S1 Ep 1197. SEASON 1 FINALE: AUTHOR JON STEBBINS REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE BEACH BOYS’ ALL SUMMER LONG (PART 1)

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.” Part 1 of Discograffiti's 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. Here’s just a few of the many things that Jon discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The hard-to-argue theory that the sessions that devolved into chaos with Murry present wound up giving them number one singles; The importance of “I Get Around” topping the charts when it did; How “I Get Around” begat the hip-hop boast; The origin point of the Beatles/Beach Boys rivalry; The only topic that gets Brian to join the conversation; And an in-depth breakdown of Side 1 of the All Summer Long LP!

S1 Ep 1196. THE SMITHEREENS’ DENNIS DIKEN REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE BEACH BOYS’ SHUT DOWN VOLUME 2

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!

S1 Ep 1195C. SNEAK PEEK OF PRODUCER RUSS TITELMAN & ENDLESS SUMMER QUARTERLY EDITOR DAVID BEARD REVEAL THE FULL STORY BEHIND BRIAN WILSON’S OUTSIDE PRODUCTIONS

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.

S1 Ep 318195. AUTHOR JON STEBBINS REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE WILD & RESTLESS TALE OF DAVID MARKS AFTER THE BEACH BOYS

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.

S1 Ep 1194B. BEACH BOYS MANAGER FRED VAIL REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE BEACH BOYS’ CONCERT

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.

S1 Ep 194194. THE PATTI SMITH GROUP'S LENNY KAYE & THE SMITHEREENS' DENNIS DIKEN REVEAL THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE BEACH BOYS’ LITTLE DEUCE COUPE

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.

S1 Ep 1193B. SNEAK PEEK OF JELLYFISH'S JASON FALKNER & PRODUCER RUSS TITELMAN REVEAL THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE BEACH BOYS’ SURFER GIRL

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.

S1 Ep 193193. WILSON PHILLIPS' CARNIE WILSON REVEALS HER TEN FAVORITE RECORDS BY DAD BRIAN WILSON'S BAND THE BEACH BOYS (PART 3)

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.

S1 Ep 1190B. SNEAK PEEK: BIOGRAPHER JAMES B. MURPHY REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE BEACH BOYS’ SURFIN SAFARI

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.

S1 Ep 1190. THE BEACH BOYS’ DAVID MARKS REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND WHY HE'S BITTER ABOUT HIS TREATMENT IN THE BAND (PART 2)

This interview began with an innocent phone call placed to Beach Boy David Marks asking if it was possible to one day do an interview, and it became clear very quickly that this WAS the interview. No prep, no notes, no Zoom even…honestly, I was just holding on for dear life. What followed, in my opinion, was the most honest interview in Discograffiti history. Here’s just a few of the many things David discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The Beach Boys songs on which David feels he’s getting screwed out of royalties; The real truth behind his ousting from the band, as David sees it; His wildly honest assessment of The Beach Boys albums that came after Pet Sounds; And, in a Director’s Cut exclusive, the incredible story of how his two blank-check budget LPs with The Moon came together.

No prep, no notes, no Zoom even…honestly, I was just holding on for dear life. What followed, in my opinion, was the most honest interview in Discograffiti history. There was no other way to begin this season (Catch A Wave: 1961-1964), not to mention the series as a whole. Although not representative of what’s to follow, welcome to the first free episode of Discograffiti’s epic Beach Boys series “And Your Dreams Come True.” Here’s just a few of the many things David discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: How embarrassed he is by the music he created with The Beach Boys; The attempts Murry Wilson made to get with David’s mother; His true feelings about each of the guys in the band; And the unheralded touches of production genius that Murry Wilson brought to The Beach Boys’ early material.

S1 Ep 188188. THE BEATLES’ PETE BEST REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND HIS FIRING FROM THE BAND AND HOW HE COPED WITH BEING KICKED OUT

Discograffiti is kicking off 2025 with a biggie, our searingly honest interview with the world’s most notorious case of right-place-right-time strike-out. You know him, primarily for what he never got to do. It’s The Beatles’ Pete Best, who’s had the dubious distinction of having to live his life in the shadow of missed opportunity. Here’s just a few of the many things Pete and I discuss in this podcast: Details of the exciting announcement around The Casbah Club’s re-opening as an airbnb destination; An exploration of the six possible reasons for Pete’s dismissal from the band that became the biggest cultural force on planet Earth within weeks of his sacking; And an in-depth examination of the survival skills that allowed him to deal with the explosion of Beatlemania. Listen: linktree.ee/discograffiti I support a wife and a six-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income.

