Podcasts about The Beach Boys

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, we feature the next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series. It's Chuck's chat with legendary producer Phil Ramone, Billy Joel's most relied-upon right-hand-man, the producer of every Billy Joel record during the height of his popularity, from 1977's The Stranger to 1986's The Bridge. Phil won his first production Grammy for his work on Paul Simon's Still Crazy After All These Years in 1975, eventually becoming chairman of The Recording Academy. He also helped produce, with Quincy Jones, 2001's televised A Tribute To Brian Wilson. His credits and accomplishments in the industry are almost literally endless, and what better place to learn about them than Chuck Granata's 2007 memoir (co-written with Phil) Making Records: The Scenes Behind The Music. Phil passed away a few years after this interview in 2013, which makes this posthumously released “Chuck Chat” yet another priceless buried treasure.   Here are just a few of the many things that Phil discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The dysfunctional Wilson family dynamic, which Phil talks about with great candor; Digging into the history of harmony, and the experience of working with The Beach Boys on Chicago's “Wishing You Were Here”; Working with Burt Bacharach, and Phil's transition from engineer to producer; The differences between east coast and west coast records in the 1960s & 1970s; The Nylon Curtain's debt to both The Beatles & Pet Sounds-era Beach Boys; Why Elton John was nervous to perform at the Brian Wilson tribute; And stereo vs. mono with regard to hearing Pet Sounds.

“There are dozens of Beach Boys!” Jack Reiley (Beach Boys manager 1970 to 1973) said: “The Beatles were focussed, strategic, professionally and well-led during the years of their mounting ascendency. During that period, the Beach Boys were divided, unprofessional and horrendously led… There was no career direction to speak of and chaos reigned.” Transcendental meditation, Charles Manson, heroic drug abuse, tragic deaths, the piano in the sandpit, a chapter which asks the question, “Why do people hate Mike Love? Let me count the ways…”, and arguably the worst album sleeve of any major release, but at the same time, peerless vocal harmonies and, in his glory years, a pop writer … Continue reading →

Under the California Sun, Scott does roam, humming the echoes of Good Vibrations along with foam. The Surfin' Safari begins at dawn, while the Fun, Fun, Fun of the waves rolls on.He pauses where the sea meets the God Only Knows sky, dreaming with a Wouldn't It Be Nice sigh. The breeze carries whispers of Don't Worry Baby near, as gulls cry melodies only his heart can hear.Through the sand, he traces a Sloop John B rhyme, tides singing I Get Around to the rhythm of time.When twilight falls on this Endless Summer shore, he'll leave with The Beach Boys in his soul forevermore.The Beach Boys were the last group to play at this year's Eat to the Beat concert series at the EPCOT International Food and Wine Festival...and Scott finally got to see them in concert!During this episode, not only will you hear some of their music, you'll also hear about some of the great food, snacks, and fun and crazy cool experiences Scott had with his good friends, Karen, Brian, and Russell.

“All bands are sad stories,” Peter Doggett points out, but is there a more woven, moving and, at times, farcical tale than that of the Beach Boys? It gives the sound of them a greater melancholy and resonance with every passing year. As his fascinating new book Surf's Up reveals, nothing that happened is straightforward and very little as simple as it sounds. We talk here about … … Dennis Wilson and the Beach Boys' creation myth … what started their revival … why they'd never have survived beyond 1962 without Mike Love … was Derek Taylor's ‘Brian is a genius' campaign partly to explain his procrastination and eccentricity? … the chaos of SMiLE and the long shadow of the Beatles … Murry Wilson's “superstar” ambitions and original plan for the group … the days when they looked like Old Testament prophets or hippies from Central Casting … Dennis and Manson, Carl v the draft, Mike Love's arrest … scandals that would have sunk them in the days of social media … the “Brian as victim trope” and his extraordinary appearance on “The Tension Behind the Music” … when Bart Simpson turned them down … can anyone name a good Beach Boys album cover? … and the band's future, a controlled touring franchise with no original members Order Peter Doggett's ‘Surf's Up: Brian Wilson & the Beach Boys' here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Surfs-Up-Brian-Wilson-Beach/dp/1917923341Help us to keep The Longest Conversation In Rock going: https://www.patreon.com/wordinyourear Hosted on Acast.

