Documentary: Surfin Success (2013)

Hello everyone, I just wanted to share a documentary from 2013 by Richard Driscoll that I just discovered. This one lacks a narrator and mostly borrows from other sources, but there are a few pieces of footage in here I had never heard before.

The Explorers Club - Together [Review]

The Explorers Club will release their 3rd full length album, Together, June 24th, 2016 on Goldstar Recordings. You can pre-order the album here, http://www.pledgemusic.com/projects/explorersclub and listen to the new song, “Quietly”, here, https://soundcloud.com/expclub/quietly.

An incredible thing happens when you get some of the best musicians in the world together to record an album, and that’s exactly what the Explorers Club have done with their latest album, Together, set to release June 24th. The Explorers Club have recruited Wyatt Funderburk, the bassist and lead songwriter for the powerpop band Second Saturday and a fabulous solo artist in his own right (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAnJTzEVGqY) to join the band, alongside Jason Brewer, Kyle Polk, Michael Williamson, and Paul Runyon. The result has been one of the best albums I’ve ever heard in my life.

Every moment of Together feels as if you were listening to a long forgotten unreleased Beach Boys masterpiece, from the funky self-titled opener (which features a theremin!), right to the album’s closer, the lush and gorgeous Before I’m Gone, every moment of this album is perfection.

The songwriting on display here is clearly the product of a seasoned master. Jason Brewer, the chief songwriter and lyricist of the band is a student of all the great (and obscure) masters of the 60s and 70s pop scene, such as Brian Wilson, Paul McCartney, John Lennon, Burt Bacharach, Joe Raposo, Paul Williams, Rod Argent, Harry Nilsson, etc. However, after all this careful study he is too clever to merely copy, he is instead forging his own path using the tools given to him by those great legends. It is really a pleasure to hear the excellent vocal arrangements on every song of this record. In fact, I would support the release of a “Vocals Only” version of Together!

Jason is also at the top of his game vocally as he demonstrates on songs like California’s Callin’ Ya, My Friend, No Strings Attached, and Don’t Waste Her Time. However, the album is truly a team effort on the vocal front, as demonstrated on songs like Quietly, which features Wyatt singing lead on the verses, Mike singing the chorus with Paul, and Jason singing the bridge. The result is one of the strongest songs on the entire album.

Another great song on the album is the aforementioned Don’t Waste Her Time. It begins with jingle bells jingling over a “Wonderful Christmas Time”-esque synthesizer, showcasing some of the the variety of instruments the band has at their disposal. By the time the chorus comes the ears are treated to a symphony of sounds to hone in on and dissect. There really is a lot going on here with the vocal harmonies, guitars, piano, drums, etc. It reminds me of the Four Seasons in the way that their backing singers would be singing a line like “Walk, walk, walk, walk, run, run, run...”, while Frankie Valli would be belting out his lines at the upper ranges of his falsetto. Every ounce of the raw power that Frankie Valli, Ben E. King, and Percy Sledge mustered in their finest love ballads is also conjured in full here. It’s a moving piece of music that has been running through my head since I first heard it.

I would be remiss if I didn’t also discuss the brilliance of Be Around. The song begins with a mid tempo piano shuffle reminiscent of the Beach Boys album Friends, but gradually adds additional layers of complexity such as bells, vocal harmonies, counter vocal harmonies, bass harmonicas, organ, cellos, slide guitars and a steady marching drum beat that grows more intense. The lyrics are endlessly upbeat and tell of a successful romance and the wonderful feeling of being with the one you love. An incredible treat also lies after the second chorus in the form of a sensational string section featuring violins, cellos and violas! There is some use of strings and horns throughout Together, but the use is extremely tasteful and never detracts from the star of the show, which is always the vocals.

Every song on Together is worthy of it’s own in depth analysis, but I hope it suffices to say that this is a must buy for anyone who has ever enjoyed a song by The Beatles, The Beach Boys, The Zombies, The Carpenters, The Turtles, Bread, The Bee Gees, Chicago, Simon and Garfunkel or any of the other great pop masters.

