189. THE BEACH BOYS’ DAVID MARKS REVEALS THE FULL STORY BEHIND WHY HE'S BITTER ABOUT HIS TREATMENT IN THE BAND (PART 1)

This interview began with an innocent phone call placed to Beach Boy David Marks asking if it was possible to one day do an interview, and it became clear very quickly that this WAS the interview.  No prep, no notes, no Zoom even…honestly, I was just holding on for dear life.     What followed, in my opinion, was the most honest interview in Discograffiti history.  There was no other way to begin this season (Catch A Wave: 1961-1964), not to mention the series as a whole. Although not representative of what’s to follow, welcome to the first free episode of Discograffiti’s epic Beach Boys series “And Your Dreams Come True.”    Here’s just a few of the many things David discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast:   How embarrassed he is by the music he created with The Beach Boys; The attempts Murry Wilson made to get with David’s mother; His true feelings about each of the guys in the band; And the unheralded touches of production genius that Murry Wilson brought to The Beach Boys’ early material. I support a wife and a six-year-old son with Discograffiti as my sole source of income.    If you’re a BEACH BOYS superfan like me, you’ll want THE DIRECTOR’S CUT of this episode.
