Title: This whole Van Dyke Parks vs. Good Vibrations cello triplets Post by: stack-o-tracks on July 13, 2015, 10:34:20 PM I can't cite my sources, but would swear on my parents' lives that I read some place on the internet this Van Dyke Parks guy refused to write lyrics for the Good Vibrations tune because it was already being worked on before he entered the picture. (re-reading this sentence gave me a headache, but I'm sure the people with a modicum of understanding of the English language will get what I mean)
So lemme get this straight, Dykey wouldn't write words for a melody that was already there, but would write some fuckin' currently non-existing musically cello part for the song? I mean, he probably did, and why the f*** refuse to write something as unimportant as verbal spewage, then be like YOU KNO WHAT WUD SOUND GOOD IS SUM TRIPLETING CHELLOEZ RITE HEERE. So in conclusion, discuss crotchety old men.

One is a full-on collaborative effort. The other was him hanging around a recording studio and suggesting off-the-cuff "Brian, why not have Jesse Ehrlich play triplets on the root notes?". They're incomparable. If he had written lyrics, it would have reflected in the publishing. It's a whole different bag.
