Would Carl and the passions-So tough be considered an alias/pseudonym or side project album ? Esp since it sounds nothing like the BBs and no album before or after.. the double LP with Pet Sounds doesn't even say beach boys on it..

As far as I ever seen it was always a Beach Boys product. On the first day of release, it was in the bin under The Beach Boys. So record stores knew it was a Beach Boys album.

Carl and the Passions was either a group Carl dabbled with prior to the Beach Boys OR a name the Beach Boys considered before someone else named them instead. Beach Boys somehow worked better. Kept these guys young up until oh...say...NOW. Either way...It is the Beach Boys. Same lineup as is the case with Holland and with that fantastic 1973 live 2 record set. It ain't no 'side' project. Never was.
Too bad that lineup didn't last a whole lot longer. [not to mention the forward thinking.]

I was just thinking about this the other day - it actually was a pretty audacious move - subtitling the album as a fictitious band name ("So Tough" is the name of the album per se) a la Sgt. Pepper's, that no one has EVER talked about or questioned the reasoning of. Someone somewhere must have come up with the idea (Jack Reiley?). Carl certainly was trying to reinvent the band at that point with the new members. It certainly had to have been a factor.

Even though most fans would be in the know, others might not have been. I imagine that they lost a few sales just by the Beach Boys name not spreading on the anywhere.

But Eric...Didn't all of the copies originally released come with the added bonus of the second album [Pet Sounds] and wasn't it HIGHLY promoted in the trades that THIS was, in fact, the NEW Beach Boys album with the bonus 12 incher? It also happened that 'You Need a Mess Of Help to Stand Alone' and 'Cuddle Up' were released at the same time as the new Beach Boys single...A side/B side.
I was living up in Northern Ontario that summer working for Allied Van Lines as a summer job while taking the break from college. Even up there in North Bay I knew what was going on.

C&TP
reminds me of the Mothers of Invention album
Cruising with Ruben & the Jets
, which actually spawned a band of that name, led by one Ruben Guevara...

Anyone know how the title "So Tough" came about. Sounds like a Sha-Na-Na type of thing.

I think Lee is right that Carl and the Passions was one of the original possible ideas for the name of the group before they decided on The Pendletones.
I do agree that, at least for the first two or three songs, the album doesn't really sound like The Beach Boys. I think Marcella is the first BB sounding track on that album.
I think Blondie and Ricky blended more with the group on Holland.

Really only three songs that have the trademark harmonies; Marcella, All This Is That and Cuddle Up. I guess you could add He Come Down too. Personally, I liked that it was different. I liked that all four early 70's albums sounded different from each other. That they pushed themselves and tried new things to move themselves forward. It was great time to be a fan and see them progress as a band.

Since we're talking So Tough, why did the record company think bundling the new album with a six-year-old album was a good idea? That's a head-scratcher to me. Didn't the likely audience for a new album have all the old ones already?

No doubt. I agree 100%. I don't think it's a bad album at all. It's probably my least favorite of the four from the early 70s. But still better than each album they released in the late 70s.
And I should note one of my favorite tracks from this era is Leaving This Town, which sounds nothing like The Beach Boys.

My biggest complaint with it is that all of the faster numbers like ...Stand ALone, Marcella and even ...Dear Brother could of used a little faster tempo. All good songs, but they kind of feel constipated, if you know what I mean.

I know what you mean. The live version of Marcella is much better.
And I like the Brian Wilson and Friends version of Hold On Dear Brother a lot. Nate Ruess's voice really works well on that one.

Absolutely, it was a delight and highlight of the show, for me. It was one of the most energetic songs of the evening.

It makes you wonder if the addition of Blondie and Rikki led to a discussion along those lines... Is this the same group? Maybe they considered the name change ala "Beach", scrapped the idea but kept the title anyway because they liked it.

Mr. Kook, sometimes I think you're putting us all on.
I thought you said that all BB albums from Holland and prior were great, and every album after Holland is crap.

That's not a tough question at all.
It is not even in the slightest a side project. And btw it sounds very similar to Holland and somewhat similar to LA.

That is a stumper, for sure. In hindsight though, it was a blessing. As it turned out, it has been the best mono pressing by either Capitol or Reprise to this day. Some argue that Hoffman's DCC release is best, but I'd beg to differ on that.

Maybe the slower tempos were due to the band smoking a bunch of weed, which can lend itself to stony, slower BPMs...

There's the rub. He's realised
CATP_ST
doesn't fit his statement, so he's seeking a way he can explain it away as not a proper Beach Boys album.

It's also worth pointing out that the respect for CATP is pretty recent. If you read books and articles about the BBs from the time of its release up into the '80s, it was mostly talked about in critical terms comparable to SUMMER IN PARADISE. People at the time really reacted badly to the album's shift in sound direction.
