 This is incredible news!  Any chance any of the 71-72 solo sessions could be added as bonus tracks?  (Wouldn't It Be Nice to Live Again?) |

 A minor point, I know, but is the official title of the unreleased album "Bambu" and not "Bamboo"? Thwarting the bootleggers perhaps or was that Dennis' originally-intended spelling?
 Great, great news nonetheless. Thank you Jon!

 To view my video documentation of my Beach Boys collection go to www.youtube.com/justinplank "Someone needs to tell Adrian Baker that imitation isn't innovation." -The Real Beach Boy ~post of the century~ "Well, you reached out to me too, David, and I'd be more than happy to fill Bgas's shoes. You don't need him anyway - some of us have the same items in our collections as he does and we're also much better writers. Spoiled brat....." -Mikie  "in this online beach boy community, I've found that you're either correct or corrected.

 Thanks Jon, this is the kind of news that makes one's day! (EDIT: Make that 'year', haha). So, a day in March can soon be marked as 'D-Day' ('Dennis Day')! Cool.    |

 I wouldn't mark the calender until Sony puts out some kind of announcement. There is still work ongoing as far as putting the package together, and I don't think a release date is set yet. In fact March would surprise the hell out of me, that's really close man. But as you can see from the DWMG press release there is an expectation of product in the near future. |

 But as you can see from the DWMG press release there is an expectation of product in the near future.
 And that's the main thing! Sorry, got a little carried away there.    |

 Rule of thumb, think BEFORE you post. And THINK how it may affect someone else's feelings. Check out the Beach Boys Starline  website, the place for pictures of many countries Beach Boys releases on 45. Listening to you I get the music; Gazing at you I get the heat; Following you I climb the mountain; I get excitement at your feet Right behind you I see the millions; On you I see the glory; From you I get opinions; From you I get the story |  |  |

 Greta news - thanks Jon for making it (unofficially) official - any word on the (Bambu) track list?
 ... I don't want to be a downer on this good news about a March release but why do I have this haunting sentence rolling arund in my head: "we're sure to sell a million units - in January"...

 This is incredible news!  Any chance any of the 71-72 solo sessions could be added as bonus tracks?  (Wouldn't It Be Nice to Live Again?)
 I know we keep asking for more and more (are fans ever satisfied?) but this would be excellent! |

 Note to the producers in charge: It's BAMBÚ in Spanish and BAMBU in Portuguese. |

 BOOO!! Dennis' music stinks. Why can't we get a 2008  digitally remastered Looking Back With Love??? Instead we get  Pacific Ocean Poo and Bamboozled. This is a horrible day in the world of music. I think I'm gonna stay in my room the day this is released.   I'm allowed to enjoy myself.........can't wait. "Been Way Too Long" |

 McCartney's induction as a solo artist into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1999. It only took 29 years, of course, which is why Stella wore that T-Shirt.  |

 Such great news, but i won't hold my breath.  Maybe 'looking back with love' next   Reminds me of a statement I read somewhere:   "Even dead, Dennis remains cooler than Mike."  |

 Death has always been a great career move in so many cases! Dean, Morrison, Munroe, Cobain to name a few.
 Just watch the new interest in Heath Ledgers work now.

 This is really really  great news! I hope it generates enough interest in Dennis' work that they start releasing more stuff.   |
