Podcast appearances and mentions of Brian Wilson

In this episode of My Rock Moment, we're diving deep into one of rock and roll's most legendary what-could-have-beens… and what-finally-was. Back in 1966, fresh off the groundbreaking success of Pet Sounds, Brian Wilson set out to create his magnum opus: Smile. With poet and lyricist Van Dyke Parks at his side, the project promised to be a revolutionary leap forward—a kaleidoscopic, avant-garde album that would redefine what pop music could be. But as recording progressed, the pressure from within the band, the label, and Brian's own mental health struggles led to the album's unraveling. The sessions were shelved, and Smile became one of music history's greatest mysteries—a “lost” album that haunted fans, scholars, and Brian himself for decades. That is, until the early 2000s, when Smile finally got its moment in the sun. Reimagined and completed by Brian Wilson and Van Dyke Parks nearly 40 years later, the album was not only resurrected—it was performed live, recorded, and finally released, closing the loop on one of rock's most mythical stories. Joining us to unpack it all is David Leaf—acclaimed writer, director, producer, and longtime friend of Brian Wilson. David has chronicled Brian's life and legacy for decades, and in his new book, SMiLE: The Rise, Fall and Resurrection of Brian Wilson, he brings fresh insight into Smile's rise, fall, and miraculous comeback.

Vicki Peterson and John Cowsill, who are married to each other, have been making music for many years but recently released their first album together, Long After the Fire. Peterson has been singer-songwriter-guitarist for the Bangles and Continental Drifters. John Cowsill began drumming for the Cowsills at a young age, more recently was the Beach Boys' drummer and now fills in as lead singer for the Smithereens. The new album features songs written by John's two late brothers, Bill and Barry Cowsill, and John and Vicki harmonize beautifully and, as you'll hear here, crack each other up. They recount how they decided (and occasionally tangled over) who would sing what and tell great stories too, covering Vicki's long connection with the Cowsills (which dates back to 1978) and John's cosmic if heartbreaking moment with Brian Wilson.

The Beach Boys' SMiLE was abandoned by Brian Wilson in 1967 and eventually performed at an emotional gathering of the faithful in London 37 years later. For writer and lecturer David Leaf it became an obsession. He made a documentary about it in 2004 and has just published ‘SMiLE: The Rise, Fall and Resurrection of Brian Wilson' drawn from detailed conversations with the people involved. He talks to us here about his discoveries, which include … ... the Rolling Stone story that kick-started his obsession. … “a bicycle ride from Plymouth Rock to Hawaii” and other early plans for the album. … how Leonard Bernstein, the Beatles and Derek Taylor racked up the pressure in the studio. … why the other Beach Boys – and Capitol and Murry Wilson - felt the new music was a threat to their livelihood. … how Brian composed the “teenage symphony for God” that became an albatross around his neck. ... “Ray Davies needed a deadline”: the perils of endless recording time. … the magnetism of Van Dyke Parks, a man who “talks in paragraphs”. ... the imagined impact on the world and the band's career if SMiLE had come out in 1967. … the birth of “art rock” versus the strictures of the music business. … the value of the SMiLE myth in the eventual rebirth of the Beach Boys. … the reaction to its long-awaited performance at the Festival Hall in 2004. ... why Brian thought shelving the album would save the group yet “they went from a No 1 single to an act nobody cared about in under a year”. ... and the greatest Beach Boys record of all time. Order SMiLE: the Rise, Fall & Resurrection of Brian Wilson here: https://omnibuspress.com/products/smile-the-rise-fall-and-resurrection-of-brian-wilson-published-10th-october-2024?_pos=1&_psq=smile&_ss=e&_v=1.0Help us to keep the conversation going by joining our worldwide Patreon community: https://www.patreon.com/wordinyourear Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Here are some songs from your life, "Backstreet Girl" by the Rolling Stones, "Joey" by Bob Dylan, "Road to Nowhere" by the Talking Heads, "Boy In The Bubble" by Paul Simon, "July Fourth, Asbury Park", better known as "Sandy" by Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, "Wouldn't It Be Nice" by the Beach Boys. They all rely heavily on the accordion. "Wouldn't It Be Nice" is the biggest shock. Even if you know that song, it might never have occurred to you that Brian Wilson uses I'm pretty sure two accordions to make the primary propulsive musical fabric of that song. The last two decades of indie music ought to have normalized the accordion - Tom Waits, REM, Arcade Fire, The Decemberists... I could go on. It has also endured years of ridicule here in the United States, even while it remained beloved and esteemed in Argentina, Paris, and almost everywhere else in the world. Now, it's enjoying a renaissance here in the States. This hour, we celebrate that with accordion rock stars of all styles. You'll meet a man who is reclaiming the accordion, outfitting his latest version with MIDI controls, so it can mimic voice and other instruments, a woman who specializes in klezmer, and a man who plays his accordion in a trio alongside a guitar and tuba. You also meet other accordion rock stars, including James Fearnley from The Pogues. Just try to tell him that the squeezebox isn’t cool. GUESTS: Cory Pesaturo: Multiple award-winning accordion player from Rhode Island Christina Crowder: Accordion player who specializes in klezmer and other Eastern European styles, and is a member of the Accordion/Violin/Viola trio, Bivolita Will Holshouser: Accordion player and founder of the accordion/guitar/tuba trio, Musette Explosion James Fearnley: Accordion player for The Pogues and the author of the memoir, Here Comes Everybody, The Story of The Pogues.

