Title: Beach Boys Survivor #34 Winner: Soul Searchin'
Post by: pixletwin on May 12, 2014, 07:36:28 AM
Welcome Smilers to the fifth and final Odds 'N' Ends Beach Boys survivor!

Before we begin I need to get a feel for what songs to include. As last time we are only including songs that were either:

a) previously unreleased OFFICIAL tracks
b) tracks not included on an album (ie Crocodile Rock)

Live recordings or booted material not yet officially released (ie Life is For the Living) are not included.

1980 - present

Soul Searchin’
You’re Still a Mystery
California Dreamin’
R’n’R to the Rescue
Crocodile Rock
Problem Child
Chasin’ the Sky
East Meets West
Happy Endings
Goin’ to the Beach
Da Doo Run Run
Why Don’t They Let Us Fall In Love
Living Doll  :lol
Lady Liberty


I'll let this cook for 24 hours. If you feel a track is missing, let me know. But don't forget to state your case as to why your track should be included.

You've listed happy endings and east meets west twice.

Is this for only released tracks or can one put River Deep Mountain High and Stevie on the list?

Vote goes to 'East Meets West'

Gorgeous opening harmonies give way to a truly sh*t song.

Would the Beach Boys Medley and Living Doll technically qualify?  Also, wasn't Why already done for the 70's one?

Thanks for pointing out Why.

Medley and Living Doll? I never heard of them. When were they released?

The Beach Boys Medley was a #12 hit in 1981, essentially a mishmash of early hits.

If I'm not mistaken, Living Doll was a limited single release in 1987 with a Barbie promotion.  I believe it has just Brian on it but it is labelled Beach Boys.

I guess since it has the "Beach Boys" label, it qualifies.

Agreed. That plus Fun, Fun, Fun with Status Quo.

I am also in favour of adding Lady Liberty. Not only does it have different lyrics, it also has Al talking on the intro, and typical 80's drums!  :rock

Living Doll is beautiful in being a harmless novelty.

Listening to Lady Liberty is like having the erected c*ck of Uncle Sam shoved deep in your mouth. Too much liberte pour moi!

Songs From Here And Back, in 2006. It's mainly a live album, with an added 3 studio solo tracks (which are all missing on this. The other two are Mike's Cool Head, Warm Heart and Al's PT Cruiser.

I like my covers to offer something different or, if it's not going to do that, at least approximate the quality of the original.  I don't believe this version accomplishes either of those things, being pretty much a lackluster early 90's incarnation of the Elton John song.  And yes, it's merely a contribution to a tribute album, but if it's just going to be a subpar cover, does anyone really need to hear it?

Granted, the other covers remaining weren't particularly necessary either, but they stand as better recordings to my ears and, at least with Why Don't Let Us..., I like the different production.

Out of all of the oldies they did after Endless Summer, Da Doo Ron Ron is a strong contender for being the weakest. I have no idea why the thundering drum fill in the chorus aren't present, it's easily the best part of the original's arrangement and the chorus here sounds naked without it. Probably the most listless Brian Wilson production up to that point.

I at least like everything that's left, including those.  This is a great odds'n'ends set.  Can't believe "Why Don't They Let Us Fall in Love" is getting so many votes.  Doo Wop on a street corner under the light in New York City.  I love it!  Get your New York Soul out friends.

Da Do Ron Ron is voted off but we have a tie between Why Don't They Let Us and Chasin' The Sky.

Next new vote (or changed vote) for either of those gets the boot.

Rock-n-Roll to the Rescue" and
"Goin' to the Beach" - Great Mike song.  Then he had so much doubt it didn't even make the cut on Looking Back With Love.  Would have made KTSA a better album.  I think...But I've never heard the track as it existed in 1980, and the youtube clip doesn't show very much.  I am glad they put it on MIC.
If we can get these two out, the finish will be very hard to decide.

Agreed. Bar the original (which can't be topped), I think the Beach Boys version is the best version of the song.

And Rock And Roll To The Rescue is a criminally underrated single, always enjoy listening to it.

Round#6 - R’n’R to the Rescue May 24
Round#6 - Goin’ to the Beach May 24

You're Still A Mystery could have been great, but it feels unfinished.
California Dreamin' is ok. Seemed like a 60's nostalgia moment that seemed to be everywhere in the late 80's. No thanks.

My vote for favorite is easy...

Carl may not have been satisfied with this one, but I find it immensely satisfying.

Quote
Why oh why did I ever say goodbye. I must be out of my mind.
I'm watching and I'm wondering and I'm looking for a SIIIIIIIIGN!

A great moment in BB history.

SOUL SEARCHING.

My favourite was Rock And Roll To The Rescue, and while I am disappointed it didn't make it, I'm just surprised it lasted this long.

California Dreamin', and I'm voting this even with the realisation that it'll likely lose.

Without a doubt, YSAM is the best remaining track. It's a real return to form. The melody and the harmonies on the chorus are stunning. Soul Searchin' is fluff in comparison...

This is the first time that the top 3 tracks were so close for me that I had to go back and listen to all of them before voting.

There was a big element of excitement when the booted versions of soul searchin and you're still a mystery came out. I listened to those songs over and over, and I remember thinking what a big loss it was that they were never released. Now they have been released years later, sounding noticeably different. Now the element of excitement is not quite there anymore, and I kind of wish that i could listen to these official versions with fresh ears. But I can't do that. Now I find myself listening for differences, and understanding why they weren't released. Granted, they are far better than stars and stripes, but neither one really feels complete as released. Mystery sounds way too slow, and Soul Searchin just doesn't sound very convincing.

