon.com/discograffiti Podfollow: ⁠⁠https://podfollow.com/1592182331⁠⁠ YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClyaQCdvDelj5EiKj6IRLhw Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/discograffitipod/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Discograffiti/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Discograffiti Order the Digital version of the METAL MACHINE MUZAK 2xLP (feat.

Here are just a few of the many things that Joe discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The Origin Story: how Baby Lemonade wound up crossing paths and then working with Arthur Lee; What spurned the unfortunate early exit of Baby Lemonade bassist Henry Liu; Their first recording session together, and why it was an immediate red flag for the new backing band; The facts behind the evening that landed Arthur in prison; Why a man named Gene Kraut was almost entirely responsible for the rehabilitation of Arthur’s reputation; The new batch of Arthur Lee material, and the central conundrum it posed; The big comeback falls apart during their homecoming show at Royce Hall; And an overview of Arthur & Baby Lemonade’s “Girl On Fire” single.   CONNECT Join our Soldiers of Sound Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1839109176272153 Patreon:  https://www.patreon.com/discograffiti Podfollow: ⁠⁠https://podfollow.com/1592182331⁠⁠ YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClyaQCdvDelj5EiKj6IRLhw Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/discograffitipod/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Discograffiti/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Discograffiti Order the Digital version of the METAL MACHINE MUZAK 2xLP (feat.

Here are just a few of the many things that Joe discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: Arthur’s less than triumphant reunion with Bryan MacLean for a one-off live show; The unfortunate double function his bandmates at the time may have served, to Arthur’s probable detriment; Arthur finally exhumes the sole outtake from Forever Changes and commits it to wax; Inarguably the worst remake from Arthur’s back catalog, a misfire on a level almost incomprehensibly misguided; The arrests start to pile up; Arthur starts taking business advice from mobsters; Enter Baby Lemonade; And an in-depth, track-by-track deep dive on every song off 1981’s Arthur Lee and 1992’s Arthur Lee And Love.

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, the almighty Jefferson Airplane. It includes long-form interviews, commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release.  Part 3 of the series covers the very early years of the band in the style of an audiobook documentary, as the Airplane’s original visionary Marty Balin seeks out the best of the best and winds up pulling together a band that will soon change the course of music history. Here are just a few of the many things discussed in this episode of Discograffiti: Marty Balin’s early music dalliances; Piecing together his dream band, one member at a time; The unbelievable first original that they performed; Marty’s genius plan to foist his band on San Francisco with a true splash; Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady: the origin story of a 70-year musical love affair; The incredibly rare first recording by Jack & Jorma; How Jorma was seduced into the Airplane; The true origin of the band’s name; The bargaining chip used by their first manager Matthew Katz to convince the group that he was their man;  And their public debut as a band.   CONNECT Join our Soldiers of Sound Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1839109176272153 Patreon:  https://www.patreon.com/discograffiti Podfollow: ⁠⁠https://podfollow.com/1592182331⁠⁠ YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClyaQCdvDelj5EiKj6IRLhw Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/discograffitipod/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Discograffiti/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Discograffiti Order the Digital version of the METAL MACHINE MUZAK 2xLP (feat.

So it was exactly six years ago this month that primary SOS host Rudy Fischmann started work on an ill-advised project— a rock opera. It was ill-advised because Rudy is actually living with brain cancer, and lacks enough left hand coordination to actually play any instruments traditionally, nor the energy. Still, he’s managed to pull it off with the help of 60 other people from 12 nations around the globe. It may not be major musical history, but it’s an absolute first of its kind.  So minor music history? The whole thing serves as a fundraiser for two great cancer charities… both very closely associated with rock opera kings The Who. We’re talking about Teen Cancer America and the Teenage Cancer Trust in the UK.  So check out this podcast to learn more about this big, dumb idea that became a brilliant reality, and some of the people who helped make it possible.  To learn more specifics on the rock opera and its fundraising component, visit: https://www.episode18.com It's simple, really: the music is free, but make a donation to either charity and you're entitled (if you want) to digital downloads, a printed booklet of liner notes, and a lyric/story script. Rudy's not looking to fill your life with clutter... just to get you to take a listen to his music, and for you to share some love with teens going through cancer. All music is available on most music streaming apps and YouTube. Just search for “Episode 18” by That Cancer Life.

