Description: In Part 2 of my amazing discussion with two-thirds of The Honeys, Marilyn, Ginger, and I work our way through some wildly emotional terrain, including what it was like to share lives with a creative genius while he was operating at his peak.   Here’s just a few of the many things that Marilyn & Ginger discuss with Discograffiti in this podcast:   How Marilyn felt about Brian’s Smile-era decor in their Laurel Way home; Their thoughts on the Smile-era music, not to mention their ever-evolving lifestyle; What it was like being produced by Murry; The story behind American Spring, and the wonderful music that act produced; The Honeys’ two latter-day LPs; Their late-1960s singles, and the slew of wonderful guest appearances on other artists’ records (Director’s Cut only); And how the ladies feel about Pet Sounds lyric collaborator Tony Asher.   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 superfan like me, The Director’s Cut of this episode is ad-free and features 20 additional minutes of essential material.    Subscribe to Discograffiti’s Patreon at the Major Tier and receive a ceaseless barrage (4 shows a week) of must-hear binge-listening: ⁠⁠ https://www.patreon.com/discograffiti   Or just purchase The Director’s Cut as a one-off at ⁠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.
