ENDLESS SUMMER: MIKE LOVE ON WHY BEACH BOYS MUSIC HAS OUTLASTED SO MANY OTHERS

QUOTE:
Besides the Everly Brothers and Little Richard, the group Love and the others respected most was The Temptations.

“They were unbelievably great. Ball of Confusion, Papa Was a Rolling Stone, Cloud Nine. The Temptations, in my opinion, were on a par with The Beatles and the Beach Boys. They just didn’t get the print we did.”

'AGONY' AUNT: PHIL SPECTOR GETS A SYMPATHETIC EAR

Documentary

Were it not for the two murder trials of music producer Phil Spector — he of the Wall of Sound and the spectacularly big hair — it's unlikely that Vikram Jayanti's made-for-British-TV documentary about him would ever have made it into American movie theaters.