S1 Ep 187187. THE APPLES IN STEREO'S ROBERT SCHNEIDER REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND HIS RELATIONSHIP TO MUSIC AND ELEPHANT 6

E

This off-the-cuff interview with Robert Schneider, which went down spontaneously after our Strawberry Alarm Clock conversation concluded, unexpectedly became a tidal wave of incredibly moving, impassioned notions about identity and fulfillment. And although it preceded Will Cullen Hart’s untimely passing, much of it seems to pre-empt the tragic event lying in wait just around the bend. Here’s just a few of the many things Robert and I discuss in this podcast: The superfluousness of LSD to the middle-aged brain; The levels of fulfillment Robert gets from music vs. math at this point in his life; The background origin story of the Elephant 6 Enthusiasts Facebook Group; How his musical path will likely look just around the bend; The massive impact Bill Doss’s death had on his identity; And Robert’s favorite Apples In Stereo LP. Listen: https://linktr.ee/discograffiti I support a wife and a five-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income.

S1 Ep 183183. SONIC BOOM (A.K.A. PETE KEMBER)) REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND SPACEMEN 3 AND RATES ALL THEIR RECORDS (PART 1: THE EARLY DAZE)

E

With Dave’s Mom undergoing home hospice during the taping of this episode, this 6 1/2 hour interview series literalizes the ego-death slant of this classic psych band's lyrics. Whether or not you’re on drugs, Spacemen 3 has the absolute best music to keep you grounded during life’s rollercoaster freakouts. Here’s just a few of the many things Pete and I discuss in this podcast: The creative advantages of favoring electric razor and washing machine sounds to band-created music as his building blocks of influence; His early days at art college, as his friendship with Jason Pierce started shooting out sparks; And a Discograffiti first: a narcotics deep-dive during which Pete reveals the substances that had the largest influence on the Spacemen 3 sound. Not to mention, in a Director’s Cut exclusive, a convincing diatribe on the life-sustaining power of plant farts.

S1 Ep 1182. THE RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS’ BILL MEDLEY REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE GROUP'S HISTORY AND THEIR SONGS (PART 2)

E

I’m going to let Bill Medley explain why this one’s a must-hear: “This is one of the most unbelievable interviews I’ve ever done in my life, and I appreciate it, and I thank you—I can retire now. It’s been an honor, it’s been a lot of fun. You’ve asked me a lot of questions that I’ve never been asked before, and probably brought more out of me than I wanted to give--or should give--but hey, it is what it is, and I love you for it.” Here’s just some of the many things Bill and I touch on in this podcast: The real reason why he actually left The Righteous Brothers back in 1968; His hilarious three-month-long love affair with marijuana in 1970; What inspired their 1974 reunion; And unforgettable, heartbreaking details of Bobby Hatfield’s death scene, onto which Bill stumbled in 2003.

E

Jenny Toomey & Kristin Thomson—arguably the two women most responsible for the ceaseless onslaught of incredible indie music in the 1990s due to the Simple Machines Records label and their explosively powerful band Tsunami—go head-to-head-to-head with Discograffiti during an unprecedented 3-hour interview during which they discuss the entirety of their catalog, which thankfully is being reissued today by Numero Group in a lovingly compiled box set entitled Loud Is As. Do yourself a big favor and get yourself one. Here’s just some of the many things Jenny, Kristen, and I touch on in this podcast: The story of how and why their label Simple Machines Records came to be; A track-by-track discographical discussion of everything they’ve ever released; And why the band finally decided to initially call it a day.

