In this special snackable episode, Mark compares The Beach Boys' 1967 SMiLE album with The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. A year earlier the bands came out, respectively, with the classic Pet Sounds and Revolver LPs, and it was The Beach Boys who were favored in NME's year-end poll. If SMiLE had come out during the Summer of Love, how would it have fared? Mark weighs the two albums track by track, and in terms of cultural impact and overall artistic impression. These records are considered by many to be both bands' ultimate production statements - which one will come out on top? (This mini-episode is a longer version of a clip Mark recorded for the Apples & Oranges Podcast.)

Carli Muñoz on touring with The Beach Boys and recording with Dennis
The Beach Boys' touring band was hot throughout the 70s, in part thanks to Carli Muñoz's powerhouse contribution on organ and piano. He was also a skilled composer, and Dennis Wilson looked to use Carli's songs and have him co-produce his projected second solo album Bambu. Here Carli reveals the inspiration behind those songs, recalls his friend and group manager Jack Rieley, and recounts why he and Rags Baker deliberately got arrested after recording a demo of "Constant Companion"!
