The Tack Tack Bass - The Sound of the Beach Boys

Lee hazelwood was one of the first producers to pick up on this sound. Dwain eddie has said several times that hazelwood invented the sound before owen bradley did, though i think bradleydid it first. It's all over the beach boys best records and many of jack nitch's arrangements. And it's on most of the stuff the nashville ateam played on from the late fifties through mid sixties. This sound known as tick tack bass was soon picked up by a lot of producers, and it became the stand way of getting a bass sound in both Nashville and l a.