Host Dave Gebroe talks with podcast OG Joe Kennedy about the classic psych band’s entire recorded output, with commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release, including long-form interviews with both Johnny Echols and the members of Baby Lemonade, who’ve served as Love now for coming up on 35 years. 7 & 7 & 7 Is: The Definitive 21-Episode Story Of Arthur Lee & Love 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, the almighty Love.  Part 9 is a track-by-track exploration of every single song on Love’s undisputed masterpiece Forever Changes, which only a fool would argue is not the towering peak of the band’s career. Here, then, is everything you could ever want to know about the songs on this perfectly conceived record. Here are just a few of the many things that Joe discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The incredible and tragic story of the trumpet soloist on the opening track, “Alone Again Or”; The jaw-dropping story behind Johnny Echols’ double-tracked guitar solo on “A House Is Not A Motel”; The only Forever Changes track that was actually a holdover from Da Capo; The very real possibility that Arthur Lee may have actually invented rap music; The one Forever Changes outtake; And an in-depth, track-by-track deep dive on every song off Forever Changes.

It is often referred to as the greatest album of all time, especially in the U.K., where in 2002 members of Parliament signed a motion declaring Love’s 1967 release "the greatest album of all time". Here are just a few of the many things that Joe discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: How drugs factored into things during that time, and which drugs they were; What separated the orchestrations intended for this record from the strings on all other rock records up to this point; The misunderstood notions about who is playing what and the band members’ involvement in the process of creating the songs; Whether or not Forever Changes was intended at the outset to be a double album; Just how things got off on the wrong foot on the first day of sessions; The extent of The Wrecking Crew’s involvement in playing on the record; Why exactly they turned down Monterey; The man responsible for sequencing the album, as well as the one song he cut from the track list; And the background story which begat its classic title.

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. April Fools! You may think the joke here is that we’ve made an episode on the California Raisins backstory, but in fact…the joke is that you think this episode is a joke. This touching expose of the raisin industry is actually a disguised Discograffiti episode about the career trajectory of the great Buddy Miles (Electric Flag, Buddy Miles Express, Band Of Gypsys). Host Dave Gebroe teams with OG Discograffiti host Joe Kennedy, and together they create a whoopee-cushioned joy buzzer of an April Fools’ gag that succeeds on every level imaginable. Here are just a few of the many things that Joe discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The issues within the raisin industry which provoked the creation of the California Raisins; The father of Claymation, who lent his talents to bringing these shriveled, anthropomorphized snacks to life; A full career overview of Buddy Miles; The crazed extent of the merchandising involved with this phenomenon; The mysterious, off-label fourth California Raisins record; And a not-very-in-depth, extremely shallow dive on The California Raisins discography!

An argument can be made that the growth displayed in the gap between record one and two is the most mind-boggling quantum leap in music history. Here are just a few of the many things that Joe discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The making of the “7 & 7 Is” single, who it was written about, and how it changed sonically from its original conception; How The Doors absolutely idolized Love, but why Arthur helping them get a deal with Elektra wound up biting his band in the ass; The initial conception of their second LP, before things veered off into a whole other terrain; The great lost Arthur Lee classic that he gave away to a rival group; The formation of the briefly-lived septet iteration of Love; The female wedge that drove herself between Arthur Lee and Bryan MacLean; An examination of the largest qualitative Side 1 / Side 2 disparity in music history; And an in-depth, track-by-track deep dive on every song off Da Capo.