Los Bengala es una banda que nació en Zaragoza en 2014 sin más pretensiones que desfogarse y hacer ruido juntos. Han publicado tres discos, el último de ellos es "Peligro de Extinción", un alarido de supervivencia que resuena en las entrañas de la jungla urbana. Han presentado su frenético directo en los grandes festivales del país, desde el BBK Live al VIDA o el LOW y han compartido cartel y/o escenario con referentes internacionales como The Libertines, Brian Wilson o Primal Scream. El título más reconocible y celebrado (y premiado) de su discografía es "Jodidamente loco", aunque ellos reconocen que es su peor canción.Escuchar audio

This is an Encore Presentation of my December 2022 interview with Bruce Belland of The Four Preps, America's first boy band. Their 1958 million selling hit “26 Miles Across The Sea” made them into international pop stars. The song influenced Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys and inspired Jimmy Buffett. The Preps were featured on the Ed Sullivan Show and had a recurring role in “Ozzie And Harriet”. They even co-starred in the movie “Gidget” with Sandra Dee. In total they had 8 Gold Singles and 3 Gold Albums. Bruce talks about his fascinating life in the entertainment business including his date with Nancy Sinatra. My featured song is “Around The Horn” from the Made In New York album by my band, Project Grand Slam.

When a musician takes on a new song, they're taking on a journey. A million mouse clicks. (Often) thousands of dollars. And most importantly, up to hundreds of hours of work. So why do we so often write songs to be a “hit?” And then why are we surprised when we burn out chasing hit songs?Let's talk about passion. What animates the artist. And why hits can be unexpected. They're lightning in a bottle.

Becoming a certified baler, the evocative interplay between chords, and saccades. M. Ross Perkins M ROSS PERKINS- “What's the Matter, M Ross?” [RELEASE DATE: 5/2/2025] - https://www.coleminerecords.com/products/m-ross-perkins-whats "In describing M Ross Perkins, it's not wrong to namecheck Rhodes and Nilsson, but you have to expand that list of influences to include pop-rock visionaries like Brian Wilson, Colin Blunstone, and even John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Let's also throw in the Flying Burrito Brothers and the Kinks as well. Perkins clearly learned plenty of helpful tips from these and other legends that made the late 1960s and early 1970s such a magical musical time, but he has charted his own singular path from the past and back again. Perkins' hooks, arrangements, and overall sense of songcraft are as sophisticated as the work of Wilson and Nilsson, which is remarkable when you consider Perkins not only produced all of the musical arrangements for his sophomore album E Pluribus M Ross, but also played all of the instruments and sang all of the vocal parts on the album. Even more impressive, Perkins is able to evoke all of these iconic figures in his songs without resorting to psych-rock cliches or outright thievery. It's an extraordinary balancing act, and what emerges is a shimmering tapestry of skillfully-woven musical threads, each harkening back to the past while simultaneously pointing toward the future."

