HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO AL JARDINE: The Wayback Machine lands on Summer 1981: I was flying from San Francisco to Harrisburg, Pennsylvania to visit family and friends. While changing planes in Pittsburgh, imagine my surprise to see The Beach Boys entourage (minus Carl Wilson, who wasn’t on that tour) waiting at the gate, headed to Harrisburg for a run-off gig. I conversed with Brian Wilson, Bruce Johnston, Al Jardine, Mike Love, and Dennis Wilson. During the flight, they let me pick their brains about songs, studio craft, songwriting, etc.—my opener was to talk about “Celebrate the News.” Al was very interested in the landscape as we looked out the windows. It occurred to me to compare Appalachia to Big Sur but my mind drifted… 

Years later, back in California, I was demo’ing on the keyboard, thinking I was homesick for my native PA. Out of nowhere the line “I Wanna Be-in Pennsylvania” flew into my head, modeled after tribute songs to American places made by The Beach Boys. The final take was expertly mixed by Rusty Richards (Julie Miller, Brian Wilson) and features guest vocals by Mike Roe (The 77s). Meanwhile, Happy Birthday Al, and thank you for your years of bringing musical joy to the world.

Cass Elliot’s fourth solo album from 1972 includes belting covers of two of my favourite songs of the moment: Disney Girls (1957) by The Beach Boys (and featuring Bruce and Carl), and Jesus Was A Cross Maker by Judee Sill (see yesterday’s post). The cover photo is by Hollywood golden age photographer George Hurrell. #casselliot #judeesill #beachboys #brucejohnston #randynewman #carlwilson #70smusic #albumart #albumcovers #vinyl #artonpaper #brushpen #watercolour #mamacass #themamasandthepapas (at Vine Street) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTYGyHKtJyk/?utm_medium=tumblr

6月27日はブルース・ジョンストンの誕生日。ブラザー/リプリーズ移籍第1弾。セールス的にはさっぱりなアルバムだけど良曲多くて大好き。不在がちなブライアンの穴を他のメンバーがしっかりサポート。特にデニス・ウィルソンとブルースのソングライティングが光る。次作『Surf's Up』収録の「Disney Girls」もブルース作の名バラード。 小泉八雲、Ｊ・Ｐ・ホーガン、ヘレン・ケラーも6月27日生まれ。 Sunflower (70) / The Beach Boys #happybirthday #brucejohnston #thebeachboys #cd #nowspinning https://www.instagram.com/p/CB66-AlgUjx/?igshid=1rh67nmc7baj1

We had a really fun VIP last night featuring Bruce Johnston. It was cool two watch two great vocalists discuss their approach to singing and discuss other great vocalists. And really cool to hear Bruce’s stories of Frank Sinatra performing his song, collaborating with Elton John and hanging out with so many greats. Next week we discuss great songwriters and the approach to song writing with Bruce, who once won a grammy for song of the year. Join us.

ブルースジョンストン『Going Public』。このアルバムから芋づる式に辿って聴いた米ポップスの宝の数々…。B面ラストのディスコ調「PIPELINE」はいつも飛ばしてしまいますが…🤔 #brucejohnston #beachboys #ビーチボーイズ #garyusher
