Did Brian ever comment or show awareness for the indie/ grunge groups that liked the BBs music?

And production aside, I’d so much rather hear a 14 year old David Marks shred some guitar on Chug-a-lug than hear a 51 year old Mike Love sing about bangin some chick in a swimming pool.-rab2591

Well, he was at least aware of the indy-type acts that played at his legendary 1994 tribute show where he first met the Wondermints.

With that said, Brian has never struck me as the sort who knew or particularly cared that, say, Sonic Youth did a dynamite cover of "I Know There's an Answer."

FWIW here's Brian's set from that night:

a diseased bunch of mo'fos if there ever was one… their beauty is so awesome that listening to them at their best is like being in some vast dream cathedral decorated with a thousand gleaming American pop culture icons.

PRO SHOT BEACH BOYS CONCERTS - LIST


To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.
