Guest: Moby Grape drummer Don Stevenson.
Of all the great 60’s bands that came from the San Francisco area, Moby Grape may have been the best. Their 1967 debut album stands tall among the other giants released that year. Bad luck, terrible management decisions and a record company gaffe for the ages derailed all their momentum (wait until you hear Don’s ‘record company executive’ impression!).
By 1969 they had called it quits. But they got the itch to get back together and record a standout album in their discography...the rare “reunion album” that’s actually good. And what happened afterwards? “Well, nobody cared”, Don said laughingly.
Take a trip with Don and I as we discuss the formation, the demise, the-reformation, the demise, the re-reformation...well, you get the idea - of one of the greatest bands of the 1960’s and as we dive into each track of this wonderful yet underrated gem.
I hope you dig "20 Granite Creek" as much as I do.

===ERRORS & OMISSIONS===
In this Epysode, I attributed the song "Ode To The Man At The End Of The Bar" to Bob Mosley, when in fact it was actually written by his brother Andy.
Also, I reported that the band toured Europe after the release of 20 Granite Creek; this is incorrect. They toured there in 1969.
