“Uh, you are talking about one of my favorite albums. But the name of the album is PET SOUNDS; there is no “SHOP” in the title at all. Brian Wilson would have you publicly flogged for that!”
Ya got me!😪
Not sure how I screwed that pooch, but I did.
I will submit myself to His Majesty Brian Wilson and await my deserved humiliation.
Brian really went the distance for PET SOUNDS.
I read where he wanted the drums recorded in a certain place because he loved the sound there. Guitars were recorded elsewhere and vocals in a third place.
A great album!
Unfortunately the guys in the band wanted more of the stuff they had been doing. They were scared of change I guess.
Think what could have been if they had let Brian go to work with his new sounds.
There is a video on Youtube about the recording of — in my opinion — the best song on the album: God Only Knows. It shows the recording sessions, etc. Paul McCartney once said that God Only Knows was his favorite song, and the greatest song ever written.
