• TONY ASHER TALKS ABOUT WORKING WITH BRIAN WILSON ON THE BEACH BOYS’ PET SOUNDS (PART 3) (Ep. 231)

  Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives.  In this episode, the next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series, Discograffiti presents Part 3 of Chuck’s chat with Tony Asher, Brian Wilson’s lyrical collaborator on Pet Sounds. This is easily the best, most honest and unguarded Tony Asher interview in existence. Huge thank you to Chuck.      Here’s just a few of the many things that Tony discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:   The tantalizing pitch to rewrite some Beach Boys lyrics that Tony wound up turning down (Director’s Cut only); How his work writing jingles for Mattel toys dovetailed creatively into his experience working with Brian (Director’s Cut only); Granular details of his very first hang with Brian; The grand total of Beach Boys LPs that Tony Asher owns; His opinion of pre-Pet Sounds Beach Boys lyrics; And details surrounding the wild Loren Schwartz parties which the two men both attended.   Listen: linktr.ee/discograffiti   I support a wife and a six-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income.    The Director’s Cut of this episode is ad-free and features 14 additional minutes of essential material. Support Discograffiti by opting for this clearly superior version.   Either subscribe to Discograffiti’s Patreon at the Lieutenant or Major Tier, or just grab the episode as a one-off at the same link.   The Director’s Cut: Patreon.com/Discograffiti   Chuck Granata’s book Wouldn’t It Be Nice: Brian Wilson And The Making Of The Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds is the ultimate dissection of Brian Wilson’s 1966 masterpiece.  Order it on Amazon or at your favorite brick n mortar bookstore.

• AN INTERVIEW WITH DR. PAUL TANNER, INVENTOR OF THE ELECTRO-THEREMIN (Ep. 230B)

  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 Dr. Paul Tanner, inventor (with Bob Whitsell) of the Electro-Theremin, which he also famously played on three Beach Boys tracks: “I Just Wasn’t Made For These Times,” “Good Vibrations,” and “Wild Honey.” Paul passed away a few years later in 2013, which makes this posthumously released “Chuck Chat” yet another priceless buried treasure.   Here are just a few of the many things that Paul discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: How he got the idea for the Electro-Theremin in the first place; The differences between the theremin and Dr. Tanner’s simpler device; His days playing trombone with the Glenn Miller Band; The 1958 record Music For Heavenly Bodies, which was the first full-length LP to feature Paul’s instrument; Being asked to join The Beach Boys on tour; And what happened when a different Wilson brother hired Paul for a session date. 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.

• THE BEACH BOYS’ PET SOUNDS DEEP-DIVE: “I Just Wasn’t Made For These Times” & “Pet Sounds” (Ep. 230)

  Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives.  In this episode, Beach Boys author Chuck Granata reviews and discusses Pet Sounds’ “I Just Wasn’t Made For These Times” and “Pet Sounds” with commentary and stories. 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.  Here are just a few of the many things that Chuck discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: Dave Gebroe’s 2 favorite songs of all time; The use of the Electro-Theremin in “I Just Wasn’t Made For These Times,” which stands as its first usage in a pop/rock record ever; Tony Asher’s inability to personally connect with the lyrics to “I Just Wasn’t Made”; The spiritual successor to the song that Brian created and recorded with Andy Paley in the 1990s; The true origin and first-draft title of the title track; And how both Chuck and I connect with “I I Just Wasn’t Made For These Times” and Pet Sounds” in a laid-bare, explicitly personal way. Listen: linktr.ee/discograffiti I support a wife and a six-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income.  The Director’s Cut of this episode is ad-free and features 19 additional minutes of essential material (which comprises the entire section on the title track).

• AN INTERVIEW WITH AUTHOR LEWIS SHINER ABOUT HIS NOVEL “OUTSIDE THE GATES OF EDEN” (Ep. 229)

  Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives.  In this episode, author Lewis Shiner discusses his epic, 868-page, music-based novel Outside The Gates Of Eden, which follows a series of characters from 1965 to the present day. Lewis describes it as a "War & Peace for the Woodstock Generation," and I believe it is an absolute masterpiece, one of the 10 best books I’ve ever read in my life.   Lewis explains the book’s origin, its adept blend of fact and fiction, how Dylan going electric became the leap-off point for both himself and his main characters, how the entirety of Woodstock earned a place in the book as a tour de force tableaux during an important sequence, the real-life stalwarts from the late 1960s rock scene who became characters in this world, and how he knew as an author that it was time to stop writing books.

• LARRY KNECHTEL (The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series) (Ep. 228B)

  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 Larry Knechtel, the Wrecking Crew keyboard player and bassist who—along with Brian Wilson & The Beach Boys—has worked with Simon & Garfunkel, Duane Eddy, The Mamas & The Papas, The Monkees, The Doors, The Byrds, The Grass Roots, Elvis Presley, Jerry Garcia, and Billy Joel. He also was a key member of the band Bread. Larry passed away a few years later in 2009, 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: What he ascertained early on as a studio musician’s average career length, which then led to a healthy fear of his phone no longer ringing; His legendary work on Simon & Garfunkel’s “Bridge Over Troubled Water”; Besides Brian, the only Beach Boy he says his fellow studio musicians ever saw in the studio along with them; The curse of having perfect pitch; And his friendship with Jim Gordon…not to mention the fate of the 50+ hours of jam tapes that he recorded with him, which included spoken ruminations on what was bugging Jim at the time.  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. Don’t miss it, or you’ll only be getting part of the story. Get it as a one-off, or better yet just subscribe…and then we’ll all have world peace.
