ROCKUMENTARY: THE TANDYN ALMER SONGBOOK

The Beach Boys: “Marcella”

It was time for Almer’s two swan songs in L.A.

In his years at A&M, Almer rubbed shoulders with a lot of musicians, but the one relationship that worked out was with Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys. It didn’t start well, though. The two got into an argument in the A&M parking lot which escalated into a fistfight; the police had to break it up. Despite that, Almer collaborated with Brian Wilson for his last two successes.

The song is about a hooker, but the band’s manager played with the lyrics to keep it open to potential release as a single.
