Discograffiti

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: Listen: linktr.ee/discograffiti I support a wife and a six-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income.

Welcome to Discograffiti’s exploration of The Beach Boys’ seventh studio album, this one packed with holiday cheer and orchestral sparkle. In this episode, special guest David Beard and I talk about Brian’s album-length excuse to work with one of his heroes, Four Freshman arranger Dick Reynolds, whose expertise with the 41-piece orchestra that plays on half this LP foreshadows Brian’s just around the corner on Pet Sounds. We also discuss whether this was a dry run for an A-Side/B-Side tonal discrepancy that wound up coming heavily into play on 1965’s Today! LP, as well as what exactly happened with the group’s botched late-1970s Christmas album sequel. 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.

By the time The Beach Boys had released their fifth LP, they were firing on all cylinders, creating some of the best and most powerful music they’d ever make. Enter Dennis Diken: Smithereens drummer, rock historian, co-producer of this very series, and mensch-about-town, who takes us by the collective hand and guides us through this fraught era of the Boys’ history, as the Fab Four rose up from out of nowhere and offered then-unwelcome but ultimately very useful creative competition.

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.

David Marks never stayed in one place for long after leaving The Beach Boys. In this special episode, David Marks biographer and Beach Boys author Jon Stebbins steps aboard the Discograffiti train to address the ridiculous controversy behind the volatile David Marks season opener interview, before transitioning into a blow-by-blow account of a consistently fascinating career that has as its trademark the appearance of having very little connective thread of which to speak.

Welcome to Discograffiti’s exploration of The Beach Boys’ classic first live album, discussed with the man responsible for it in the first place: the great Fred Vail. In this episode, Fred and I talk about how he initially got involved with The Beach Boys, the noticeable lack of live albums in the early rock and roll era, how each of the band members wound up changing, the last time he ever saw the original Beach Boys live on stage, how it felt to witness the writing of “The Warmth Of The Sun,” and whether that happened before or after JFK was assassinated.

This episode was recorded just six days before the untimely and tragic death of Indie rock legend Will Cullen Hart. It also marks the beginning of Patrick Fleming as part of the team. The original theme of the discussion was to be “Explanation II” by Olivia Tremor Control, but we wound up covering both of the band’s LPs, as well as the work of some of Hart’s favorite musical artists. We’ll be sure to keep everyone updated on the vinyl release of “Explanation II” on the Elephant 6 Recording Company imprint in the months ahead.

The story goes that it only took a single day to record this album. Well, Discograffiti ironically took this opportunity to double down on our efforts to discuss it. Featuring two incredible special guests—The Patti Smith Group’s Lenny Kaye and Smithereens drummer Dennis Diken—topped off by Righteous Brother Bill Medley, who drops in for a quick visit. If you asked me (which you didn’t), this is one of the greatest episodes in Discograffiti history. Here’s just a few of the many things Lenny & Dennis discuss with Discograffiti in this podcast: The incomparably insane recording and release schedule under which The Beach Boys were working in the Fall of 1963; The yearning reach and sense of possibility inherent in the early 1960s, and how that wound up embedded in the grooves of the Little Deuce Coupe LP; What Mike Love once told Dennis “Ballad Of Ol’ Betsy” may have been about; Lenny’s favorite Beach Boys LP; The absolute necessity of doo-wop music and car culture at that time; And the live, in-the-moment discovery that Lenny and Dave are actually fraternity brothers.

Welcome to Discograffiti’s epic exploration of The Beach Boys’ classic 3rd LP, a deservedly rich, two-headed beast accessible on the Major Tier of Discograffiti’s Patreon. Musician Jason Falkner—not only Beck’s guitarist, but he of the amazing Jellyfish, too—and Producer/Songwriter Russ Titelman--who co-wrote Guess I’m Dumb and Sherry She Needs Me with Brian Wilson, was his pal and confidante during this time, and produced all the classic 1970s Randy Newman LPs and Brian’s first solo album—hash it out on the first Beach Boys LP to carry the “Produced by Brian Wilson” credit. In this episode, we discuss working with Paul McCartney, Jason’s not-so-cool surf background, what it’s like to grow up having no game with the ladies, and a whole lot more. 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 the full episode, or you’ll only be getting part of the story.

Carnie assured me she’s never done an interview like this in her life, so it’s an honor for Discograffiti’s “Beach Boys: And Your Dreams Come True” Series to have had this opportunity. Here, then, is Part 3 of the longest interview Carnie’s ever given, and on a subject she rarely talks about…her father’s band, and what it means to her. She picked 7 of the most important Beach Boys albums of her life (plus a solo LP), which, if taken together, form a patchwork quilt that defines the essence of Dad as she knows him. We, of course, know him as Brian Wilson, and so rarely do we get to have such an intimate glimpse of him. Here’s just a few of the many things Carnie discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: Her favorite Beach Boys album of all time; The mixed feelings that the 1976 “Brian’s Back” campaign brought up in her; The whirlwind launch of Carnie’s own career in Wilson Phillips, and how that helped in putting her past with Dad to bed; Her feelings on 15 Big Ones, Love You, Brian Wilson’s self-titled 1988 solo debut, and in a Director’s Cut exclusive 1979’s L.A. (Light Album); And, most importantly, the farting habits of the Wilson clan. Listen: linktr.ee/discograffiti I support a wife and a six-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income.

Here it is, a sneak peek into album number one. Although Brian’s wizardry in the studio had yet to truly take root, the endearingly youthful cornball pop of Surfin Safari tends to be unfairly underrated when placed in the context of the leaps n’ bounds advancements of the next few years. When it comes to The Beach Boys, so much happens in so little time…so don’t miss this full, uncut episode on our Patreon, or you’ll only be getting part of the story! Special guest James B. Murphy’s book “Becoming The Beach Boys 1961-1963” stands as the perfect companion piece to Season One, “Catch A Wave, (1961-1964),” and his insights into the period during which the group crafted their debut are crucial to understand how they grew into greatness.

Welcome to a sneak peek of the very first episode of Discograffiti’s epic Beach Boys series “And Your Dreams Come True.” Episode 1 explores the origin story of America’s band, along with author James B. Murphy, whose book Becoming The Beach Boys 1961-1963 stands as the perfect companion piece to our Season One, “Catch A Wave, (1961-1964).” Don’t miss the full premiere episode on our Patreon, or you’ll only be getting part of the story! SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON and receive a ceaseless barrage (4 shows a week!) of must-hear binge-listening! And now with our 2025 Membership Drive, you’ll also get a FREE copy of Metal Machine Muzak and an episode all about YOU at the Lieutenant Tier or higher: Patreon.com/Discograffiti (This episode is available on the Major Tier & up) I support a wife and a six-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income.
