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. .
