The Whole Shebang Minute 80: You’re Just This Weird Nerd

In Minute 80 of The Whole Shebang, we continue the uncomfortable time looking at Curt, Brian, and Jerry’s conflict in the recording studio, the idea of studio polish vs. raw energy, where Brian’s energies are best directed and how Bowie used his time in inadvisable ways early in his career, Curt’s insults cutting to the core of Brian’s puffed-up space-age persona and coterie of yes-men, and then we look at this behavior through the lens of the fact that these rock stars (and actors) are really young when they’re behaving badly, Brian’s milquetoast suggestion of having a bit of a break, and the whys and wherefores of an artist’s vitality fading.
