I always get really inspired when I listen to Beach Boys. Much love.
I think I've worn out my CD copy of Sunflower/Surf's Up.
"God Only Knows" is simply perfect.
I saw Brian Wilson in Feb. It was amazing.

Damn straight--I saw him 8/15 and I swear you could close you eyes and you were at an original Beach Boys concert. I wonder what keeps the guys apart now.
psychosis mainly.

HA HA HA!! Did you notice at 1:23, dude looks just like JJ peering out of the cop car!! :-?
Also, I didn't remember Mike Love being so, uh, flamboyant!! :o :o

I grew up listening to them, my dad's a HUGE fan. The late 60's early 70's stuff is the best, I play Surf's Up, Friends, Wild Honey, Sunflower, Holland, Carl & The Passions, 20/20 for peolpe all the time and they are shocked how great they are. No one I know realized that "Sail On Sailor" was a BB song when they hear it in The Departed.
The Beach Boys In Concert live cd is really great, from the 72/73 tour before Mike Love took total control and they went into the "greatest hits tours" mode.
I just bought Dennis Wilson-Pacific Ocean Blue. I haven't listened to it yet but, boy am I looking forward to it!!! :D

It's great........at least the first disc is anyway! The 2nd's a bit spotty. Bought the deluxe packaging version a couple months ago. Very cool......especially the drop-down album cover extension.

...I listened to it too, it almost seems like the "unreleased" album on the second disc was left unreleased for a reason...

I originally bought it because of the Holy Man-Taylor Hawkins version, but I'm really liking what I hear.

Glad somebody said it. I don't remember ALL that either.

He does a great job on that vocal......sounds a lot like Dennis.
