Mike the dominant creative force when it came to conceptual content?

[Cam Mott]

Hey man, it's all in the thread, there is no point in repeating it. We disagree and you can save your personal jabs and innuendo.


In all the time you've wasted typing these lame non-answer replies, you could have easily just copy/pasted your presumably brilliant argument or restated and clarified it, since I in my stupidity missed it before. But no. You just go on and on beating around the bush and trying to end any kind of discussion. This is elementary school stuff, man. As guitarfool likes to say, either sh*t or get off the pot. How's that for innuendo?  

Typical?

How so? You're so mature and above me, show me the way elder! I want to better myself and be more like you, I can just tell by your posts that you're so full of wisdom and emotional depth.

Where is the contrary evidence?

Maybe Mike is exaggerating, misremembering, or outright lying, and it was Brian coming up with most of the concepts and lyrics in the Wilson/Love co-writes. Can someone point me to where someone, whether Brian himself or some one else in a position to know, says that Mike is not telling the truth?

But...his claim explicitly covers the entire span of the band's catalog. Like...with the very words he chose, there's no other way to interpret it except that he was claiming to be the driving force for everything--or very nearly everything--they ever recorded. So...? I mean, care to elaborate your position then? Because otherwise Im gonna have to accuse you of moving the goal posts, so to speak. 

Mike did not claim that at all. He said that when he and Brian wrote together he was the dominant force lyrically and conceptually.

My impression exactly until it hit the Smiley "spin zone."

It had a set end date apparently.
