I'd like to see a proposed tracklist of songs (left overs from the 60s not included on the first volume) and other 70s/80s gems that Brian is a part of.

I'd include more American Spring, most notably Sweet Mountain, Had to Phone Ya, and This Whole World.
Also, I'd throw Brian and Jan Berry's cut of Don't Ya Just Know it and California Music's Why Do Fools Fall in Love.

OH! and can't leave off that cover/version of Help me Rhonda that Brian's on by Johnny Rivers.
I'd also throw on Bob and Sheri's 45 of Surfermoon/Humpty Dumpty on there.
Story of My Life by Sharon Marie (is that on the original Pet Projects?)
We also need Bob and Bobby's cut of Twelve-O-Four.

What am I missing?

Might that include any of the stuff Brian did at "Junior's Motel" in Otho, IA? Has that stuff ever turned up anywhere? My understanding is that it was demo work for Spring or some variation of it. Don't know what the track titles were...

Baby what you want me to do   
Great production ! Would've loved if Brian and the boys would have cut such a blues album

a diseased bunch of mo'fos if there ever was one… their beauty is so awesome that listening to them at their best is like being in some vast dream cathedral decorated with a thousand gleaming American pop culture icons.

PRO SHOT BEACH BOYS CONCERTS - LIST


To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

I've never heard either, but would like to hear em.


I'd also like to add the Ron Wilson single that Brian produced...don't recall what the titles are (without a research book in hand)

There was mention of it in Brad Elliott's book, plus I went to the place and Kirk Kaufman (owner/producer/engineer there, plus former member of cool midwest band Westminist'r) told me a lot about it. This was during Brian's super-heavy period, and for a few days, Brian would not move from his bed at the Fort Dodge Holiday Inn a few miles away. Eventually he came in and did some stuff--I was not an uberfan yet, and so did not think to press him for titles, etc. But he did say it was work for some of his wife's material.

This was the recording studio built out of a chicken coop, and stocked with lots of high tech (for that time) gear. It was a cool little place!

Things are Changing wouldn't count, as although it's a Brian song, it's not a Brian production.

Well, I feel it has some involvement with Brian, why not...I don't think it's on any released albums
