  1. The One and Only “Good Vibrations”
    Written by Brian WIlson & Mike Love
    Beach Boys
    Theremin would be the instrument.

    Did I ever share the story of when Brian came to our studio @ W/C?
    Very cool to spend the afternoon sitting on the piano bench with him (his request) and handing him a Pepsi when he asked.
    He was lovely, very polite and had incredible subtle energy. What a day!!!
