## Resource

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 6 of the series features Jack and I doing a deep, deep dive on every song off the band’s debut album. Here are just a few of the many things that Jack discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: Jack’s recollections of Skip Spence; Their first of many dealings with the censors, and what they were forced to cut from the lyrics; Who Marty originally wrote “It’s No Secret” for; Some unexpected and very welcome in-the-moment Casady Airplane jamming; Who “Come Up The Years” was written about; The one sole instrumental overdub on the entire record; And an in-depth, track-by-track deep dive on every song off Jefferson Airplane Takes Off.
