Is that you?
...There has always been talk that Brian stopped SMiLE when he heard the Beatles "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band". However, it was another Beatles song that actually started to put doubt into Brian's head (note: Beatles historians will note that "Strawberry Fields" & "Penny Lane" were initially intended for Sgt. Pepper but released by Capitol when the album seemed to be taking too long). Michael Vosse describes being in a car with Brian when "Strawberry Fields Forever" came on the radio: "He just shook his head and he said, 'They did it already'. And I said, 'They did what?' And he said, 'What I wanted to do with Smile - maybe it's too late?'"

Yes that's him! The one and only.
i was doing my research "homework" that you gave me- and your name kept comming up. then, i googled you and voila. cool. my students will be impressed. we started today going over the technical stuff, but we talked a little about some of the artists- and they are stoked.
the more they study my role in all that and my pithy quotes
and soak up the videos of ME dueling with brocoli and leaping o'er the fauna they be more than impressed.
The powerhouse roundhouse kick is a whithering dismissal of the anti pot pooperdoomasses
