"To Know Him Is To Love Him" (1958) → "He's a Rebel" (1962) → "Then He Kissed Me" → "Be My Baby" (1963) →"Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) (1963) ) → "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling" (1965) → River Deep, Mountain High" (1966). How is that NOT A PROGRESS? In addition, he also produced some remarkable records by John Lennon, George Harrison, Cher (" A Woman's Story", find it, it's here on tube, beautiful), Ramones, Leonard Cohen (underrated), Dion (beautiful work).

Phil... You never could and never will write anything as good as Good Vibrations. He has some great production techniques but wow, he's got a big head that man!

Really? The way Phil looks in this interview and still he talks about Brian Wilson that way? Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black? 05:48