California Dreamin, however, is not only complete, but also features some of the best vocals we've heard from Al and Carl. My vote goes to California Dreamin.

You're Still A Mystery

very good song, I think it's more creative than Soul Searchin (itself a great track) because in SS Brian hammers the piano chords which was typical him in the 70-90's but I got a bit tired of it. If we compare the released version of SS to the booted one, I think the booted one comes on top because there is less dramatic backing vocals which are at times a  little over-the-top.

I find "California Dreamin'" to be terrible.

"Soul Searchin'" and "You're Still a Mystery" are both great songs. Really wish that could have resulted in something.
It's difficult to choose, but I think "Soul Searchin'" is my favorite of the two.

Soul Searchin' is a better song overall, so I'll vote that. Mystery has some truly great moments but doesn't feel as cohesive,and the chorus is a bit of clusterfuck.

I've already voted for Soul Searchin', and am not changing my vote, but I feel compelled to say that I totally agree with Eric's comments and understand why he voted for California Dreamin', which although a cover version, fits into the category of many BB cover versions, such as I'm So Young, and I Can Hear Music, and Rock n Roll Music, where the original was great, but the BB cover was even better.  Although a "latter day" BB cover, it easily surpasses the Mamas and Papas original, IMO, but I had to go with Soul Searchin' as one of the last great BB originals with incredibly great vocals featuring Carl Wilson.

Love Love Love all three of these final tracks, but wish "Why Don't They Let Us Fall In Love" would have made the cut instead of "California Dreamin'"
Which was such a breath of fresh air in 1986.  The video was very welcome amongst most of the crap MTV was putting up.  Patricia, doing all her videos on the Ultimate BB Channel on youtube, has the very day that it world premiered.  I have that too, somewhere in the storage room with the hundreds of vhs tapes that share the same fate.  At the end Martha Quinn says that Brian won't be making the 1986 tour, as he is working on a solo album.  Really?  Well that only took two more years.  That passed for cutting edge news back then.  What's youtube but the current MTV - but now You get to decide what's next.  I saw some photos of those old VJs the other day, think it said Howard Stern's Show...Martha still looks very nice!
I'm going to pick between the other two though.  As impossible as it is.  I remember John Manning once described it as, "Couldn't put a credit card between 'em" - Let's give another one to Brian.
"You're Still a Mystery"

Don't really 'get' Soul Searchin'. To me, it sounds like a Brian solo record trying (and failing) to sound like the Beach Boys. Yeah, I know this version actually was the Beach Boys, but that's still how it sounds to me...

YSAM is a vastly superior song.

I agree, the bgv in this version are over the top, they distract you from the 'oooh oooh ooooooooh' Carl has in the second verse.
Sometimes less is more, but by 1996(?) the group had come full circle to parodying itself and so harmonies and other 'beach boys typicals' had to be spread far and wide.

Of coursen't. I'm the same, also I prefer Brian on middle 8 than Carl, by a wide margin.

I'm quite the opposite -- I very much favor the way Carl sings the middle 8.

I am fine with this going to "Soul Searching" by just one vote.  Sounds about right.  Another win for Carl.  And a well deserved win for Andy.  More of his work with Brian should be released officially.  Now, for all of us who could not afford all the boots.  We have youtube, but I don't want to get them that way.  Clean 'em up best you can and give us what we want.  Alan, Mark, powers that be...make it happen soon.
I couldn't figure out which one to vote best.  I played GIOMH on Saturday night, working on a review - which will be very positive.  I like the MIC version better.  Brian's version is good too, but MIC's sounds more like The Beach Boys, though it's basically the same.  Brian didn't need to add anything to it.  Man, I'm getting my money's worth with that box set.  I play something from it nearly every day.

This was a great round.  Thanks as always to pixletwin's time and work.

I just finished writing the tracklist and post disclaimer for the SUPER Survivor rounds.  I decided (just in the interest of symmetry) to add Morning Christmas to the line up (since it technically did survive the 70's Christmas titles) and got each era squared away with 9 tracks each.

There are quite a few people around here who don't want the Survivor rounds to end after Super and Ultimate Surivior, I think this is the perfect solution. I'm also pretty sure a lot of people would want to vote on that, certainly more than on the Party! and Stars And Stripes rounds.

Great! Better go listen to Surfer's Pajama Party to become familiar with that one, I guess ...

Ok. It's resolved then. I will include GV with the 9 other tracks for the 1965-1969 thread.

Pix,

So the Super S rounds will be 5 year time spans? And the winners of those groups will go to Ultimate, right?

...I'd really like to know, is there going to be a losers round where you take all the songs that was voted off first, and vote for your favourite remaining track until there's 3 remaining and you choose the worst song!

I going to call The Beach Boys First Victims thread. Do you think enough people would be interested enough to vote over 35 rounds?  :lol

There are quite a few people around here who don't want the Survivor rounds to end after Super and Ultimate Surivior, I think this is the perfect solution. I'm also pretty sure a lot of people would want to vote on that, certainly more than on the Party! and Stars And Stripes rounds.

Or we could do some other bands, like Monkees survivor. .. or is that cheating on the BB?

The years will be:

1962-1965, 1965-1969, 1969-1978, 1978-2012.

Basically we will take the top 3 tracks from each era (plus GV as a wild card) in Super S and then they will battle it out for Ultimate.

It would be fun to do other bands like Monkees/Pink Floyd/Beatles someday.

I'd rather have BB's Solo Survivors from 1962's Surfer's Pyjama Party to 2011's In The Key Of Disney. And this includes all non-live studio albums from the classic line-up, David and Blondie.

This song shouldn't win. Big mistake. Bored everytime without fail when I hear it.
