Jeff covers of BB songs

I saw a Youtube video of Jeff doing a beautiful version of She Knows Me Too Well a few years ago. I was wondering how many such recordings Jeff has done. Can anyone assist?

He did all the parts to 'Warmth Of The Sun' a few years back on a BBC program but it seems to have been lost.

He also did a nice version of Surfer Girl, titles Surfer Girl Lullabye. Very nice.

I'm sorry, but in my opinion, Jeff can not come anywhere close to what vintage Brian Wilson sounds like. I truly don't know why he is always put up on a pedestal? Jeff is a decent cover at best.

He's sometimes on, sometimes off. Oddly, he sounds the most Brian-esque on his solo and non-Beach Boys material. He sounds the least Brian-esque on TWGMTR, unfortunately. But check out his "Through My Window." To me he sounds very Brian-esque in that track.

Listen to his
Thru My Window
album if you want more Jeff doing Beach Boys. Almost every single song on there is a Beach Boys song that's just altered ever so slightly and with new lyrics.

I like Thru My Window a lot...some great Beach Boy type songs there. In fact I like all of Jeff's solo material, including the rarities and Xmas CD. Baseball Card Fever is a great fun tune!

I assume you are all talking about The Fosk-meister.
And I agree. His vocals never came close to approximating vintage Brian.

His vocals are much closer to those of Carl, IMHO...which, given the dedication in the
Thru My Window
album, is no shock.
