DUKES = DUIZELINGWEKKEND

(nl) Vroeger, ooit, lang geleden… had je een glimmend rond gevalletje, genaamd: single.
Je haalde het uit z’n hoesje, voorzichtig, legde het op je pick-up (ook iets van vroeger), palletje op 45-toeren en je ging in veel gevallen voor drie minuten het paradijs binnen.

Waterloo Sunset, Penny Lane/Strawberry Fields, Good Vibrations, See Emily Play…

In deze gouden tijd zat Andy Partridge op de middelbare school met maar 1 doel: ‘Een band beginnen, daarna zouden we in een groot huis wonen met z’n allen, en we zouden de mooiste meisjes krijgen.

KEN SHARP TALKS TO AL JARDINE ABOUT THE BEACH BOYS LEGACY

Quote:

KS: Was it pretty natural where each member would find his place singing harmonies?

AJ: Instantly. And Brian had this wonderful gift of remembering lines off of records.
He’d pick up harmonies off of Four Freshmen records and he’d just feed them right back to us. We’d go, “Woah!” and like a sponge, we just absorbed it.

THE BEACH BOYS AND MYTHIC CALIFORNIA


In his new book, Golden Dreams: California in an Age of Abundance, 1950-1963, University of Southern California professor Kevin Starr writes about California in the years directly after World War II—about the hot rods, surfing, and romance that were at the center of the Silent Generation’s high school years—and about the creation of an idealized California.
