McCartney was highly impressed with the \"harmonic structures\" and choice of instruments used on Pet Sounds, and said that these elements encouraged him to think the Beatles could \"get further out\" than the Beach Boys had, adding that \"[we] nicked a few ideas\", although he felt it lacked the avant-garde quality he was seeking.\n\nThis brief video shares the connection between Pet Sounds and Sgt. Pepper, including an interview with Brian Wilson. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cz4rHCRNy_U&t=147s", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" }