Multi-talented singer/songwriter DeeAnn has received numerous well-deserved accolades in her hometown of Buffalo, New York's 10th Annual “JazzBuffalo” musical greats poll. She was awarded “Jazz Female Vocalist of the Year”, receiving the most votes for her still-popular 2023 album “It's My Time”, and was chosen runner-up for “Most Memorable Performance” and the “John Hunt Jazz Artist of the Year” Award. Her new single “Simply Beautiful,” was been released, which is a sensual, deep soul bluesy twist on an early 70's Al Green song from his landmark #1 Billboard album “I'm Still in Love with You”. She collaborated with her new producer Ted Perlman, on this song and the upcoming new album featuring both originals and re-imaginings of classic songs from various eras. Working with Perlman puts DeeAnn in the classic company of the multi-genre greats he has produced, arranged, recorded, and toured with over the past five decades - including Burt Bacharach, Whitney Houston, Manhattan Transfer, Harry Belafonte, Bob Dylan, Ronald Isley, Jermaine Jackson, Edwin Hawkins, CeCe Winans, Brian Wilson, Dr. Dre, Diana Ross, Ringo Starr, Joe Cocker, Chicago and Young MC. She joined the podcast to discuss it all. Podcast Host: Toni Ann Marcolini

En este episodio, nos sumergimos en el fascinante mundo de las biopics musicales, esas películas que nos han permitido conocer la vida, el ascenso, los excesos y el legado de algunos de los músicos más icónicos de la historia. Desde el brillo y la energía de Rocketman y Bohemian Rhapsody, hasta la intensidad dramática de Elvis y Priscilla, analizamos cómo el cine ha retratado a las leyendas de la música. También exploramos biopics menos convencionales, como la historia de Love & Mercy, que nos adentra en la mente brillante y torturada de Brian Wilson de The Beach Boys, y la singular I'm Not There, donde varias estrellas (incluyendo Cate Blanchett y Heath Ledger) interpretaron diferentes facetas de Bob Dylan. Además, discutimos la próxima película protagonizada por Timothée Chalamet, quien dió vida al legendario Dylan en un nuevo retrato cinematográfico. ¿Cuál de estas películas logra capturar mejor la esencia del artista que representa? ¿Qué hace que una biopic musical funcione? Acompáñanos en este recorrido por el cine y la música en un episodio lleno de nostalgia, análisis y rock & roll.

The Best Show's Tom Scharpling has been a Beach Boys obsessive for over 40 years, and the idea behind bringing him on for Party!, The Beach Boys' oft-dismissed 10th LP that also served as a stopgap measure allowing Brian Wilson to buy time to shape Pet Sounds, was to feature a guest who took this record seriously. In addition, the various unreleased experiments in which Brian was engaging during this era are some of the most fascinating studio visits Brian would ever make in his life, and each and every one is covered in forensic detail (especially in The Director's Cut edit). Greatness was not just around the corner…it was already here.Here's just a few of the many things that Tom discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:How Tom initially became deeply, deeply obsessed with The Beach Boys in the early 1980s, and the burnout he eventually incurred via oversaturation;The time in the late 1980s that a young Tom contacted a radio call-in show that featured Brian, only to harangue him about when Smile was coming out;A fascinating series of unreleased studio experiments that paved the way for both Pet Sounds & Smile;A discussion about whether or not The Beach Boys are an inherently funny band…or not at all in the least;A debate over whether covering their own material on Party was proto-Weird Al or just a complete misfire;And a track-by-track rundown of the Party!

Returning guest Pete Kember (aka Sonic Boom) is back, and better than ever, as he tackles the 9th LP by The Beach Boys.  As it says in David Leaf's 1990 CD two-fer liner notes: “After side two of Today!, it didn't seem possible that Brian could return to these simpler themes, but for one last album, he found a way to combine Capitol's commercial demands with his artistic calling.”  Stay tuned, Pete'll be back for one of our many episodes on SMiLE!Here's just a few of the many things that Pete discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:How Pete's obsession with The Beach Boys began;An in-depth conversation about Brian Wilson's first acid trip in April 1965;A consensus on Bruce Johnston's entrance into the band;Exactly how influenced Animal Collective's Panda Bear is by The Beach Boys;Brian's absolute hatred of his vocal for “Let Him Run Wild”;And the great “filler” debate, specifically with regard to exactly how much of it mars this record.Listen: linktr.ee/discograffitiI support a wife and a six-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income. If you're a Beach Boys superfan like me, you'll want The Director's Cut of this episode.

