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 32 of the series is the Grand Finale, detailing the 1989 reunion album and tour, plus an epilogue detailing the band’s happily ever after. It includes Jack Casady’s final appearance of the series.

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

• How the reunion ever wound up happening in the first place;
• The new substance issues that had come to the fore for the band members by 1989;
• The business tensions that dogged the making of the record;
• The release of Starship’s Love Among The Cannibals right in the midst of the Airplane’s reunion; 
• The wild skirmish that left Mickey Thomas brutally beaten;
• Whatever happened to Starship;
• Jack’s overview of the self-titled 1989 reunion album;
• And an epilogue detailing the remaining years of Jefferson Airplane’s various band members.