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, we feature the next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series. It's Chuck's chat with legendary Gold Star engineer Larry Levine, the man responsible, side by side with The Wrecking Crew, for building Phil Spector's "Wall of Sound”. His peak accomplishments include “Be My Baby”, “Summertime Blues”, “River Deep, Mountain High”, “You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin'”, “He's A Rebel”, "Then He Kissed Me", A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector, Pet Sounds, Smile, and so many others. Herb Alpert and Jerry Moss poached Larry in 1967, making him A&M Records' Chief Engineer. Larry passed away just a few years after this interview in 2008, which makes this posthumously released “Chuck Chat” yet another priceless buried treasure.   Here are just a few of the many things that Larry discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The early days of Gold Star and working with Phil Spector; The Phil Spector session that became the turning point in his working relationship with the producer; How Larry created the very first echo chamber, and an in-depth overview on how it developed over time; Larry's assessment of Brian Wilson's overall character; How Phil talked about Brian to Larry when Brian wasn't around; And his relationship with Chuck Britz.

Two completely different ideas of what a band is for.One built pop cathedrals in the studio and spent decades trying to bring that sound to the stage.The other built a moving city on the road and treated the studio almost like a postcard from their real life's work.Let's spend some time with both—and with the very different concert worlds they created.Support the showThank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.

Send us a textOn this Episode Tom and Bert discuss the "Famous" California Session Musicians known as "The Wrecking Crew"!During the infancy years of Rock n Roll Music way back in the 1950's and 1960's many of the major Recording Labels like Columbia, Capital and Warner Brothers were trying to record great music tracks at their sound studios. Since many of the U.S.A. Acts were out west in Los Angeles the Label Managers wanted to enhance the recordings of many of the groups and bands so they decided to hire session musicians or as we would say "Real Pro's".... to lay down the "Music" and record with the artists.That's where the "Wrecking Crew" created their magic and excelled!  It shows the impact that this group of pro's had on such artists as The Beach Boys, The Mama's and Papa's, Sonny and Cher, The Byrds, The 5th Dimension, John Denver, Elvis, The 4 Tops, The Supremes, Simon and Garfunkel and Stevie Wonder and many, many more.Here is their Story!CHAPTERS:(:55) Intro - The Music behind the "Hits"(1:12) Here are the Wrecking Crew!(14:15) Notable Songs recorded with the "Crew"(21:23) 100 MORE songs and our comments(34:14) Netflix' 2014 Movie Documentary ---MUST see TV!(37:51) Billboard Magazine's Top Artists Charts, Music Facts and Trivia and that's a Wrap!!Enjoy the Show!You can email us at reeldealzmoviesandmusic@gmail.com or visit our Facebook page, Reel Dealz Podcast: Movies & Music Thru The Decades to leave comments and/or TEXT us at 843-855-1704 as well

Chuck Berry is known as the “Godfather of Rock'N'Roll” John Lennon, Paul McCartney, everyone in the Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan, The Beach Boys, and AC/DC have been very vocal about how berry influenced them…he was rock's first guitar hero, and he was among the first group of musicians to be inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame.

Brian Wilson was a musical genius. And a new re-issue highlights his brilliance in live performance. And if there's anyone who can talk about Wilson's work it's David Leaf. He's literally written the book (well, 2, actually) as well as made the movie about Brian. Brian Wilson- Live at The Roxy Theater is available right now wherever you get your music.

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives.  In this episode, we feature the next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series. It's Chuck's chat with re-issue genius Bob Irwin. Bob and his wife Mary started the Sundazed Music label in 1989. The first Sundazed releases were The Great Lost Knickerbockers Album! by The Knickerbockers and Western Union by The Five Americans, and reflected Irwin's personal preference for garage rock and surf music. His skill at restoring old vinyl records for the (then new) CD format attracted the attention of major labels, who increasingly solicited him to help them re-issue material from their back catalogs. He also helped Sony Music release their archival Legacy Records label. Later, his restoration work included early material by the likes of Bob Dylan, Nancy Sinatra, & The Byrds. In this episode, Bob discusses his relationship with Pet Sounds, its standing in the pantheon no matter how many times you've heard it, its importance and influence on music in general, and the wonders of a technology with inherent, imposed limitations.