Host Dave Gebroe talks with podcast OG Joe Kennedy about the classic psych band’s entire recorded output, with commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release, including long-form interviews with both Johnny Echols and the members of Baby Lemonade, who’ve served as Love now for coming up on 35 years. 7 & 7 & 7 Is: The Definitive 21-Episode Story Of Arthur Lee & Love 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, the almighty Love.    Part 3 covers Love’s self-titled debut Elektra LP: the background story, the making of the record, and a song-by-song overview. Snotty garage punk arguably never came with so much built-in replay value.   Here are just a few of the many things that Joe discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:   The first man to jump ship from Love, and the spectacular success he surprisingly wound up achieving; Why Don Conka needed replacing, and the psychological dynamic set in place with Snoopy Pfisterer’s arrival in the band; The band’s Elektra contract, which set a new standard for legal sloppiness; The heated songwriting rivalry set in place between Arthur Lee and Bryan MacLean; How Love’s version of “My Little Red Book” wound up veering off from Burt Bacharach’s intended chord sequence; And an in-depth deep dive on every song off Love.

Here are just a few of the many things that Johnny discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: What Arthur was like as a kid; His relationship with Billy Preston, and the time they saw The Beatles together; Johnny’s holy shit moment of creative epiphany; Whether or not he thinks Hendrix borrowed from his own early showboating style; The realities of Love’s compromised touring strategy; And Johnny’s ongoing relationship with ex-Love member Bobby Beausoleil.

SOS 250a: A Conversation with David Gedge of The Wedding Present and Cinerama Previewing His Upcoming Tour and Our Epic Deep Dive into his Many Songwriting Eras And yes, the episode title is needlessly long in tribute to the early days of David Gedge giving songs ridiculously long titles.  Anyway, Paul Kelly of the great Indie band, The Martial Arts, and Rudy were just minding their own business recording their thoughts on David Gedge for a series of episodes about his great and varied songwriting when SOS friend Patrick Tape Fleming of the greatest Indie bands Poison Control Center and Gloom Balloon arranged for Paul and Rudy to talk to Gedge himself. Naturally, this was not an opportunity two fanboys could not resist.  This discussion centers mostly on The Weddoe’s “Seamonsters”, since Gedge will be touring the US and Europe to celebrate that release’s *gulp* 35th anniversary. Think of this episode as a special preview of the proper “David Gedge Series” that starts next month, and motivation to get tickets to go see The Wedding Present perform “Seamonsters” in its beautiful entirety along with many more TWP classics.  To see where The Wedding Present is playing and how to get tickets, visit: https://www.scopitones.co.uk/forthcomingconcerts Paul Kelly is the artist behind the excellent indie band The Martial Arts.

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 9 covers Randy California’s creatively listless final years, which produced a handful of problematic records with terrific cherrypicking moments…before he tragically lost his life. Here are just a few of the many things that Ryan discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The most surprisingly ambitious project on which Randy worked during his last decade; Details surrounding the long slide down in Randy’s relationship with Spirit; The legitimately tragic and valiant death of Randy California; Noteworthy posthumous releases; Spirit’s arc, as determined by Dave; Our top 3 Spirit albums, and our least favorite; And an in-depth deep dive on some of the songs off Rapture In The Chambers, Sea Dream, Tent Of Miracles, and California Blues.

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, we feature the next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series: it’s Chuck’s chat with legendary songwriter/singer Jimmy Webb.  This beautiful little interview serves as the perfect palate cleanser before Discograffiti launches into our unprecedented 21-episode Love Series, which kicks off next week. Winning the Grammy Award for Song of the Year at the age of 21, Webb has written multiple platinum-selling songs, including ”Up, Up and Away”, “By The Time I Get to Phoenix”, “MacArthur Park”, “Wichita Lineman”, “Worst That Could Happen”, “Galveston”, and “All I Know”. He had successful collaborations with Glen Campbell, Michael Feinstein, Linda Ronstadt, The 5th Dimension, country supergroup The Highwaymen, The Supremes, Art Garfunkel, Richard Harris, and Carly Simon. He’s the only artist ever to receive Grammy Awards for music, lyrics and orchestration. Here’s just a few of the many things that Jimmy discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: What George Martin had told Jimmy about Pet Sounds; The importance of multi-track recording for works like Pet Sounds to even exist; Magic Alex and the freeing possibilities of recording potential during the 1960s, which we now take for granted; Jimmy’s favorite song off Pet Sounds; And the fascinating story about Jimmy’s prospective project with Frank Sinatra, which unfortunately never got off the ground.

