BBC Radio 4 ran a great 'Lost Albums' Doc on Dennis's 'Bambu', running at about 25 mins.

Really enjoyable!

Check it out on Listen Again right here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/

Just heard this doc and wondered if the link had been posted here. I have not been disappointed: nice work Luke!

Pete Paphides (now chief rock critic with The Times - apparently) gives a very positive assessment of Dennis Wilson's legacy, even if he calls "Fifth of July" one of the great Dennis Wilson contributions to the Beach Boys! (I don't even consider myself a first division BB fan and I still get a snobbish kick out of spotting mistakes like this). Good to hear the actual voices of family, friends and associates. I still wonder to what extent Bambu was ever really considered an album project as opposed to a bunch of occasional sessions (the doc leaves this kinda vague).

Anyway, it looks like Dennis Wilson is  getting a lot of attention this summer. And this can only be a good thing. I can't wait for the POB reissue. Haven't been this excited since August '04!

That was great. It was really nice to hear all the things everyone had to say, especially Carol and Carl.

Fifth of July...probably a British thing... Wink

I think Dennis had a two-record deal with Caribou, and a follow-up to POB was definitely expected.  It just dragged on and on with no end in sight due to his personal problems.
