This is fantastic, a dream come true. Darian is great on "I can hear music", really nails all those high notes!

Thanks a lot Rocker, that Ding Dang is fantastic! It's like a sacred ritual to honour a very benevolent Deity (think Amaterasu Omikami). And of course, Brian created that too...

It just dawned on me that the lo-fi way Al and his band do Good Vibrations would perfectly match Smiley Smile.

Do you have a video of them performing it?

Seems that in the following gig they did ELEVEN (*) songs from Love You!!! https://youtu.be/3_YFzXq06DIand https://youtu.be/cYbCnSoJAqAI think the "lo-fi slow rock" vibe is fantastic. "Love You" morphs into "Smiley Smile 2".  (*) One for each band member, I guess.

Confirmed: they did ALL of Love You except Mona, Lets Put Our Hearts Together and Love is a Woman.
I have no words... this is the greatest tribute to Brian imaginable.
Way to go Al Jardine Pet Sounds Band!

Man, do they sound great! And what about Matt?! Incredible
Can't wait to hear "Let us go on this way". One of my favorite Beavh Boys tracks of the 70s.
The new part of "Ding dang" fits very nicely.
Al probably will never become a Mick Jagger or Mike Love but I wish this band will get more attention. It certainly deserves playing to bigger crowds.
