188B. SNEAK PEEK: BECOMING THE BEACH BOYS AUTHOR JAMES B. MURPHY REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND THE BAND'S EARLY DAYS (PART 1, JUNE 1942 - JULY 1961)

Welcome to a sneak peek of the very first episode of Discograffiti’s epic Beach Boys series “And Your Dreams Come True.” Episode 1 explores the origin story of America’s band, along with author James B.

There is no other Patreon in existence where you get more for your money. 4 shows a week is what it takes these days to successfully blot out our unacceptable reality…so do yourself a favor and give it a shot for at least one month to see what I’m talking about.
