Tony Asher (Part 2) (The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series) (Ep. 220B)


Listen Later

The next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series is Part 2 of Chuck’s chat with Tony Asher, Brian Wilson’s lyrical collaborator on Pet Sounds. This is easily the best Tony Asher interview in existence. You won’t want to miss a minute of this multi-part extravaganza. All I can say is: Thank you, Chuck.   


Here’s just a few of the many things that Tony discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:


  • How Brian & Tony felt about Pet Sounds as they were making it;
  • The song that Tony felt knocked Brian out the hardest;
  • A rundown of the tactics Tony employed to convince Brian to use the title “God Only Knows”;
  • Tony’s favorite on the album, plus the single most difficult set of lyrics he was tasked to write;
  • A scene-setting of the first time Tony ever heard the completed record;
  • And the deal Tony struck with Murry Wilson, not to mention that one time he had to deal with him.
