I checked out your link and didn't seem that interested until I read further
and saw that the main character helps Brian Wilson finish "Smile".That kind
of blew my mind.I am a huge Beach Boys fan,and used to fantasize doing just
that.I think I was so bummed about the apparent destruction of the actual
tapes that I wished someone could have been there to save that project.
There is an amazing book on music ,"Outlaw Blues" ,by Paul Williams,who was
the editor of Crawdaddy,a fantastic magazine that worshiped pop like no
other.The outstanding piece in the book was a beautiful and sad saga of
"Smile".I was so affected by this piece ,and so sure I would never really
hear "Smile".
I may have to check out this book.Unfortunately,I have about 5 books before
a new one is possible[damn internet!]
