    Jan 21 2026
    ***This show is brought to you by DistroKid. Go to http://distrokid.com/vip/the500 for 30% off your first year!*** Released during the Summer of Love, the album landed at a moment when the Bay Area was reshaping American rock music, but Moby Grape did not sound like Jefferson Airplane, the Grateful Dead, or Quicksilver Messenger Service. Instead, at a time when many peers were drifting toward extended jams, they decided to blend folk, blues, country, pop, and psychedelic rock with a dialed-in approach. Wayne Federman returns to discuss an album right up his alley. .

    Dec 31 2025
    ***This show is brought to you by DistroKid. Go to http://distrokid.com/vip/the500 for 30% off your first year!*** At this point in The Byrds' career, they were already established as pioneers of folk rock through earlier hits like “Mr. Tambourine Man” and “Turn! Turn! Turn!”, but they were hungry to push their sound further. On this album, they blended folk rock with elements of psychedelia, country rock and used studio experimentation like brass accents and reverse tape effects to color their music.