In this episode of The Rewatch Party, Nick, Anthony, and Dan dive into Love & Mercy, the 2014 biopic about Beach Boys legend Brian Wilson. Unlike traditional musician biopics, this film takes a unique approach, following Wilson during two pivotal periods of his life—played by Paul Dano in the 1960s and John Cusack in the 1980s. The hosts discuss how this split timeline storytelling affects the film's emotional impact and whether it enhances or distracts from the narrative. Anthony, a fan of music history, praises the film's deep dive into Wilson's genius and struggles, while Nick and Dan debate whether the dual performances truly capture the essence of the troubled artist. The conversation naturally shifts to the film's depiction of the creative process behind Pet Sounds, one of the most influential albums of all time. The hosts analyze how Love & Mercy showcases Wilson's innovative techniques and obsessive perfectionism in the studio, bringing to life the making of iconic songs. Nick argues that these scenes are the heart of the film, immersing viewers in Wilson's artistic brilliance, while Dan points out how the tension with bandmates and his domineering father adds layers to the story. Anthony highlights the film's ability to make the audience feel both the joy of creation and the weight of Wilson's mental health struggles. Of course, the discussion wouldn't be complete without addressing Paul Giamatti's chilling performance as Dr. Eugene Landy, the manipulative therapist who controlled Wilson's life in the 1980s. The hosts dissect the disturbing power dynamics between Landy and Wilson, with Elise noting that John Cusack's subdued performance contrasts well against Giamatti's overwhelming presence. They also explore Elizabeth Banks' role as Melinda Ledbetter, Wilson's eventual savior, and whether her character's arc is given enough depth. By the end of the episode, the trio reflects on Love & Mercy's rewatchability. While its emotional weight and unconventional structure might not make it an easy, casual rewatch, its powerful performances, immersive storytelling, and reverence for Brian Wilson's artistry make it a compelling experience. Whether you're a die-hard Beach Boys fan or just appreciate a well-crafted biopic, this discussion will leave you with a greater appreciation for the man behind the music.   https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0903657/

By the mid-70's the Beach Boys appeared to be a band that had been left behind.  Sales had been only moderate for their previous albums, and the band was struggling to determine their direction musically.  In the summer of 1973 the movie "American Graffiti" featured several Beach Boys songs, creating nostalgia for the earlier surfing music.Between the revived interest sparked by "American Graffiti" and the success of the Beatles "Red" and "Blue" compilation albums, the Beach Boys released a collection of hits from their early 60's catalogue called Endless Summer.  This featured songs from their Capitol Records days, 1962-1965.  It was a near-instant success reaching the top of the charts in the United States four months after its release, and becoming their second number 1 album on the US charts.  After the success of Endless Summer, the Beach Boys would reposition themselves as an oldies act, continuing in this vein for many years.  Brian Wilson would pen one further Beach Boys studio album in 1977 which would meet with meager sales.  Afterwards the band would focus on their classics until seeing a resurgence in the late 80's generated from another popular film, Tom Cruise's "Cocktail" Wayne brings us this surfin' themed compilation for this week's podcast. Catch A WaveA true surfing song, this tune is about being on a surfboard, waiting for the right wave to come along.  This song was originally released on the 1963 album "Surfer Girl," and a rewritten version was recorded by Jan and Dean as "Sidewalk Surfin."Little Deuce CoupeThis track is about a 1932-vintage Ford model 18 hot rod used in drag racing on the streets of California.  "American Graffiti" had featured the deuce coupe prominently, along with the Beach Boys song.  The lyrics were written by local radio DJ Roger Christian.Shut DownAnother song about drag racing, "shut down" means you are about to beat the person in the race.  The phrase "tach it up" may have lost some meaning in the era of automatic transmission, but the tachometer would run high for a drag race.  The song is told from the perspective of the driver of a 1963 Corvette Sting Ray in a race against a 1962 Dodge Dart.Fun, Fun, FunThe inspiration for this song was a story the Beach Boys heard during a radio interview.  The station owner described his daughter "borrowing" his 1963 Thunderbird to go to a drive-in hamburger shop.  The opening riffs were inspired by Chuck Berry's "Johnny B. Goode."   ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Uptown Saturday Night by Dobie Gray (from the motion picture “Uptown Saturday Night”)Sidney Poitier starred in and directed this action comedy which co-starred Bill Cosby, Harry Belafonte, Richard Pryor, and Flip Wilson. STAFF PICKS:The Joker by the Steve Miller BandLynch leads off the staff picks with a well known song from Steve Miller.  The names in the first line reference several of Miller's previous songs, as well as the made-up word "pompatus."  It barely cracked the top 40 in the US, hitting 40 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Miller borrowed some lyrics from the song "Lovey Dovey" when he talks about wanting to "shake your tree."The Air that I Breathe by the HolliesRob brings us a slow burning but iconic ballad that the Hollies covered.  The original was from Albert Hammond, and previously covered by Phil Everly.  The Hollies version was the most successful, going to number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Alan Parsons was the engineer on this song.Hollywood Swinging by Kool & the GangBruce's staff pick is the first number 1 R&B Single from Kool & the Gang.  It was a crossover hit as well, going to number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Rick Westfield is the keyboardist for it and sings lead.  The song is a true story of the keyboardist wanting to become "a bad piano-playing man" with the group. Rock and Roll Heaven by The Righteous BrothersWayne's features an ode to the rock stars who had died at an early age. This song is another example of a song that was covered, and did better than the original.  Climax performed this song in 1973 but did not chart, while the Righteous Brothers took it to the top 10 in the United States.  Lyric would be added in the years to come as more rock stars passed. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Chameleon by Herbie HancockThis jazz funk instrumental track closes out the podcast for the week.  Thanks for listening to “What the Riff?!?” NOTE: To adjust the loudness of the music or voices, you may adjust the balance on your device.