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 8 covers arguably the last blast of true creative inspiration that exploded out of Randy California. Here are just a few of the many things that Ryan discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: A cherry-picking overview of Randy’s second attempt to launch his solo career, a period covered by the 4-CD Euro-American box set, which includes a handful of buried gems you’d certainly otherwise never learn about; The events that led to the exhumation of the Potatoland project; Why, even though it’s not Potatoland proper, it’s arguably just as amazing and important for entirely different reasons; How Spirit spent their second and final classic line-up reunion; Why 1984 is such a landmark, signpost year for Spirit; And an in-depth deep dive on every song off Spirit’s Potatoland and The 13th Dream, plus Randy’s solo album Euro-American.

Discograffiti’s Wild Tales: The Graham Nash Interview Series tackles every last release the great Graham Nash ever had a hand in creating, including CSN/Y, C&N, and his solo career, detailing a history almost too wild to be believed.  Here are just a few of the many things that Graham discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The infuriating experience with Crosby that inspired David Geffen to not only fire CSNY, but to dissolve his entire music management business; The final recorded studio appearance of Jerry Garcia’s pedal steel guitar; The start of the recorded CSNY in-fighting swipes in song; The final appearance of PERRO on Graham’s records, with The Dead acting as C&N’s backing band; The story behind the writing of Graham’s hit single, “Immigration Man”; The only single Graham ever partnered up with Neil Young to do, as a duo; And an in-depth deep dive on every song off Graham Nash David Crosby.

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 7 covers the wildly prolific and diverse years at the end of Spirit’s Mercury Records era, which included a reunion of the classic era line-up and the absolute peak of Randy California’s loner recording weirdness. Here are just a few of the many things that Ryan discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The unquenchable spiritual search of Randy California; How the original line-up managed to reform; The particular kind of slick that occurred when Spirit veered into mid-1970s slickness territory; The reunion’s sudden, disastrous finale, a single moment that killed off any future prospects for the original line-up; The insane whiplash about-face from Farther Along to Future Games; And an in-depth deep dive on every song off Spirit’s Son Of Spirit, Farther Along, and Future Games.

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, we feature the very special next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series: it’s Chuck’s chat with legendary producer, songwriter, musician, and self-described “rock and roll creep” and Lord of Garbage Kim Fowley. He has been described as "one of the most colorful characters in the annals of rock & roll", and that is truly putting it mildly. Although admittedly he is always in rare form (I can confirm, having had a relationship with him toward the end of his life), he is in the rarest of rare forms in this interview, barely allowing Chuck to get a word in edgewise. The dynamic is delightful right from the off.  He is the single common denominator that links “Alley Oop”, Cat Stevens, The Soft Machine, Bruce Johnston, Kiss, Helen Reddy, John Lennon, Ariel Pink, The Byrds, Motley Crue, Frank Zappa, The Modern Lovers, Alice Cooper, Warren Zevon, The Runaways, and the idea of raising a lighter at a concert. Although this chat careens maniacally off the rails, the main topic of conversation centers on Kim’s plan to pave the way for Pet Sounds to make a huge splash amongst the British press and pop star aristocracy. Kim passed away a few years later in 2015, which makes this posthumously released “Chuck Chat” yet another priceless buried treasure.   There’ll be a short sneak peak running publicly for free, but the entirety of this podcast will only be accessible on the Major Tier of Discograffiti’s Patreon.

