Welcome to Season 3 of “The Beach Boys: And Your Dreams Come True!” This season focuses solely on Pet Sounds, and stands as the most in-depth investigation of a single record ever enacted in Discograffiti history. The Beach Boys’ 11th LP changed a lot of lives, not least of which the man who brought his effortlessly breezy pop charm to The Hollies, Crosby, Stills, Nash, & Young, and his own solo career. In fact, this episode stands as the launching point of a huge Graham Nash series—his longest interview of all time—which will air concurrently with this unprecedented Pet Sounds showcase.
Here’s just a few of the many things that Graham discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:
- Why Graham’s journey to achieve greatness may have begun with The Hollies’ terrible attempt at “Marrakesh Express”;
- A peek into Crosby, Stills, & Nash’s formation;
- The incredible method The Hollies used to test out their final mixes (Director’s Cut only);
- The frustrating story behind the lost CSN album Human Highway (Director’s Cut only);
- Why it was felt that the chaos-evoking Neil Young was an essential ad to the group (Director’s Cut only);
- Whether Graham is ultimately a Beach Boys fan or a Brian Wilson fan;
- The songs in which Graham felt he came closest to the vulnerable intimacy of Pet Sounds;
- And how important LSD was to the person that Graham became.
