God Only Knows - by Brian Wilson and Tony Asher

Vibraphone - Tom Reilly Bass - August Bish From the Program Notes: "Brian Wilson and Tony Asher’s critically lauded baroque pop track, 'God Only Knows' has been extensively covered and critiqued. Rock music scholar Drew Nobile cites its status as the favorite song of Beatles bassist Paul McCartney to support the claim that it is one of the greatest songs ever written. In determining my repertoire for this recital, I concluded that I wanted to experiment with an opener which was not particularly fast or loud, but intense in other ways that capture the audience’s attention. Inspired by Brad Mehldau’s solo recordings of the piece, my good friend Tom Riley and I seek to explore the engrossing rich yet playful harmony of this piece while embodying the complex take on love expressed by the lyrics of this famous Beach Boys tune. While I can’t deny the 22-person ensemble in the original recording (consisting of two guitars, two basses, a string quartet, winds, brass, two accordions, many voices, harpsichord, piano, and plastic orange juice cups) is iconic, I hope you enjoy the intimate sound of this pared down duo instrumentation."
