Nights At The Roundtable - The Beach Boys - 1967
The Beach Boys in the studio during the Pet Sounds sessions 1967. Casually putting together a masterpiece.Okay - you're not quite in the mood tonight for Schoenberg and Mahler (via the Mid-Week concert) and don't feel like jumping into something high-voltage, so I was thinking perhaps an excursion over to The Beach Boys and a track off Pet Sounds might be a good antidote for the mid-week madness.
Tonight's track, Don't Talk (Put Your Head On My Shoulder) is probably one of the lesser played songs off that legendary album, but to me it's always been a gem. And tonight we could use a few gems.
If you have the album, it's track 4 - if you don't . . .tsk,tsk,tsk, where have you been?
I know - too many notes, not enough life. That's why we're here to turn you on to things.
Enjoy.





The Pet Sounds sessions were done in the winter and spring of 66..Pet Sounds was released in May of 66...Smile sessions were done later in 66 and into 67...the photo is from the Smile sessions in 67