The United States may have an official day of gratitude every November with Thanksgiving, but for many of us, most every day could be a day of appreciation. A sincere "thank you" is rewarding for everyone: It feels good to say it and it feels good to hear it. However, appreciation can be complicated and "thank you" may come with a twist. Sometimes we're grateful (in hindsight, at least) for the lessons we've learned from difficult people. Sometimes we feel generalized happiness for family and/or friends. Sometimes we're just thankful to no one in particular that we're happy for no reason in particular. And of course sometimes expressions of gratitude are just a cover for dark feelings. In this episode of "How We Heard It" your hosts sift through an array of old and new songs that directly or indirectly express gratitude. Artists include Ariana Grande, Harry Styles, The Kinks, Sly and the Family Stone, The Beatles, Big Star, Natalie Merchant, Taylor Swift, Bob Hope, Elton John, Louis Armstrong, Rihanna, Gwen Stefani, The Beach Boys, Backstreet Boys, Alanis Morissette, James Taylor, Small Faces, Kool & the Gang, U2, Spice Girls, Boyz II Men and many more. Thanks for listening!

Discograffiti's Pet Sounds Deep-Dive Series stands as a unique combination of factual obsession and personal connection, and there's nothing else quite like it. This is the final episode. Here are just a few of the many things that Chuck discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: How Pet Sounds' final track differs from the rest of the record; The many possible Carolines who may have inspired the song; What writing the song wound up setting in motion for Brian, as he attempted to reconnect with his high school crush, Carol Mountain; An intensive breakdown of the song's mysterious coda; And how both Chuck and I connect with “Caroline, No” in a laid-bare, explicitly personal way.

We just saw one of the most entertaining World Series matchups we'll likely ever witness. Yet so many arguments after the fact boil down to nitpicking certain plays, criticizing the Dodgers for spending money and "ruining" baseball, and calling people stupid for not doing a specific thing. Sure, fans of the teams actually playing can go a little bonkers, but the rest of us? We can probably all just enjoy high-quality sports at their finest.Speaking of bonkers, how about the end of that Bears/Bengals game? Plus, a few other NFL shenanigans, one of our favorite touchdown celebrations of the year, and a surprisingly deep dive into The Beach Boys, who Sean just saw live in concert.Rico Dowdle's fantastic "Key & Peele"-inspired touchdown celebration: https://www.reddit.com/r/nfl/comments/1omrklb/highlight_rico_dowdle_flagged_for_twopump/Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/sports-r-dumb/donations

Happy Halloween! For this episode of Necronomicast, it is my pleasure to welcome back former co-host Doug Kabourek! Doug joins me for a highly spirited conversation centering on his new album released just in time for the Halloween season "Black Walls & William Hall". A complex and incredible musical tribute to the famed Omaha haunted house attraction "Mystery Manor" which was closed and demolished in 2024 after 40 years of delivering fun filled fright to the citizens of Omaha. We will sharing the track "Ambulance" from the album! From music journalist Tim McMahan: "The epic new album Black Walls and William Hall by Fizzle Like a Flood, a.k.a. Doug Kabourek, is more than a collection of songs; it's the soundtrack to a horror-filled love story that has festered in Kabourek's psyche for more than a decade. A kaleidoscope of noise, sound, samples and screams swirl into and around the record's eight songs. The dense, layered production is sure to turn on fans of Flaming Lips' adventurous soundscapes, while the rock songs provide the riffage and melodies to satisfy any true Weezer, Sebadoh or Beach Boys fan. Headphones are a must to capture Kabourek's intricate, nuanced cacophony as well as to follow the narrative, which is nearly impossible without the lyric sheet printed on the album's sleeve (hopefully he'll be adding them to the Bandcamp liner notes). But with or without the words, the immersive audio experience is a hallucinatory thrill ride on par with the best haunted houses." Together, Doug and I will recount the years we enjoyed creeping around the halls of Mystery Manor and explore the inspiration, writing, and recording of his celebrated new musical masterpiece!
