211. MOBY GRAPE’S DON STEVENSON PART 3 (GRAPE EXPECTATIONS EPISODE 7)
Welcome to Part 3, and the final installment of my conversation with Don Stevenson, in which we cover the expansive era of 1969 to the present. Don says this will be the very last time he’ll be talking about his time in Moby Grape, so you absolutely will not want to miss this. Here’s just a few of the many things that Don discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:How Skip Spence’s Oar really got made, not the mythological pajama-wearing motorcycle ride to Nashville that’s been bandied about for years;The difficulty of Bob Mosley’s breakdown occurring in the much larger shadow of Skip’s concurrent mental problems;The reasons why their final album, 2010’s The Real Potato, was shelved (Director’s Cut only);How their disastrous 1971 gig at The Fillmore East really went down;The unimaginable horrors that occurred during the making of 20 Granite Creek;And a track-by-track deep-dive on Truly Fine Citizen, 20 Granite Creek, Live Grape, Legendary Grape, and several other records Moby Grape made during this period!Listen: linktr.ee/discograffitiI support a wife and a six-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income.
