RIP to Brian Wilson, who gave us many perfect albums but also the perfect interview

Brian Wilson was my friend and my brother in songwriting. We shared a similar sensibility, as evidenced by his 4 over 5 chord under “Aaaah!” in "Good Vibrations” and mine under "I’m into something good.” We once discussed who used it first, and in the end we decided it didn’t matter. (Continued)

In Abbott's new thriller, three sisters in Grosse Pointe get drawn into an 'investment club.' crimereads.com/megan-abbott...
