	MOBY GRAPE
		At their best, the Grape were as good as the best of them, and unlike so many, they are still an entity that matters.
		On Moby Grape, the contours of the San Francisco sound are present in the way the band blends together; individual, personal style shining from every corner of the music.
		Moby Grape may be the most joyous of sixties’ San Francisco rock album classics.

	VH1.com : Moby Grape : Biography
		Moby Grape remains their signature statement, though the folk-rock and country-rock worked better than the boogies; "Omaha," "Sittin' by the Window," "Changes," and "Lazy Me" are some of their best songs.
		Moby Grape's follow-up, the double-LP Wow, was one of the most disappointing records of the '60s, in light of the high expectations fostered by the debut.
		Their problems were exacerbated by Matthew Katz, who owns the Moby Grape name, and has sometimes prevented the original members from using the name when they worked together.

	The Hangar
		Everyone agreed that Moby Grape was an astounding band, but confused the Airplane was that they were managed by one Matthew Katz.
		The Grape's saga is one of squandered potential, absurdly misguided decisions, bad-luck, blunders and excruciating heartbreak, all set to the tune of some of the greatest rock and roll ever to emerge from San Francisco.
		There would be other Moby Grape recordings and reunions, both under that name and others–the Legendary Grape, the Melvilles–concocted in an effort to circumvent Katz's claims on the group, but for the most part, despite the occasional resurfacing, Moby Grape was sunk almost from the start.

	SUNDAZED.COM EXCLUSIVES!
		We left Peter Lewis and Moby Grape last installment, scratching their collective heads in 1967 after signing a rider to their management contract with Matthew Katz (pronounced "Kates," by the way, so you won't be confused when the butler announces him in the morning room some day).
		Somebody once said, "At its best Moby Grape was more like a gang fight than a rock band." And it had that energy in it.
		We made Moby Grape '69, in an attempt to rebound from the Wow album, which was over-produced.

	Moby Grape
		And like those groups, Moby Grape was to go within just a few months from initial rehearsals to full-blown recording sessions.
		The Grape cut a third album without him, and later a bizarre country-western fourth album with only three of the original band members, but the spark - and opportunity to cash in on the nation's Summer of Love cultural detour - was gone forever.
		The original LP came with a bonus disk called Grape Jam, which as you might expect is a bunch of studio jams a la disk 3 of All Things Must Pass.

		Moby Grape--The story of Moby Grape would make a terrific movie with many tragic and unhappy plot twists and a kind of unresolved ending.
		Here were five singer/songwriters with a 3-guitar attack, harmonies that rivaled the Beatles, and the good sense to keep their songs to a few minutes in length.
		The Columbia debut Moby Grape was, and is, regarded as the perfect debut.

	Moby Grape : Wow - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Although a variety of primarily promotional-driven missteps almost beached Moby Grape, the Bay Area-based quintet of Peter Lewis (guitar), Bob Mosley (bass), Jerry Miller (guitar), Skippy Spence (guitar), and Don Stevenson (drums) were able to produce an undeniably strong debut outing during 1967's Summer of Love.
		Sadly, Moby Grape's run ended prior to the completion of Wow when Lewis quit and then Spence rapidly declined into substance-informed insanity.
		While other variations of Moby Grape resurfaced throughout the 1970s and '80s -- including a reunion under the moniker of The Melvelle's -- none captured the energy or passion of their first two albums.

	Moby Grape
		Moby Grape was an album written by a band that was definitely a part of the psychedelic San Francisco movement of the mid-'60's.
		While Moby Grape '67 is not overtly psychedelic, its sound has an indellible psychedelic imprint on it, even on the "ballad" songs.
		Atleast Moby Grape was a real group in 1967 and not a bullshit studio concoction like the Beatles.

	Amazon.co.uk: Moby Grape [Import]: Music (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Though Moby Grape came blasting out of San Francisco at theheight of the Haight-Ashbury scene, they are more related to LA bands like the Byrds and Love, stressing songwriting, arrangements, and multi-part vocals rather than jamming.
		The Grape's three-guitar line-up is known to have inspired a similar approach with Buffalo Springfield.
		Sadly, the Grape never sustained the momentum so evident on this West Coast classic but they're still playing in one form or another in the States and the recent 'Vintage' collection (containing practically eveything they recorded in their first incarnation - including this sparkling debut) has helped keep the flame burning.

		Moby Grape (the album), while a bit dated by its hippie-drenched feel-good vibe, is far more interesting today than the early albums produced by the Grape's San Francisco peers.
		Yeah, the Dead got better over time, but listen to their annoying self-titled debut album next to this one and you've gotta wonder how it was that it was the Dead, not Moby Grape, who went on to fame and fortune.

		Undermined by a deliberate abuse of process, the official Moby Grape website was shut down, as of 11 March, 1999, the result of which, now, directly affects the Moby Grape fans as well.
		Matthew Katz, filed a complaint and threatened legal action, claiming he still owns the name "Moby Grape" - despite the fact that in a matter decided by the SF Ninth District Circuit Court in 1995, the band won back their rights to their name and their songs.
		Grape's fans are shocked and angered by this sudden ex parte which has not only usurped our first amendment rights, but also violates the very premise of the internet!

		Grape Expectations: Moby Grape in its younger, freer days was the critics' and fans' darlings, but bad management and drug and mental problems tore the group apart before it could achieve its potential.
		Indeed, Lewis claims that one of the reasons for the Grape reunion is to get Mosley off the streets and under a roof of some sort.
		More to the point, perhaps, Moby Grape was never together long enough to produce any greatest-hits packages.

		Matthew Katz was fined $483 by Commissioner Hewlett today for abusing the Discovery Department by failing to answer the interrogotories to the satisfaction of the plaintiffs (Moby Grape members) and the court.
		Katz is still making claims to Moby Grape money, many of which may come back to haunt him at the May trial.

		Moby Grape's self-titled 1967 debut album remains one of the most enduring works to have emerged from any band in the '60s.
		Moby Grape was allotted a larger budget for its second album, WOW/GRAPE JAM, and the initial release featured two full albums shrink-wrapped together.
		WOW is the true sophomore release, with GRAPE JAM being 20 minutes of in-studio jamming by Grape members with Al Kooper and Mike Bloomfield.

		Moby Grape helped get me through a very tough year in Viet Nam and all of the rest of my extended vacation with Uncle Sam.
		His 1995 attempts to clone Moby Grape's entire debut album (some of which can be found on "Mo' Grape") eventually landed him, slightly dazed, on stage with Bob and Peter in San Diego in June of 2001.
		I have heard the few versions of it done live by the Grape circa 1978/1979, but this was culminated from the versions of when Bob was working the song up on his own.

		Supposedly in the early 70s Rubinson was involved in the negotiations that led to Matthew Katz becoming the legal owner of the name "Moby Grape".
		Aside from that, the band was always kind of annoyed at him for the liner notes he wrote for Moby Grape '69.

		Spence was never heard from on record again except for token, barely-there contributions to a number of reunions; in and out of mental institutions the rest of his life, he died in 1998.
		Although country-rock was big at the time, and Moby Grape came by it organically, the album barely entered the charts at #177.
		Given their convoluted history, the fact that they were assembled in the first place, and their failure to generate a lot of revenue, it's a credit that they've managed to work together, however sporadically, for so long.

		Because the song features an organ, and because of the "lovely" vocals, Sing Me A Rainbow embodies the "San Francisco sound." To conclude, the album under review is not Moby Grape.
