Typically brief responses, but some mildly interesting ones.

What’s your favourite song on the Disney album?

Stay Awake (from Mary Poppins), it’s the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard in my life.

Hyperbole du jour from our beloved BW.


Quote
What will we be hearing In concert?

We’re going to play the whole of the Gershwin album and also Beach Boys songs and tunes from the Smile album.

Perhaps the idea is to promote the "Smile Sessions" release a bit.

I hear that the original Smile tapes are being released.

The outakes, not the original tapes. The Smile album was only a fraction of what we had on the tapes in the library.

Seems that Brian took the interviewer's comment very literally.  No surprise at all, of course, that we won't be getting the original tapes in toto.

I think maybe he just didn't understand the question about Smile

Looking forward to going to his concert for the third time I'll have seen him in Vancouver. Even though he is coming to Canada for the first time!

So that's two Disney songs from the upcoming album I've noticed referenced in interviews - "When You Wish Upon A Star" and "Stay Awake", any others?

He mentioned one from Toy Story as well in a recent interview.... I'd bet trillions of pounds it's You've Got A Friend In Me  Angry

All roads lead to Kokomo. Exhaustive research in time travel has conclusively proven that there is no alternate universe WITHOUT Kokomo. It would've happened regardless.

In this interview, he also mentions Baby Mine (from Dumbo) and A Dream Is A Wish Your Heart Makes (from Cinderella).

Haha - yeah, I just saw him for the fourth time in Ontario. At least, I thought that was him...

Nice!  Can't wait to hear his take on that    Cool

"Because of the attitude of a few mental dinosaurs intent on exploiting our initial success, Brian's huge talent has never been fully appreciated in America and the potential of the group has been stifled.... If the Beatles had suffered this kind of misrepresentation, they would have never got past singing 'Please Please Me' and 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand' and leaping around in Beatle suits."

And another one:


Does that signal that you may be doing something with the Beach Boys in the future?

- Maybe, yeah, the boys and I may be doing something together.

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.

- Lester Bangs on The Beach Boys


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.
