50 years ago tomorrow, @PaulMcCartney & Wings played the final show of the "Wings Over American" tour. And even all these years later, Maybe I'm Amazed how great this band on the run sounded. youtube.com/watch?v=x_FiIilT…

60 years ago today, The Beach Boys released an album that subsequently defined the ‘60s, ‘Pet Sounds.’ 🐕 Mixing conventional instruments with more uniques tools and techniques, the album features stunning melodies and lyrical themes on love, failed romance, and loss of innocence. What’s your favorite track off the album? Listen to ‘Pet Sounds’ in Hi-Res on Qobuz. 🎧 pen.qobuz.com/album/50999319…

"I learned more from Carl Wilson than I learned from anyone else. He taught me a fuck of a lot of guitar playing. The man is a good guitar player. Carl's a good man and he's just so much fun to be around” - Alex Chilton
#ChurchOfRockAndRoll #81 Golden-voiced Carl Wilson resisted his draft notice to fight in the Vietnam War and sued the government as a conscientious objector. He won. He also led The Beach Boys through a fabulously hip and creative period, 1969-73 #CarlWilson #TheBeachBoys

Replying to @Sonos
@Sonos my expensive system cuts the last 10 seconds off songs on Apple and Tidal music services which I pay for high/rez quality. Embarrassing at parties and super annoying. Please, please fix.
