Re: Pet Sounds

Pet Sounds – an absolutely classic album, such harmonic mastery. Good pick with God Only Knows! It was fun to listen to it again! There was a good documentary about Brian Wilson, and among other things, the making of God Only Knows and how Brian was determined to have that big thump sound that you hear in the very beginning of the song – having the band play it repeatedly, to his liking.

A friend gave us a recording of Pet Sounds vocal outtakes, it was very cool. Same with Marvin Gaye – just his voice out-takes prior to mixing – you really hear the genius of their voices. I don’t know what happened to those tapes! Yes, we still have tapes! :-)

I saw the Beach Boys in NY when I was 15, shortly after my first trip to CA (my first solo air travel). After which I knew I wanted to live in CA. After staying in Ojai/Ventura/Santa Barbara/Newport Beach – I was in love. So, at the concert, I was a screaming teenager in the audience saying, “I’m moving to CA.” Little did my family realize at the time that I was serious! :-) I saved-up money during High School and then when it came time to go to College, I ended-up in Northern CA, which is gorgeous! It changed the trajectory of my life.
