JIMMY WEBB REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND HIS LOVE FOR BRIAN WILSON & THE BEACH BOYS' PET SOUNDS (Ep. 249)

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, we feature the next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series: it’s Chuck’s chat with legendary songwriter/singer Jimmy Webb. This beautiful little interview serves as the perfect palate cleanser before Discograffiti launches into our unprecedented 21-episode Love Series, which kicks off next week.

Winning the Grammy Award for Song of the Year at the age of 21, Webb has written multiple platinum-selling songs, including ”Up, Up and Away”, “By The Time I Get to Phoenix”, “MacArthur Park”, “Wichita Lineman”, “Worst That Could Happen”, “Galveston”, and “All I Know”. He had successful collaborations with Glen Campbell, Michael Feinstein, Linda Ronstadt, The 5th Dimension, country supergroup The Highwaymen, The Supremes, Art Garfunkel, Richard Harris, and Carly Simon. He’s the only artist ever to receive Grammy Awards for music, lyrics and orchestration.

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

  • What George Martin had told Jimmy about Pet Sounds;
  • The importance of multi-track recording for works like Pet Sounds to even exist;
  • Magic Alex and the freeing possibilities of recording potential during the 1960s, which we now take for granted;
  • Jimmy’s favorite song off Pet Sounds;
  • And the fascinating story about Jimmy’s prospective project with Frank Sinatra, which unfortunately never got off the ground.