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 6 covers the beginning of Spirit’s Mercury Records era, a fertile period rife with creativity, as Randy California wound up processing his feelings around America’s Bicentennial through a surprisingly emotional internal filter, recording so much material for this double set that there was enough left over for a whole other record to come. Here are just a few of the many things that Ryan discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: Randy’s attempt to become a regular guy—including his stint working at a McDonald’s—before disappearing into thin air; Randy’s move to Hawaii, and some legitimately wild tales regarding his time there; How Ten Years After backing out of a Florida gig wound up changing the trajectory of Randy’s career; Reconciling the twin notions of recording an ambitious double set but gracing it with an album cover drawn haphazardly upon…a napkin?; And an in-depth deep dive on every song off Spirit’s Spirit of ’76.

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.  The Free Teaser: linktr.ee/discograffiti For the full, ad-free, 32-minute podcast, either subscribe to Discograffiti’s Patreon at the Private Tier or higher, or just grab the episode as a one-off at the same link.

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode (Part 4 of a 4-part series edited down from a 5 1/2 hour interview), Lenny Waronker takes a deep-dive stroll along with host Dave Gebroe through his entire career, with priceless commentary and stories peeled off along the way. Legendary producer and Warner Brothers studio head Lenny Waronker is a record producer and music industry executive. As the president of Warner Brothers Records, and later, as the co-founder and co-chair of DreamWorks Records, Waronker was noted for his commitment to artists and his belief that "music, not money, was still number one." In 2025, Waronker was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in the Ahmet Ertegun Award category for non-performing industry professionals.  Part 4 focuses on the first album Lenny ever produced, Side 2 of Van Dyke Parks’ legendary debut LP Song Cycle. Lenny once said: “To be associated with Song Cycle, even now, is more important to me than 99% of the hit records I’ve been involved with.” Parts 2 & 4 are an absolute dream come true for fans of this record. Here are just a few of the many things that Lenny discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The track on the LP that Van Dyke referred to as “like stepping from one kind of music into something else”; How Randy Newman feels about Nilsson Sings Newman, according to Lenny; A wildly divergent digression during which I discover the very direct link between The Beau Brummels and Rickie Lee Jones; An overview of Song Cycle’s ad campaign, one of the most memorable and least conventional music industry experiments of all time; An in-depth deep dive on every song off Side Two of Song Cycle; The early days of getting Ry Cooder & Randy Newman’s careers off the ground at Warner Brothers; Whether or not Van Dyke invented MTV a decade before its time; And an in-the-moment eulogy for Brian Wilson, who had died only days before the taping of this episode.

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode (Part I of a 4-part series edited down from a 5 1/2 hour interview), Lenny Waronker takes a deep-dive stroll along with host Dave Gebroe through his entire career, with priceless commentary and stories peeled off along the way. Legendary producer and Warner Brothers studio head Lenny Waronker is a record producer and music industry executive. As the president of Warner Brothers Records, and later, as the co-founder and co-chair of DreamWorks Records, Waronker was noted for his commitment to artists and his belief that "music, not money, was still number one." In 2025, Waronker was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in the Ahmet Ertegun Award category for non-performing industry professionals.  Part 1 focuses on the early years of Lenny’s career, leading up to the first album he ever produced, Van Dyke Parks’ Song Cycle. Here are just a few of the many things that Lenny discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: What it was like growing up with his father Simon, as he set up and funded the launch of Liberty Records; Befriending Randy Newman as a small child, and coming to realize how gifted he was; What it’s like for Lenny and Randy to struggle with issues of self-confidence, and how those issues manifest; Meeting Van Dyke Parks for the first time and beginning to work with him; Hearing Brian Wilson’s Smile tapes through Van Dyke; And the contract offered to Van Dyke: possibly the most artistically and financially advantageous agreement ever made with anybody ever.  The Free Teaser: linktr.ee/discograffiti For the full, ad-free, 88-minute podcast, either subscribe to Discograffiti’s Patreon at the Private Tier or higher, or just grab the episode as a one-off at the same link.
