** Spence's Moby Grape bandmate Bob Mosley also ended up struggling with schizophrenia, and both of them struggled with homelessness over the years, with one of Moby Grape's reunions (one Spence did not participate in) being specifically intended to keep Mosley from being homeless once again. Ultimately, Bob's schizophrenia led to drummer Don Stevenson quitting the band due to Mosely believing Stevenson wanted to murder him. Unlike Spence, Mosely never ceased being active in the music scene.

* Skip Spence, who used to play drums in Music/JeffersonAirplane and guitar in the 1960s psychedelic rock band Moby Grape, is an interesting example of an artist whose Breakdown (very likely from drugs and the resultant mental problems) was displayed on a single album, the songs going from "finely crafted pop" to pure horror. Spence largely withdrew from the music industry after this, though he reunited with Moby Grape in the late 70s and again in 1987. He was later asked to contribute to the first ''[[Series/TheXFiles X-Files]]'' movie ''[[Film/TheXFilesFightTheFuture Fight the Future]]'', but the song, called "Land of the Sun", was rejected for being too nightmarish -- the writer's voice sounds like a slowed-down death rattle.
