Description: 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.    Listen: linktr.ee/discograffiti   I support a wife and a six-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income.    If you’re a Beach Boys or Graham Nash superfan like me, The Director’s Cut of this episode is ad-free and features 14 additional minutes of essential material.    Purchase The Director’s Cut as a one-off at https://www.patreon.com/discograffiti   Subscribe to Discograffiti’s Patreon at the Major Tier and receive a ceaseless barrage (4 shows a week) of must-hear binge-listening: Patreon.com/Discograffiti   CONNECT Join our Soldiers of Sound Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1839109176272153 Patreon: www.Patreon.com/Discograffiti Podfollow: ⁠⁠https://podfollow.com/1592182331⁠⁠ YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClyaQCdvDelj5EiKj6IRLhw Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/discograffitipod/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Discograffiti/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/Discograffiti Order the Digital version of the METAL MACHINE MUZAK 2xLP (feat.
