Does anyone know who wrote this article?  I found it in Priore's big yellow book. It is a great article. It seems to have a lot of cross over with the Jules Siegel article.  Could it be Paul Williams?  My guess is that it is not Williams.  Maybe Derek Taylor?  Thanks for any help.

Top of the head, I'm pretty sure that's from a UK music weekly.

If it is from Teenset (and I do bow to AGD's superior knowledge), then maybe Earl Leaf? Was he still writing for them at that time?

My bad - I was thinking of a different article entirely (which was from a UK paper - my excuse, such as it is, is that this article was accompanied by a drawing of Brian as puppeteer with the others as his puppets). having read the article in question, it's patently from the US. Cam might know.

If memory serves me correctly from some old SMiLE shop post from years ago, I believe it's a Mike Vosse article.

Wow.  Thanks for the info.  Knowing Vosse is the author changes the tone of the article for me.  Good to know what angle it was written from.  Much thanks!  Once again, the SS board proves to be an amazing resource.

Also,  Teen Set was a marketing/publicity concoction of Capitol Records.

And I'm lucky enough to have a close-to mint condition of the Teen Set that has the full color SMiLE advert on the back of it!

Just reread that article last night and it is indeed a good one--along with that interview he did for Fusion in '69.

Indeed - the Fusion piece is fascinating, as much for what isn't said as for what is.

Agreed. Any omissions you found especially noteworthy?

Weird bit from a Ramones article I read on rocksbackpages.com:
Quote
RECORDING ON END Of The Century began at Gold Star Studios in Los Angeles, on May 1, 1979 – the Ramones immediately freaked out by the presence of large oxygen tanks (designed by Brian Wilson) and an underground swimming pool that doubled as an echo chamber.
That's crazy. They let Brian take his quirky sense of home design to their studio.

I too would be interested in what AGD thought wasn't said (that should have been?) in the Fusion article.
