MARILYN WILSON-RUTHERFORD & GINGER BLAKE OF THE HONEYS, The Beach Boys’ Sister Group (Part 1, Ep. 215)

Here’s just a few of the many things that Marilyn & Ginger discuss with Discograffiti in this podcast:

  • What the group was like before they bumped into Brian Wilson;
  • The amazing way station for rock and roll talent that was the Rovell household, and the ways in which Brian fundamentally changed the family for the better;
  • How Marilyn feels about Mike Love’s current touring version of The Beach Boys;
  • An in-depth discussion of their first few classic 45s;
  • And a talk about how much of an inspiration Marilyn was in Brian’s music and lyrics.

Recorded just after granddaughter Lola Bonfiglio made it onto American Idol, but before Brian’s recent passing, this delightful yet intensive 4-hour interview with two-thirds of The Beach Boys’ Sister Group—cousins Ginger and Marilyn—covers all the projects both under Marilyn’s former husband Brian Wilson’s guiding hand and the records made of their own volition.  If you mistakenly thought they were just a female knock-off act, then prepare yourself for a glorious education.
