Are there any pictures of Bruce Johnston with a moustache?

OK, these pics are a bit unclear, one can see it better on YT... but I didn't know Bruce had a bit of a rough look those days.

On this video, Carl's performance on "Oh, Darlin'" is just amazing...one of my favorite songs...would be great to hear that one again! 

Click the link then!

Sorry that I was not clear...I meant "live" in concert...

Carl did such a fabulous job with that (and every) song!

Good LORD! 

The number of truly terrible BB pics is staggering!

Wasn't Al the clean-living one? He looks as though he's halfway through a year of bong hits on this one!

This must have been part of a photo session circa 1971-perhaps Reprise-that was included in a set of large (27x22) b/w cardboard thick posters that included T-Rex, Jimi, Greatful Dead, Joni, Van Morrison, Zappa, Neil Young, Gordon Lightfood and James Taylor-all Warners artists at the time. The BB pic is alot better in the set than this one. I get alot of good comments about them.

Steve Desper took the above picture and another one on the back steps of Brian's Bellagio house during a recording session in 1971. The other picture, with Brian looking into the camera, was published and made into a Warner/Reprise promo poster (22" x 27" with a cardboard backing as Suferdude says). Before I framed mine and put it behind glass, I could faintly see "U.S. Army" on the front of Al's shirt - an attempt had been made to airbrush it out.

If anyone out there has this poster, Steve Desper would really love to have it. I told him I will leave mine to him in my will when I die.

How did you obtain that poster? Do you have the set? Just curious.

I got the black & white poster from a record store called "Record Factory" in the early 70's. They hadn't even put it up on the wall yet and I asked them for it. I got the same picture (8x10 glossy) in a press kit from the Beach Boys business office on N. Ivar in Hollywood in the early 70's. That's where I got my Surf's Up promo poster too. That one was a little harder to get! The Warner/Reprise press kit has 8x10 pictures of Brian, Mike, Al, Dennis, Carl, and Bruce, circa 1970. 

I hadn't seen the alternate picture before until this thread.

I've got the Surf's Up poster as well-signed by of all people ML.  Its gettin pretty raggity, though-almost 40 years ago.

Is there a photo of Brian with a moustache only? That would be fun (or not, depending on your taste...).

Another 'tache question: were there other rock stars apart from that guy in Sparks, who had the guts to sport a Hitler moustache?

Well..........I'm into women, myself.

Some guy in G.G Allen and The Murder Junkies had a Hitler mustache. Oh wait, you said star.....

[rogerlancelot]

Is there a picture of Marilyn with a mustache? Or is it something you can only see close-up with the sun hitting it a certain way?

Quelle question, cher monsieur! That would have been in such poor taste...(a Hitlerian stache - eeewww!)

But the "Dr. Zhivago" (my favorite movie!) Omar Sharif look mustache was pretty popular at that time! 

The photogs should have seen the Boys were well rested and not jet-lagged...IMHO

Damn, Surferdude!  You have a rare Surf's Up poster and you had Mike Love sign it? That sucker was worth some big bucks until you did that! Probably devalued it by about $100.....

That has to be his brother Merle. What a family...

I'm confused. You mean there was a time oldsurferdude, when you actually liked Mike Love?

It was taken backstage and came back with "to Sherry...Mike Love". We were hoping for Dennis or Carl or both to sign it-she was happy with Mike's scribble but Dennis had smiled at her a few times (she was beautiful) and she kind of hoped he'd be the one to sign it.

Didn't we all like Mike in the beginning? I did. He hadn't pulled any of his stunts and the band wasn't turned into an oldies jukebox. He just became more tacky and evil as the years went by. Genuine slime ball by all accounts.

[Mikie]

Oldsurferdude, I was joking about Mike's autograph on the Surf's Up poster. It wouldn't matter who's autograph is on that thing. Just having that poster is really something to have in the collection. I only know of three in existence - yours, mine, and a friend of mine. Maybe someone who posts here has one or has seen one, but over the years I haven't seen one offered for sale in Goldmine, Discoveries, Record Collector, or Ebay.

His name is Merle and is GG's brother. Show some respect.

[Mike's Beard]

I remember seeing that documentary on GG a few years back. All I'm gonna say is if my wedding tackle was that minuscule you wouldn't catch me performing butt nekidd on stage.

[summerinparadise.flac]

But man the music. The music was the greatest, rock hard, bulbous, 16 foot long schlong penetrating the minds of a generation. *genlty tugs ascot and moves towards a phonogram. Begins cranking as the sweet sounds of "Suck My Ass It Smells" permeate the room*

[Mike's Beard]

I bet Mike wishes he could write lyrics as deep and poetic as "Suck My Ass it Smells". 

[summerinparadise.flac]

Pray, Mike, have you ever written anything as beautiful as Expose Yourself to Kids?

...but couldn't that be exactly why he did what he did?
