   An album of reimagined standards in the style of "Student Demonstration Time".1  Lazy Surf2  For Me and My Chick3  It Had to Be Cars4  All Waves5  Makin' Whoopee [practically unchanged, although extra-creepy because of ML's vocal delivery]6  You Made Me Meditate You7  Lullabye in Drag Time8  I Wonder Who's Denny Kissing Now [probably his wife]9  What'll I Boo? [quasi-sequel to Mike's version of "Monster Mash"]10  Nevertheless (I'm in love with the formula)11  This Is All I Ask Is That12  As Time Goes By [lyrics include historic 1st appearance of the phrase "Looking Back With Love"] Very Good. I just picked up Harry's LP and enjoyed it very much - nice to listen to at dinner.  |

 Hey Little Tomboy is creepy. Banging women by the pool is fun and conjures up warm summer thoughts a Beach Boys song should.

 I recently picked up Dean Anthony's The Beach Boys and there is a treasure trove of weird Mike Love photos in it. I'll scan and post at some point, some of them are a riot and stuff I hadn't seen before. |

  "I finally started calling him... dog ears. Because he could hear - OBVIOUSLY - hear something that most human beings cannot." When Mike says it you can still hear and see in his face how pissed off he was to have to keep singing Brian's ego music over and over again. Makes you wonder if the dogs barking at the end of Pet Sounds was a joke on Mike. |

 But if you visualize him holding a mic while waving the fingers it all makes sense. He does it every show.   |

  "That oughta hold the little bastards..." All joking aside, that's actually a really cool photo.It's cool because he's sweating.  Because he was working his ass off to make that money.   |

 In earlier interviews on the subject, Beck was quoted as saying "He doesn’t speak. He’s clearly in need of attention. But that’s just my opinion.”
  A picture of Brian not speaking with Beck at a session.I'm not being an arse for the sake of it but seriously, have you ever seen a more staged 'candid' photo ? No movement whatsoever.I hadn't.....until now.    |

 The "Let's Talk From A Distance" Mike's always the whitest guy in the room anyway. Here he becomes almost diaphanous.  Uh, not when he's with Bruce... |

Actually, Bruce is in the picture. Like you said, he's even whiter than Mike. That's why he's not even visible anymore - which makes it appear as if Mike is the whitest guy in the room. I took it to Photoshop and after hours and hours of pro-tooling I managed to filter Bruce's image to the foreground:  |
