I think Melcher was referring to Spector's layering technique. He was saying that Spector layered the sounds with "anger", "brutally" (or "heavily", to use one of your terms), whereas Brian would do it "in a delicate way".  Which I think is quite true. Smiley

That said, both techniques are interesting and have produced magnificent results!



...And may I suggest a more restrictive use of the suspension points, and a less restrictive use of paragraphs?  Cheesy

Yes, i think Melcher meant that Spector had a much harder rocking sound, to which I agree and I believe Brian himself said something to that effect too.  Brian was very much for harmony and did a beautiful sound but Spector just had that rock and roll-thing (Brian too but not that hard imo)

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

I remember that Melcher Interview.  Maybe Terry was referring to the differing personalities of Braian and Spector and what those personalities brought to the music.   Phil brought his Napoleonic persona to the studio.  Brian brough his bruised little boy persona into the mix.

To tell you the truth, I really don't think he was talking about that.
