101 Series Lesson 54: The Beach Boys

June 12, 2013

Summer time means a lot of things: bar-b-que, sunshine, zinc on your nose, a good case of heat stroke, some potato salad bloat and the music of Charlie Manson’s second favorite band (even he preferred The Beatles) . . . In Lesson 54 of the 101 Series we spin the well-produced tunes of the Beach Boys. Join us as we travel from the early surf rock all the way to the days when each song had a five french horns, a mellotron, a string section, and no Beach Boys except for the harmony singing . . . Here it is: the Brian Wilson show, featuring Mike Love, Van Dyke Parks, the rest of the Wilsons, their cousins, Glen Campbell, Squeaky Fromme and who ever else woke up in the sandbox.
