I feel like I've been checking that site daily for 6 months. I hate to sound impatient but what's going on?!

What a great song. Thanks for posting this.

Speaking of Al Jardine, does anyone have the picture of Al Jardine, wearing the "Keep it Clean with Al Jardine" shirt??

thanks in advance

OMG I've been looking for this too

There's always Full House reruns...

Any word on a launch date?

I've got some money burning a hole in me pocket!

I believe the Colby College show took place on May 13th, 1973.

Here is the tracklist I have for Live at Colby College (1973):

1. Introduction
2. Heroes And Villains
3. Funky Pretty
4. Darlin'
5. Do It Again
6. Leaving This Town
7. Help Me, Rhonda
8. Caroline, No
9. Don't Worry Baby
10. Surfin' USA
11. Marcella

13. Sail On Sailor
14. Sloop John B.
15. Wouldn't It Be Nice
16. Good Vibrations
17. I Get Around
18. Jumping Jack Flash

Only problem is, there are 18 tracks instead of 20 as you listed. Hopefully this is somewhat of a help anyway.

I really love "I Can Hear Music", and I think the reason a lot of people do is because it sounds like a Beach Boys original, despite being a cover. Let's face it, it's a song that was made for them to sing!!! "Kissed Her" sounds like a cover. Not that it's a bad thing, but it just doesn't sound like a "natural" BB song to me. Mind you, I heard the Beach Boys' versions of both these songs before I'd ever heard the original versions. Just my two cents.

Ridiculous. I'm sick of these lunatics that give Christians and Christianity a bad name.

I'd have to say "Wouldn't It Be Nice" since it's my all-time favorite song ever, by anyone. I know it wasn't Brian's biggest hit but I feel it's the perfect pop song. 2 and a half minutes of pure musical perfection.

Awesome news! Now you really gotta push for that Wild Honey remix!  

Excuse me if I'm being redundant, but does this mean there is absolutely no chance of ever getting an official stereo remix of the original 45 version?

Anybody who writes a song called "Crack At Your Love" is a champ in my book.  

But seriously, Al seems like the kind of guy that always just went with the flow. He had his share of brilliant moments. In addition to his songwriting which you have mentioned already, I feel the "In Concert" album is a prime example of his talent as a vocalist.  I was just listening to this album earlier today, and his strong leads on "You Still Believe in Me", "Wouldn't It Be Nice", "Don't Worry Baby" and "Heroes and Villains" easily stand alongside the original versions, which is really saying something.

On top of that he was always dependable as a performer, very professional, and he still seems to take a lot of pride in being a Beach Boy.  As aeijtzsche said, he easily could have been the odd man out due to not being in the "family," but he did a great job of fitting right in. He knew his role and he fulfilled it.

PS - I like the Darth Vader analogy.  

That "Mess of Help" video is great! Are there any other videos from the Chaplin/Fataar era?

Breathtaking!

I was just asking a simple question. The topic fell off the front page so I wanted to see if one of the many helpful and knowledgable people here had an answer to my question.

Ditto.

If Uncle Jesse was there, it must have been pure magic. 

Wow, that was depressing.

Once is enough. No need to constantly repeat yourself just because nobody responded at first.

Does anyone know where I can find some nice high-quality scans of Beach Boy album covers?

Sweet pic, never seen it before. Thanks.
