Oh good, I'm glad Gil thought it was important to pay his respects and remind everyone that he has the all-time shittiest, most uncultured take on anything ever.  

I've started watching the doc linked earlier in this thread & now whenever I hear Brian Wilson's voice in it all I hear is Carl Spackler.

So I've got that going for me. Which is nice.

Gil also doesn't know why Chuck Berry is held in high regard. How many people have Sweet Little Sixteen on their Spotify playlist?

I grew up playing a shitload of Chuck Berry, like every other guitar player. 

My band(s) were never interested in covering "Sloop John B" for some reason. 

 

Oh I'm pretty sure we know the reason.

Here's another strange Brian Wilson story from Otis.

said the guy that has "My ding a ling" on his playlist.

At this point, this thread has no particular place to go.

 

Oops...wrong thread.

I guess I just wasn't made for these times.

Most any Chuck except "My Ding A Ling".

Must have been hard typing that message….with both hands on your ding-a-ling-a-ling. 

Wilson's passing unexpectedly sent me on a path to learn more about the Beach. To me, the craziest part is how they (their father) sold off the Beach Boys master and publishing rights, even though the ultimately were able to get a percentage of them back.

Could only imagine how much they lost by that short term decision. Similar story with the Beatles. But I guess at the time, they didn't anticipate the commercialization of music over time.
