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.

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.Here’s just a few of the many things that Dennis discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:The real-life story that inspired Brian Wilson to write “Help Me, Ronda”;How Murry wound up getting sacked, and the familiar way in which he dealt with it;Whether “Warmth Of The Sun” foretold JFK’s assassination or offered a fresh tribute to it;A friendly argument over whether or not the record falls apart toward the end;And an incredible cameo by Russ Titelman, who clarifies how “Fun Fun Fun” came to be!Listen: linktr.ee/discograffitiI support a wife and a six-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income.

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. Here’s just a few of the many things that Jon discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:A postscript commentary on Discograffiti’s controversial David Marks interview with his biographer, a man who knows him better than most;Some of the wild behavior that got David sacked from The Beach Boys;How David’s income was cut off months before David was actually removed from the band;Murry Wilson’s bizarre, vengeful campaign to squash any chances that David Marks & The Marksmen may have had at being successful…while simultaneously offering them assistance, too;And the ways in which LSD began to color his musical stylings during the late 1960s.Listen: linktr.ee/discograffitiI 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’ 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.