Listening to such a solid record makes me wonder if, in a year when Chris Stapleton is exploding on the charts playing a brand of country pop that was last profitable in the 1970s, could The Explorers Club do the same?

What a year!

Hey guys and girls!

What a crazy year it's been. So much new stuff to talk about. But instead, let's watch Whoopi Goldberg inTerview Brian and Melinda Wilson.

Rocketship Interview

In the 1990's one of the biggest names in Indiepop music was Rocketship. Their chier songwriter, Dustin Reske, is a Beach Boys fan as well! I sat down with Dustin Reske over skype and interviewed him about his music and some of the influences that got him started. Check it out and then checkout their music at www.rocketshipmusic.com.

My Conversations With Denni Leann

Hello friends!

It's me Eric.

For the past few days the entire internet has been freaking out over Sherry Hutsell's scheme (read 3 entries below if you don't know what I'm talking about) and this has a lot of people asking me what I knew about her. My knee-jerk reaction has been to say "I never spoke to her at all!", or "I spoke to her once or twice, but she creeped me out!". Both of those are lies. I spoke to the character "Denni Leann" for 15 days.

I believed the lie for 15 days.

It happened between August 1st, 2011 and August 15, 2011. I had seen Sherry Hutsell on the Smiley Smile board since 2006 when I first joined, then the year after the character of Denni Leann began to gather believers on the forum. I never bothered to read any of her threads, so I had no idea that this was happening. I never spoke to her until she added me on facebook on August 1, 2011. In the conversations you are about to read (or not, its pretty long) I tried hard to be a friend to the perpetually sad pseduo lost Wilson. I attempted to raise her self esteem and show her that life wasn't so bad. I tried to get her to say ANYTHING at all related to me...but it never happened. She was only interested in herself and essentially used me to vent the frustrations she felt of managing such a complex digital life.

She was also determined to get me involved in her drama and when I chose to steer our conversations in a healthy direction, she would try a different piece of gossip to drag me in. She complained about the Wilson children not accepting her. She mentioned that someone arranged for the actual Wilson children to speak with her on the phone, and, according to her they kind of liked it. She mentioned a lot of wacky stuff. I believed her initially, but as time went on I tried to get more and more information out of her, which ultimately led to our parting of ways. World, please forgive me for being so gullible for 15 days. 

On the last day of our friendship, the last message she sent said that she had to go to work at 6:51pm (may have been 3:51pm her time, but still, who goes to work at that time?). About an hour later I asked her to post a time stamped photo on her Facebook wall and she blocked me immediately (from work?), followed by about 30 other friends who blocked and de-friended me, some of whom messaged me, outraged that I could doubt her story. It was wacky in retrospect that any of this ever happened.

So, without further introduction, here is the unedited, complete transcript of my conversations with Denni Leann, aka Sherry Hutsell.

they have offered my mom book deals

she will never

betray denny

8/15, 6:44pm

Eric Warncke

well thats not betrayal

at least the way i see it

unless she says something in the book that is a lie

or he promised her to never write a book about him

i would understand that

but other wise that doesn't make much sense

she writes a nice book about how great a guy he is and makes money

i don't see the immediate harm

Denni Leann

she knew him the last year the most horrible time, not much good there

he told her stories that would make your head spin

8/15, 6:46pm

Eric Warncke

yeah

1983 was no doubt a bad time for him

but i am surprised that you would need to be so guarded

i guess i am so unimportant that the ideas of obsession is a bit radical to me

ya know?

BBC Documentary 2004 "Wouldn't It Be Nice"

A few people have asked me to post the 2004 documentary Wouldn't It Be Nice. Here you go. It's been up on Myspace for a really long time. I guess everyone forgot it was there. Someone should snag this thing before it's gone.
