The Beach Boys’ “Love You”

BRIAN WILSON WITHOUT THE BEACH BOYS! It’s the "August Of Summer" here on Detours and Outliers and we are celebrating by a whole month of episodes about the quintessential band of summer, the Beach Boys. Did Brian Wilson predict the sound of the 1980s? Would you rather hear a middle aged man sing about teenage romance or about a late-night talk show host? Is Brian a better drummer or lyricist? How did George Lucas screw up the Beach Boys? Can you name two good albums by Bread? Was the album cover actually cross-stitched? How much does round-the-clock therapy cost? Does "Ding Dang" need anything else? And most importantly: What do the planets mean? Catch a wave and find out on this episode of Detours and Outliers.
