Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, the next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series, Discograffiti presents Part 3 of Chuck’s chat with Tony Asher, Brian Wilson’s lyrical collaborator on Pet Sounds. This is easily the best, most honest and unguarded Tony Asher interview in existence. Huge thank you to Chuck.

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

The tantalizing pitch to rewrite some Beach Boys lyrics that Tony wound up turning down (Director’s Cut only);
How his work writing jingles for Mattel toys dovetailed creatively into his experience working with Brian (Director’s Cut only);
Granular details of his very first hang with Brian;
The grand total of Beach Boys LPs that Tony Asher owns;
His opinion of pre-Pet Sounds Beach Boys lyrics;
And details surrounding the wild Loren Schwartz parties which the two men both attended.
