189B. SNEAK PEEK: BECOMING THE BEACH BOYS AUTHOR JAMES B. MURPHY REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE BAND'S EARLY DAYS (PART 2, JULY 1961 - APRIL 1962)

Welcome to a sneak peek of the very first episode of Discograffiti’s epic Beach Boys series “And Your Dreams Come True.” Part Two of Discograffiti’s interview with Author James B. Murphy covers the release of The Beach Boys’ debut single “Surfin” and the success that lay ahead for them. Murphy’s book “Becoming The Beach Boys 1961-1963” stands as the perfect companion piece to our Season One, “Catch A Wave, (1961-1964).” Don’t miss the full episode on our Patreon, or you’ll only be getting part of the story!
