Title: Beach Boys Survivor #28 Winner: Goin' On Post by: pixletwin on March 26, 2014, 12:57:04 PM Welcome back to a new round of BEACH BOYS SURVIVOR. Remember to be respectful of others opinions. Please don't spam the thread with too much opinionating (a little is ok :D ).... and without further ado...
Quote Keepin' the Summer Alive is the twenty-fourth studio album by American rock band The Beach Boys, released on March 24, 1980 on Brother, Caribou and CBS Records. Produced by band member Bruce Johnston, following aborted attempts to have Brian Wilson return to his former role, the album is the last to feature Dennis Wilson, who would subsequently drown in December 1983. As usual vote for your least favorite track. The track with the most votes gets voted off. Tally on March 28th Keepin' the Summer Alive Oh Darlin' Some of Your Love Livin' with a Heartache School Day (Ring! Ring! Goes the Bell) Goin' On Sunshine When Girls Get Together Santa Ana Winds Endless Harmony School Day (Ring! Ring! Goes the Bell) gets my vote for least favorite. Uninspired cover song.

Not only is it the worst thing here, it's my least favourite Beach Boys song in general. Bruce's section is god awful, Carl's vocal is way too over sung, and it has the lyrics"God Bless America" Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: Nicko1234 on March 26, 2014, 06:50:36 PM Plenty to choose from...

Bruce's section is god awful, Carl's vocal is way too over sung, and it has the lyrics"God Bless America" I don't mind that song. Other than the awful lyrics, I'd say it's one of the better songs here. The singing is actually the best part of it! Plus it's the last BB's song that features Dennis in any way.

Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: Disney Boy (1985) on March 26, 2014, 11:38:10 PM Oh Darlin
One of Brian's worst ever songs. At least the likes of Smart Girls has the comedy value - this is just terminally bland. Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: 2 and a half on March 27, 2014, 02:23:18 AM Endless Harmocheese

Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: Dudd on March 28, 2014, 12:53:51 PM I voted for Heartache last time, but now I'm not so sure.
Maybe... Oh Darlin'? It's nowhere near the worst-written song (the Brian-lead version is really quite good) but it sounds awful here. The opening chord sounds like a death toll.

Endless Harmony. Not only is it the worst thing here, it's my least favourite Beach Boys song in general. Bruce's section is god awful, Carl's vocal is way too over sung, and it has the lyrics "God Bless America" Yes, i am gonna repost this as it is.

Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: Disney Boy (1985) on March 28, 2014, 04:18:36 PM I voted Oh Darlin last time but having listened to the album afresh I vote WHEN GIRLS GET TOGETHER
It's dreadful. Oh, Sunshine - which looks like it's due for the chop next - is at least catchy, which is more than can be said for a lot of KTSA. Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: Eric Aniversario on March 28, 2014, 04:43:03 PM When girls get together

Agreed! Methinks next to a lot of the other tracks, Sunshine is a highlight.Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: smilethebeachboysloveyou on March 28, 2014, 04:58:35 PM Endless Harmony
Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: TimeToGetAlone on March 28, 2014, 05:05:25 PM This album is so hard to order. There's only one song I like with certainty, and everything else just falls in some pool of mediocrity. Most have their moments, or would be alright with a better production, but never really come together as a song I want to revisit.
I'll go with Some of Your Love next, because Mike's heavy nasal performance just grates. Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: Gabo on March 28, 2014, 05:28:22 PM btw does anyone know the video of the band performing Sunshine on TV (in 1980, I assume)?
Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: Nicko1234 on March 28, 2014, 05:31:53 PM I realized I should have picked Sunshine in the first round.

Catchy, indeed. And the vocal blend is pretty cool, actually. "Some of Your Love" is my vote--it's for squares. :3d Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: Marcella on March 28, 2014, 08:28:31 PM Endless Harmony….as Henry Potter says in "It's a Wonderful Life" Endless Harmony is SENTIMENTAL HOGWASH

Was quite hard to pick, as they're almost all bad. Took me a while to decide. I guess at the end, My vote goes to Sunshine.

Endless Harmony, for all it's Brucified sentimental slush, at least has a terrific wall of harmonies in the tag. Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: RiC on March 29, 2014, 01:51:59 AM Wtf? People voting Sunshine over Endless Harmony? Now I've seen everything.

I'm not voting it off because it's not of the era (not being of this particular era is generally a good thing. I'm voting it off because it's terminally mundane. Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: pixletwin on March 30, 2014, 11:23:46 PM WHEN GIRLS GET TOGETHER I'm not voting it off because it's not of the era (not being of this particular era is generally a good thing. I'm voting it off because it's terminally mundane. Really? I think it is kind of grandiose. The verse about the ladies listening to one of their friends speak about the heartache caused by the recent death of her husband followed by some little girls giggling about some boys they have a crush on and getting home before dark always feels me with a sense of wonder at the whole cradle-to-the-grave drama of being human. That it manages to do so without any hint at all of pretension really makes it beautiful to me.

Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: shelter on March 31, 2014, 06:42:02 AM Oh Darlin' and Sunshine are equally bad IMO, but since Sunshine seems to have a much better chance of being voted out now:

Quote Keepin' the Summer Alive is the twenty-fourth studio album by American rock band The Beach Boys, released on March 24, 1980 on Brother, Caribou and CBS Records. Produced by band member Bruce Johnston, following aborted attempts to have Brian Wilson return to his former role, the album is the last to feature Dennis Wilson, who would subsequently drown in December 1983. Are people voting for When Girls Get Together because it's a track which is not of the era? I love that song. Maybe even my favorite on this album. Sunshine... There is none. (17) (http://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/images/smilies/survivor.gif) As usual vote for your least favorite track. The track with the most votes gets voted off.

Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: Please delete my account on April 02, 2014, 03:35:17 AM The only song I'm really bothered about on this album is Oh Darlin' (purely for its classic tune- the words, singing and performance do it no favours).

Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: Quzi on April 03, 2014, 07:00:49 PM Some of Your Love is fun, especially when they used the synth instead of the horns - almost sounded like a Love You outtake.
Livin With a Heartache gets my vote. Way too plodding for my tastes. I understand a concise single version exists, which could potentially shift my feelings toward the song, unfortunately I've yet to come across it.

Like a few (but not all) other Carl songs of this era, no Bass vox in the stack gives it a different feel, although that could be a Bruce production decision.

I was familiar with the lovely bootleg version before I heard the KTSA version and I still remember being shocked by the huge drop in quality. The production? Those lyrics? That intro? All terrible.

Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: pixletwin on April 09, 2014, 11:50:31 AM Welcome back to the FINAL ROUND of BEACH BOYS SURVIVOR. Remember to be respectful of others opinions. Please don't spam the thread with too much opinionating (a little is ok :D ).... and without further ado...
Quote Keepin' the Summer Alive is the twenty-fourth studio album by American rock band The Beach Boys, released on March 24, 1980 on Brother, Caribou and CBS Records. Produced by band member Bruce Johnston, following aborted attempts to have Brian Wilson return to his former role, the album is the last to feature Dennis Wilson, who would subsequently drown in December 1983. 16 smilers agreed they were Livin' With A Heartburn after hearing this song. (16) (http://www.sideshowcollectors.com/forums/images/smilies/survivor.gif) As usual in the final round of Survivor, we VOTE FOR OUR FAVORITE TRACK!!!! Tally on April 11th Keepin' the Summer Alive Goin' On Santa Ana Winds Round#1 - School Day (Ring! Ring! Goes the Bell) March 28 Round#2 - Endless Harmony March 30 Round#3 - Sunshine April 1 Round#4 - When Girls Get Together April 3 Round#5 - Some of Your Love April 5 Round#6 - Oh Darlin' April 7 Round#7 - Livin' with a Heartache April 9 Keepin' the Summer Alive is a good song (in a way). But it fails to really get me going the way I think it was meant to. I love Santa Anna Winds. It sounds as if it belongs on Holland to my ears. But not the best. I believe this represented the final shard of SMiLE to be recycled on a Beach Boys album. It's the only song I feel where the song writing is solid. The production doesn't get in the way and the performances are nailed - emotionally and technically. A true BB classic. Goin' On.

Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28 Final Round: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: Les P on April 09, 2014, 03:19:19 PM Santa Ana Winds is a good tune, but the chorus vocals - way high in the mix - seem harshly shrill to me.
Keepin' the Summer Alive, as others have mentioned, is much better live, but the KTSA version lacks something. Which leaves my favorite tune on the album - despite Mike's annoying nasality (oh, if we only had a version with Carl doing the entire lead, then we'd have world peace)... Goin' On.

It's by far the best song remaining, poor production and all. Santa Ana Winds is a good song poorly realised - the bootleg version is vastly superior. I just don't get Goin' On. It's no classic to my ears.

But does not get my vote as Best.Uh huh! I know we'll KEEP THE SUMMER! Even though Carl did improve his soulful vocal live, the studio version is still the Best song on this album. Carl wanted The Beach Boys to be his Rock-n-Roll Band. This song works on so many levels. Rock On Carl!! My vote goes to: "Keepin' The Summer Alive" Yeah, Yeah! Uh Huh! I know we'll Keep The Summer... Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28 Final Round: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: Disney Boy (1985) on April 10, 2014, 10:21:08 AM KEEPIN' THE SUMMER ALIVE It's by far the best song remaining, poor production and all. Santa Ana Winds is a good song poorly realised - the bootleg version is vastly superior. I just don't get Goin' On. It's no classic to my ears. The lyrics on the bootleg version scream `placeholder` as another poster has said. At least they fit the melody, unlike the awkward overly-wordy lyrics on the album version. And at least the chorus on the bootleg version has a bit of life too it and hasn't been over-produced to the point of being utterly sterile. Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28 Final Round: Keepin' the Summer Alive Post by: Quzi on April 10, 2014, 12:17:49 PM I'd vote for Santa Ana Winds if it weren't for Mike's nasally vocal. A real shame, a great song. Would love to hear the chorus vocals from the earlier version in their full glory on the KTSA take.

It's just a little too artificially intense for me.Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28 Winner: Goin' On Post by: Moon Dawg on April 12, 2014, 02:24:37 PM "Goin' On" - Never great, usually acceptable to good depending on the mood. "Santa Ana Winds" is the album's best track but the production does suffer and the shrill backing vocals less than stellar. Come to think of it KTSA is full of shrill backgrounds.
The critical view of the time - for some - was that KTSA was a stronger effort than L.A. It was not. L.A. is soooo close to being a good album with some stellar stuff and a few less than great moments. KTSA will always be hopelessly mediocre. Title: Re: Beach Boys Survivor #28 Winner: Goin' On Post by: TimeToGetAlone on April 12, 2014, 02:36:42 PM My take is Goin' On is a fun song with a sub par production, which is good enough for a winner on this album. There are no slam dunk performances here, which is why I have it as the third worst album behind only Summer in Paradise and Stars and Stripes.
