The Lowdown

« on: September 15, 2011, 10:47:27 AM »

Hmm, this is new. Anyone know anything about it? I'm guessing its a hatchet job designed to cash in on the latest releases, but would love to be proved wrong:

Great shirt! They should produce an edition. If folded nicely it would probably fit in the box set! Grin

Decent pic of BW, anybody know roughly what year that was taken? I'll guess '68, 69? Bet I'm wrong lol.

Looks a bit like the Brian Wilson during the Hawaii 1967 gigs.

Rule of thumb, think BEFORE you post. And THINK how it may affect someone else's feelings.

Check out the Beach Boys Starline website, the place for pictures of many countries Beach Boys releases on 45.

Listening to you I get the music; Gazing at you I get the heat; Following you I climb the mountain; I get excitement at your feet
Right behind you I see the millions; On you I see the glory; From you I get opinions; From you I get the story

1967 hawaii the wondrous unique psychedelia of the beach boys, wherein brothers brian & dennis on lsd decide to forgo conventional playing of the instruments favoring an altered style some might call melting rhythms, entering the higher dimensions, can't hit snare on........time. ah.

cool intro, sounds demonic at first. the beach boys rock hard in this weird funky sparse way, it's refreshing actually compared to other bands. they really became an acid rock and roll band after the brothers Will all took it, probably together a bunch of times. someone called Smiley Smile 'zen rock' once, and i always thought that was cool.