The Beach Boys' sixth LP is unquestionably one of their best. It's a transitional one, too, which is why this record stands as the perfect signpost at which to conclude “Catch A Wave: 1961-1964.” This two-part Season One Finale is an intense investigation of the heady days that built up to the explosion of creativity that still stands unequalled in the annals of music history. Beach Boys author Jon Stebbins is back, and he explains why his favorite Beach Boys record preceded what's normally considered Brian's most celebrated era.*** STAY TUNED, BECAUSE SEASON 2 BEGINS NEXT WEEK! ***Here's just a few of the many things that Jon discusses with Discograffiti in this Season 1 finale podcast:Brian Wilson's curious signature move of placing random coughing and muttered background conversations in his otherwise perfect tracks;The importance of drive-in theaters in the culture at the time, and how best to sneak people in;Brian's insistence that his best, most important song was a track on this very album;An in-depth breakdown of Side 2 of the All Summer Long LP;The wild build-up of landmark events in Brian's life as 1964 drew to a close which comparatively makes the last scene in GoodFellas feel about as intense as a an afternoon at a retirement community;And the most important nervous breakdown in music history.Listen: linktr.ee/discograffitiI support a wife and a six-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income. If you're a Beach Boys superfan like me, you'll want The Director's Cut of this episode.

Welcome to Discograffiti's exploration of Brian Wilson's Outside Productions, of which there are very many, discussed with both Endless Summer Quarterly's Editor-In-Chief David Beard, who is currently entrenched in a year-long series on this very topic (!), as well as Producer/Songwriter Russ Titelman—Brian's pal and confidante during this time, as well as producer of all the classic 1970s Randy Newman LPs and Brian's first solo album. In this episode, we talk about what Brian wound up getting out of his non-Beach Boy production work, what he brought back into the Beach Boy fold from all this work, the various regrets of some of the artists who worked with him but never quite hit the big time, and Russ's in-depth ruminations on the two classic songs he co-wrote with Brian: “Guess I'm Dumb” & “Sherry, She Needs Me.”There'll be a short sneak peak running publicly for free, but the entirety of this podcast will only be accessible on the Major Tier of Discograffiti's Patreon.

Listen to an interview with the legendary producer and bassist Don Was. He'll be performing in Central Indiana, with the Pan Detroit Ensemble on February 28 at the Allied Solutions Center for the Performing Arts. Born in Detroit, Michigan in 1952, Don Was rose to prominence in the 1980s, with the band Was (Not Was), the group's music featured a surreal mix of funk, electronic dance music, new wave, and avant-garde jazz, along with an unexpected cast of guest performers that included Mel Torme, Ozzy Osbourne, Frank Sinatra Jr., Iggy Pop, and Leonard Cohen. Was (Not Was)  scored a top 10 hit in 1987, with the infection dance song “Walk the Dinosaur”.  The notoriety Was gained with Was (Not Was) paved the way for his historic work as a record producer. Was has received 6 Grammy Awards for his work as a producer, including album of the year in 1989  for Bonnie Raitt's Nick of Time and producer of the year in 1994. Was has produced dozens of significant recordings, including the B-52's breakout album Cosmic Thing, along with notable work, from The Rolling Stones, Iggy Pop, Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson, Elton John, Ringo Starr, Brian Wilson, Wayne Shorter, and Waylon Jennings, to name a few. Since 2011, Was has served as president of the revered jazz label Blue Note Records.   Throughout his life, Was has looked to the culture of his hometown Detroit as a reference point and source of inspiration for his work, that's evident in his latest project the Pan Detroit Ensemble a group of veteran Detroit jazz and R&B musicians.
