THE BEACH BOYS’ PET SOUNDS DEEP-DIVE: “Caroline, No” (Part 7) (Ep. 232)

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, Beach Boys author Chuck Granata reviews and discusses Pet Sounds’ “Caroline, No” with commentary and stories. Discograffiti’s Pet Sounds Deep-Dive Series stands as a unique combination of factual obsession and personal connection, and there’s nothing else quite like it. This is the final episode.

Here are just a few of the many things that Chuck discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:

  • How Pet Sounds’ final track differs from the rest of the record;
  • The many possible Carolines who may have inspired the song;
  • What writing the song wound up setting in motion for Brian, as he attempted to reconnect with his high school crush, Carol Mountain;
  • An intensive breakdown of the song’s mysterious coda;
  • And how both Chuck and I connect with “Caroline, No” in a laid-bare, explicitly personal way.
