TOM FRANGIONE (The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series) (Ep. 224B)

The next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series is Chuck’s chat with Tom Frangione, who’s been part of the official Beatles Channel on SiriusXM since its launch in 2017, serving as their 'Resident Beatles Expert'. He co-hosts the weekly "Fab Fourum,” “Apple Jam” with co-host David Fricke, and the weekly rarities program "Way Beyond Compare.” He also writes the weekly show "Across The Universe", which focuses on John Lennon's life and music. Tom is the long-time master of ceremonies at the Fest For Beatles Fans, as well as acting as Contributing Editor to Beatlefan Magazine and Joe Johnson's Beatle Brunch Radio. Above all else, this is hands-down the funniest interview of Chuck’s series.

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

  • Hysterically funny details behind one of the more awkward Brian Wilson interviews that ever went down;
  • The song Brian once admitted he wished he’d written…and it’s not “Be My Baby”;
  • And a very smart breakdown of the mid-1960s Beatles / Beach Boys tennis match of inspiration.

There’ll be a short sneak peak running publicly for free, but the entirety of this podcast will only be accessible on the Major Tier of Discograffiti’s Patreon. Don’t miss it, or you’ll only be getting part of the story. Get it as a one-off, or better yet just subscribe…and then we’ll all have world peace.
