The noise of this place
Eamon and I watched Love and Mercy on Saturday night, because we know how to party.
This morning, I was driving to work, and Good Vibrations played on the RoadTrip channel on my radio.
And, there it was! All of the specification, the minutia that was detailed in the movie, the process of producing that song, I could hear it. That, was a stunning moment. It was I’m sure, an amalgamation of many of the studio sessions, to sort of exemplify much of what was probably considered Wilson’s madness.
Paul Dano, was fantastic as the younger Brian Wilson. He embodied his body. I did not however buy John Cusack, as him in the middle age. One thing I didn’t know before watching was that Wilson was deaf in one ear. Of course I have a theory, and see this as a window into what might have been why he heard voices, or the music was in his head at a sort of a distance as he was beginning the composition process. Regardless, it’s always staggering to take things that are known in a superficial way, and get introduced to the nether.
