another #PeterGunn moment when I see #ninotempo as hep daddy leading a band in episode 14. #boystownwheremybrokenhearyedbuddiesgo is 1 of his best creations. #philspector meets #thebeachboys @ the #wallofsound & briefly encounters #thebeatles yet doesn’t come across as trite. #1967 #daddysamrecords

@thebanderson.bsky.social this just arrived! That’s the hidden benefit of preordering a book, you get a surprise on your doorstep! Can’t wait to dig in. Congrats on your first book!

P.S. I hope, for your sake, you got Wally’s authorization for this :) #TOTD

Pic of my hand holding a copy of Brian Anderson’s new book about the Grateful Dead’s Wall of Sound. The jacket is beautifully designed with a color pic of the band playing in front of the Wall with the text “The Grateful Dead’s Wall of Sound and the Quest for Audio Perfection…LOUD and CLEAR” with the author’s name at the bottom.