E

In a Discograffiti first, my interview with Howard Jones focuses exclusively on the decade-plus period when he followed his musical dreams while the universe ignored him almost completely. The Director’s Cut on our Patreon page also includes an in-depth, 30-minute, track-by-track discussion of his masterful debut, Humans Lib. Here’s just some of the many things Howard and I touch on in this podcast: Rare details on Howard’s very first band, the 1971 prog outfit Warrior; Why the manager who broke him internationally initially turned him down before changing his mind; And the ways in which Howard was able to stay grounded when an explosion of superstardom followed over a decade of obscurity!

E

This sequel to the Tom Morello MC5 episode goes deep on an exploration of the just-released Heavy Lifting LP, along with its producer, the great Bob Ezrin, producer of such classics as Pink Floyd’s The Wall, Kiss’s Destroyer, and Alice Cooper’s Billion Dollar Babies. Here’s just some of the many things Bob and I touch on in this podcast: Bob’s work as the king of the rock opera, specifically on Lou Reed’s Berlin, about which I was able to ask him a question I’ve been literally waiting to ask since I was 14 years old (this section is only available in The Director’s Cut of this episode); The fascinating story of how this record started off as a Wayne Kramer film project and wound up transforming into an MC5 LP; Plus, a deep-dive discussion about the brand-new, yet final MC5 record, Heavy Lifting!

In this unforgettable podcast, Tom pays tribute to both the band and the recently departed Wayne Kramer, the band’s legendary guitarist/songwriter and his close personal friend. Here’s just some of the many things Tom and I touch on in this podcast: Why Tom feels that the MC5 are the spiritual forebears to Rage Against The Machine; A moving glimpse into Tom and Wayne’s friendship and the far-reaching work they did with Jail Guitar Doors; Plus, incendiary discussions about their early singles, Kick Out The Jams, Back In The USA, High Time, and their incredible new opus, Heavy Lifting!

E

Talking with Robert Schneider is like riding a rollercoaster that’s not quite tethered to its track—with all the thrills an experience like that portends, and none of the danger. Needless to say, collaborating with him on this show has been one of the most invigorating experiences of my life. Here’s just some of the many things Robert and I touch on in this podcast: An imagined series of reasonings to explain why The Strawberry Alarm Clock would choose to leapfrog from string-laden hippie elevator music to blues rock; An incredibly intimate rendering of a “Good Morning Starshine”-based jingle that served as young Robert’s very first hit; And wildly caffeinated rundowns of the Good Morning Starshine LP, not to mention (in a Director’s Cut exclusive) the slew of incredible 45s that marked the end of the line for the band!

Here’s just some of the many things Cassandra and I touch on in Part 2 of this podcast: How she transitioned from deciding to throw in the towel entirely on her career, to making the best music of her life; In-depth, track-by-track discussions of An Overview On Phenomenal Nature and My Light, My Destroyer; And, most importantly, a primer on how to maintain a successful career established upon “f*ck it” energy when you actually start to care a lot. Listen: https://podfollow.com/1592182331⁠⁠ I support a wife and a five-year-old son with Discograffiti’s Patreon and tips as my sole sources of income.

S1 Ep 1169. QUEASY LISTENING: THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE DARK SIDE OF DEBBY BOONE'S “YOU LIGHT UP MY LIFE”

E

The biggest hit single of the 1970s spent ten weeks at number one. If you weren’t alive at the time, then there’s no way to adequately describe how torturous that period truly was. Yet the deeper I dug in my research for this episode, the more nauseated I became. The tale of this song has to be heard to be believed. It is truly epically horrendous. Here’s just a few of the many things Discograffiti O.G. Joe Kennedy and I discuss in this podcast: A mini-history of some of the biggest runaway hits of all time, of which this is most certainly up there; The weird, messed-up background of its writer and creator; And a seemingly never-ending tale of criminal depravity that’ll leave you slack-jawed with disbelief by the end!

