Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, Beach Boys author Chuck Granata reviews and discusses Pet Sounds’ “I Know There's An Answer” (originally written as "Hang On To Your Ego") and “Here Today,” 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 like it.
Here are just a few of the many things that Chuck discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:
The extremely illuminating original title of “Hang On To Your Ego”;
Some background info on little-known “Ego” co-writer Terry Sachen;
The impact of LSD on Brian’s consciousness during that time;
The difficulty that Tony Asher had with writing lyrics to “Here Today”;
The fraught relationship that Brian Wilson had with “Here Today”;
The Four Seasons song that may have been a “Here Today” influence;
And how both Chuck and I connect with “I Know There’s An Answer” / “Hang On To Your Ego” and “Here Today” in a laid-bare, explicitly personal way.

Jackass’s Jason “Wee Man” Acuna is such an Ozzy fan, he crossed the ocean to see the Back To The Beginning gig before even having a ticket. (He made it in, Thank God.) The biggest little metalhead on the planet joins Discograffiti in paying tribute to the all-time greatest metal band in a whipcrack-fast three-part series that’ll school you in how metal got started. And to sweeten the pot, we’re only covering the Ozzy era.
Here are just a few of the many things that Wee Man discusses with Discograffiti in Part 2 of this podcast:
The Black Sabbath track that Billy Corgan credited with inventing grunge;
The reason Sabbath downtuned their guitars further on Master Of Reality, and the sub-genres that wound up creating;
How Tony Iommi’s “Sweet Leaf” coughing was captured;
The secret messages planted throughout Vol. 4’s songs and packaging, not to mention its initial jettisoned title;
And an in-depth deep dive on every song off Master Of Reality, Vol. 4, and Sabbath Bloody Sabbath!

The next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series is Chuck’s chat with Tom Frangione, who’s been part of the official Beatles Channel on SiriusXM since its launch in 2017, serving as their 'Resident Beatles Expert'. He co-hosts the weekly "Fab Fourum,” “Apple Jam” with co-host David Fricke, and the weekly rarities program "Way Beyond Compare.” He also writes the weekly show "Across The Universe", which focuses on John Lennon's life and music. Tom is the long-time master of ceremonies at the Fest For Beatles Fans, as well as acting as Contributing Editor to Beatlefan Magazine and Joe Johnson's Beatle Brunch Radio. Above all else, this is hands-down the funniest interview of Chuck’s series.
Here’s just a few of the many things that Tom discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:
Hysterically funny details behind one of the more awkward Brian Wilson interviews that ever went down;
The song Brian once admitted he wished he’d written…and it’s not “Be My Baby”;
And a very smart breakdown of the mid-1960s Beatles / Beach Boys tennis match of inspiration.

Here’s just a few of the many things that Wee Man discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:
A rundown of his experience attending the already-legendary Back To The Beginning gig;
The band’s early days growing out of the late-Sixties British blues scene;
The great allure of turning their debut record around in 48 hours flat that continued to hold appeal as a way of working for some members of the group;
The shockingly depressive underpinning of Geezer’s lyrics for “Paranoid”;
How in the hell Wee Man deals with his Jackass-induced aches & pains;
A look back at Wee Man’s relationship with Billy Barty when he was a kid;
And an in-depth deep dive on every song off Black Sabbath and Paranoid!

The Wrecking Crew is to the Sixties what The Immediate Family are to the Seventies, so it’s no accident that music doc director extraordinaire Denny Tedesco tackled both groups of studio musicians in equally fascinating documentaries. While we’re on the topic of Graham Nash, The Immediate Family became Crosby & Nash’s touring ensemble, nicknamed The Mighty Jitters on the road for reasons we won’t go into here. Here’s just a few of the many things that Denny discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:How Denny’s relationship with his father (Wrecking Crew guitarist Tommy Tedesco) changed after his cancer diagnosis; The ways in which his newest doc The Immediate Family differs from his first, The Wrecking Crew;The cold, hard realities of making an independent film;The toxic relationship between Hal Blaine and Carole Kaye;His incredible upcoming music doc projects;And our mutual dream doc project.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 next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series is Chuck’s chat with French horn player Alan Robinson, the man whose extraordinary playing graces “God Only Knows.” It’s absolutely incredible what a photographic memory Alan possesses—listening to him speak, it’s as if you’re sitting there right beside him, watching Brian Wilson through the control room glass. This interview is an absolute must-hear for Pet Sounds fans.At 21, Alan became the youngest contract member of the 20th Century Fox orchestra, where he played on films like The King & I, Carousel and The Sound Of Music. In the mid-1960s, he discovered that "being a busy session player was more lucrative than symphonic work,” which is how he came to be on Pet Sounds. Among his other pop credits are sessions and/or live shows with Frank Sinatra, Peggy Lee, Neil Diamond, Earth, Wind, & Fire, The 5th Dimension, Johnny Mathis, Elton John, and Paul McCartney & Wings. 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.
