7 months agoThe sound engineer for the Beach boys was one of the first to develop the plate reverb sound, where he used a metal plate on the opposite side of the microphone and the sound waves would hit the microphone twice, once on their way by and once after bouncing, or reverberating, off of the steel plate. This is why we associate reverberated guitar with beach music, because beach music started with that sound.
How funny would it have been if the next scene between Bob and the government agent took place graveside 😂