S1 Ep 1167. CHRIS COHEN REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND HIS ENTIRE CAREER & RATES ALL HIS RECORDS (PART 2: THE SELF-TITLED 2019 ALBUM ABOUT HIS DAD & PAINT A ROOM)

E

First in Deerhoof and then on his own over four consistently brilliant solo LPs (including the brand-new Hardly Art release Paint A Room), Chris Cohen’s been gifting us with projects over the last 25 years that’ve run the gamut stylistically. Massive success inevitably beckons, and that’s the objective truth. Here’s just a few of the things Chris and I discuss in this podcast: How his creative process fundamentally shifted for the construction of his brilliant new LP, Paint A Room; A shockingly bare and extremely in-depth discussion of his father’s addictions and indiscretions, not to mention the trauma that created for Chris (which was then funneled into the autobiographical bravery of his third album); And a song-by-song analysis of both Paint A Room and 2019’s self-titled LP! I support a wife and a five-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income. If you love the episode, please see fit to toss me a tip.

S1 Ep 1165. MICHAEL IMPERIOLI REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE SMITHS AND RATES THEIR RECORDS (PART 2: THE QUEEN IS DEAD, LOUDER THAN BOMBS, & STRANGEWAYS HERE WE COME)

E

One of the greatest actors of all time—The Sopranos’ Michael Imperioli—is also a confirmed, dyed-in-the-wool music nerd and songwriter in his own right. The Smiths came along and changed the game for him, and Discograffiti needed to find out exactly why. Here’s just a few of the things Michael and I discuss in Part Two of this podcast series: In-depth discussions of The Queen Is Dead, Louder Than Bombs, and Strangeways Here We Come; Michael’s favorite few Morrissey solo songs; And sections in the Patreon Ultimate Cut detailing the vitriol-fueled end of the band, all four members’ post-Smiths musical endeavors, and their travails in court as they battled it out for royalties! I support a wife and a five-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income. If you love the episode, please Venmo me a tip @ David-Gebroe, or see below for other ways to support the show! Pretty please. Listen: https://podfollow.com/1592182331 If you’re a Smiths superfan like me, you’ll want the DIRECTOR’S CUT of this episode.

E

The Smiths came along and changed the game for him, and Discograffiti needed to find out exactly why. Here’s just a few of the things Michael and I discuss about The Smiths: Why the group made such a huge impact on a young Michael Imperioli at that particular time of his life; The song that Johnny Marr describes as what Joni Mitchell would’ve done if she had been an MC5 fan; And in-depth dissections of The Smiths’ self-titled debut, Hatful Of Hollow, and Meat Is Murder!

S1 Ep 1163. TOM BAILEY OF THE THOMPSON TWINS REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND HIS CAREER AND RATES ALL HIS OWN RECORDS

E

The Thompson Twins were one of the greatest bands of the early MTV era, pumping out hit after hit while offering an emotional resonance that transcended the typical chart fare. Singer/songwriter Tom Bailey is still very much at it, making vital new music and touring, and he doesn’t shy away from the difficult questions. He’s a terrific interview. Here’s just some of the many things we touch on in this podcast: The Thompson Twins’ barely known origins as a 7-person post-punk outfit that played thoroughly unhinged live shows; How their first huge hit wound up making more than half the band’s members redundant; And the incredible ad hoc superstar version of the band that was assembled to play a one-off performance at Live Aid! Listen: https://podfollow.com/1592182331 If you love the episode, please Venmo me a tip @ David-Gebroe. I support a wife and a five-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income.

S1 Ep 1162. SANDY, BRUCE, & ELLEN DEDRICK OF THE FREE DESIGN REVEAL THE FULL STORY BEHIND THEIR ENTIRE CAREER (PART 3: STARS/TIME/BUBBLES/LOVE, VERY IMPORTANT PEOPLE, ONE BY ONE, THERE IS A SONG, & PEEKABOO)

E

There is one sunshine pop band that stands as the greatest example of the genre, and that one band is The Free Design. They had one 1967 hit, “Kites Are Fun”—it hit #114, and that was it. But that’s only the beginning… In Part 3 of this unprecedented 5 1/2 hour interview with 3/4 of the original brother-sister quartet, Discograffiti explores the history and output of the band with appropriately fawning adoration. Here’s just a choice sampling of what’s bandied about in this podcast: Why the band began disintegrating, and the reasons behind Bruce’s departure; The hard left into the weird world of The Starscape Singers, the Canadian chorale into which most of The Free Design were absorbed after the band split; And a deep-dive exploration of Stars/Time/Bubbles/Love, Free Design Sings For Very Important People, One By One, There Is A Song, and Peekaboo!
