[adamghost]

PET SQUARES: A GEEK'S GUIDE TO THE BEACH BOYS Episode #20 is now up: Part 2 of our 7-part closeup on the Beach Boys and Brian Wilson's classic PET SOUNDS album.

PET SQUARES #20 (https://youtu.be/Tk5s_puhTH8) "Pet Sounds Part 2: Actions & Reactions" focuses on the timeline of events surrounding the release of PET SOUNDS, deep diving into the Beach Boys' reactions, the mysterious release of a Brian Wilson solo single, evidence that Capitol Records sabotaged the album, and the undertold story of how Bruce Johnston started an avalanche of success for the album and the Beach Boys in England.

PET SQUARES #21 "Pet Sounds Part 3: Why It's Special" will be coming soon and focus on the musical innovations and influences of the album.

Enjoy this series of episodes and as always, thanks to the patrons and donors to the show and subscribers to the channel.  Also (nothing to do with the Beach Boys but hey), my other series, the adventure/travel show ADAM WALKS AROUND (https://youtu.be/rxrNpsRi8iE) will be returning for a new season in May.

Just finished part two. Very interesting and putting some fresh perspectives on the whole saga. Thank you!

One point you mention that I also always wondered about is that anyone would doubt the commercial potential of an album with "Wouldn't it be nice", "Sloop John B." and "God only knows" plus Brian's "Caroline no" on it.
I'm looking forward to seeing the other parts.
