Every band has to start somewhere and every song writer has their first song. Lennon and McCartney had "Love Me Do", but what about Brian Wilson? What was the first song that he wrote that became a Beach Boy single and who produced it? We visit Hawthorne, California for that story and then we are off to The Big Apple.
The Beatles opened for Roy Orbison, Hendrix opened for The Monkees and Bruce Springsteen opened for a Canadian icon in New York City in 1974. He was third on the bill, which included a one hit wonder. Can you guess who was the main act?
Finally, Dr. Brian May. Yes, he is the professor of the guitar, but he is a genuine professor. And it took him quite a while to complete his rather interesting thesis. We explore that on The Way-Back Music Machine.
All that, plus our Beatles moment, charts and great banter on this episode of The Way-back Music Machine.
