Well, that's it! I'm off work and the countdown is officially on! I will be celebrating by sharing some of the Pet Sounds majesty that good ol' Logan J. Guidry and I will be seeing live tomorrow night from the maestro himself: the Mozart of the Modern Era, The Beach Boys' Brian Wilson.

No better place to start than the beginning, I should say. "Wouldn't It Be Nice" is easily one of the more recognizable tunes as it harkens back to the earier sounds of The Beach Boys as opposed to many of the more experimental and psychedelic sounds seen later on the record but it's executed with no less complexity or sheer musical bravado than the groundbreaking sounds that were yet to come. It rose to #8 in the U.S. and topping out at #2 in Australia it remains a staple of The Beach Boys catalogue to listeners around the world. It also rolled out the red carpet for the unmitigated genius that would pour off of the turntable over the next 30 minutes as the world got its first listen to Pet Sounds 50 years ago.

The only thing I hate about this record is that I waited a whole 36 years to ever know what it was really all about but for tomorrow at least.... we will stand amongst gods and for that I'm endlessly thankful.

Hey everybody. I'm asking for a BIG favor here. Please share this as much as possible. A close friend of my stepfather passed away and the family, that has suffered numerous losses this past year, is in no position to pay for another funeral. Anything you could be willing to give would mean endless amounts to this good, local family in an already difficult and painful situation. My heartfelt gratitude to each and every one of you for any help you can provide.

I am raising money for a very good family. Roy Milton, their husband, father, grandfather, son, a shoulder they all leaned on pasted away Monday night. The family don't have much. They don't have any money for a funeral. The Milton's are really good hard working people, that just need a little h...

A belated but very heartfelt congratulations to the one and only Jo-El Sonnier on his 4th Grammy nomination for the 57th Annual Grammy Awards coming up on February 8th. Never have I met a musician that is as passionate for his music and even more so for the heritage from whence it comes as this man right here. It's a true honor to call him friend. Best of luck to you, Sir! C'est votre année, moni Ami! C'est votre année!!
