212. MOBY GRAPE’S PETER LEWIS REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE HISTORY OF THE BAND PART 3 (GRAPE EXPECTATIONS EPISODE 9)

Welcome to Part 3, and the final installment of my conversation with Peter Lewis, a one-of-a-kind discussion that leapfrogs incessantly from one shocking revelation to the next. Here’s just a few of the many things that Peter discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:

 

• That time he took psilocybin with some hit men;
• How he was hoodwinked into participating in the 20 Granite Creek project;
• Robert Plant’s favorite Moby Grape song; 
• What he did during his 1971-1977 self-ordained “Wandering Phase”;
• An almost unbearably intense retelling of the Skip Spence monastery exorcism tale;
• The Moby Grape album that was mainly an excuse to vacuum up as much cocaine as was humanly possible;
• And a full rundown of the circumstances behind The Real Potato’s shelving (Director’s Cut only).
