Hello all,
Glad to see the board is up and running again. Wanted to let you know that my cohost Phil Miglioratti and I recently dropped a new episode of
Surf's Up: A Beach Boys Podcast Safari paying tribute to the late great Billy Hinsche. I shared a lot of info from my interview with Billy for my book, much of which ended up on the cutting-room floor. We discuss his days in Dino, Desi & Billy, the official Beach Boys membership offer he got but couldn't accept, cowriting "Lady Love" with Brian and "Away" with Dennis, unreleased lead vocals on BB tracks, and more. We hope this adds a little bit to the discussion about Billy's place in the band's story. You can find us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Audible, Amazon Alexa, Facebook Mobile and on SoundCloud here:
