Q:
A:
|
Who
is your all-time favorite recording
artist?
I
have so many, including The Beatles, Billy Joel and The Bee Gees,
but my all-time favorite would be The Beach Boys. I've always
loved their harmonies. I can lay claim to the fact that I
saw the very last Beach Boys concert that included all three Wilson
brothers (Brian, Carl & Dennis)--July 4, 1983, on the Pier at
Atlantic City, New Jersey. |
|
 |
Q:
A: |
What
is
your all-time favorite song?
That's
a tough one! Since The Beach Boys are my all-time favorite
recording artists, it just makes sense that my all-time favorite song
would be one of theirs. I'd have to choose "Good
Vibrations" (although Carl Wilson's vocals on "God
Only Knows" still gives me chills!). It was a ground
breaking record for its time and still holds up as a great song and
great listen today! It was always one of the highlights of
their live shows. |
|
 |
Q:
A: |
What
was the first record
you ever purchased?
It
was a 45 RPM (remember those?) of "Do You Want To Know A
Secret?" by The Beatles in 1964. And yes, I still have it! |
|
 |
Q:
A: |
What
was the first concert you ever attended?
While
attending summer camp in the Berkshires in 1969, I saw Joan Baez at
the Lenox Performing Arts Center. |
|
 |
Q:
A: |
What
was the best
concert you ever saw?
That's
easy. Bruce Springsteen & The E Street Band, "The
River" tour, Nassau Colliseum, December 1980. The Boss did
one of his patented marathon shows (more than 3 1/2 hours!).
What I remember most about that concert was being both physically and
emotionally exhausted when it finally ended! BRUUUUUUUUUUCE! |
