You don't have Al on your album for his great guitar playing or songwriting skills, given that he has neither.
You have him on there for his voice. Leads and backgrounds on a few songs, given that it's a BW solo album, is precisely what one would expect from Al's involvement.

I have no idea what may come of these album sessions. But Al’s level of involvement (and non-involvement) isn’t surprising at all. This was never a “Wilson & Jardine” album. It’s a Brian album with other guests.
Actually, to read some posts here from several months back, you'd think it was a Beach Boys album without Mike & Bruce, and some folk seemed pretty happy about that.
Originally, the strong impression given was that it was a joint Wilson/Beck album, but to judge from Jeff's comments earlier this year, that's dead in the water, so we've got a BW + friends album, with Joe Thomas at the helm.

Yeah, Al is a total piece of sh*t with a guitar. I just wish all these incompetents like Al, Brian, David etc. would be replaced by professionals because professionals are the best.

I just listen to Imagination produced by Joe "Professional" Thomas and spend 200$ on a meal while others starve and then I never take showerz. I'm just sitting here being a professional while reversing the aging process. I hope they write that I was a professional on my tombstone.

Bad photos can happen to any of us - as others have said it just depends on the lighting, angle, etc.
Be thankful that man is in a recording studio with a smile on his face!

that
's an honest smile of his. Always great to see.

I can`t comment on what`s an honest smile or not but, without wishing to sound depressing, some of the photos of the band members recently have struck me as indicators of their mortality (for want of a better expression). Now obviously that`s only natural but it`s still not a pleasant thing to be confronted by.

I don't know.. I don't feel that way about seeing current photographs of them. But I guess I can imagine what you mean..

I understand...the music is so deep and powerful that it's hard to accept the fact the creator of things like Pet Sounds or Til I Die has to die. What he created will last forever but Brian won't - and we're here to witness that end
I don't think the photos of Brian have been so bad, but the aging is clear, even since C50.

I think all the Beach Boys look okay for their age, including Brian. There are people their age who look older. The only people who look younger either had plastic surgery or are the freakish minority who look 10 years younger naturally, while most people look their age.

The guys look fine for their age - but lately, I am constantly reminded of the age of my heroes...which in turn, is a subtle reminder of my own aging. I guess I really did believe the endless summer was...well...endless.

Brian looks 72, simple as that
I've seen photos of the stones, McCartney and all the 60s rockers looking like they're at deaths door. Brian looks normal and at times fantastic
I'm just glad he's still doing what he does best

McCartney doesn't look like he's at death's door at all. He looks, acts, and sings great for his age.

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

Yeah, these photos of Brian were bumming me out for a while. But as long as his health is okay is what's important.
Funny enough though, the Beach Boy who I think has aged the worst is Bruce oddly. Sometime within the past five years he's gotten to the point where when he smiles, you can't see his eyes. His face is that saggy. So, ya know, it's just what happens.
Al on the other hand, I know he gets a lot of sh*t for his looks, but I still think he looks good.

I wonder if it's going to be a re-write (variation) of "Pet Sounds" like he did with "Salt lake city" and "Desert Drive"
