Is that common now?

Is that common now? I've seen singles released like this for decades. It's more of a European-style, right? Title: Re: Al Jardine Record Store Day appearance + new single art (ex. first look) Post by: Mikie on April 14, 2011, 10:57:12 AM No it isn't, MDH. It's the retro look. Remember when you had to buy a plastic adapter to fit into the hole in the center of the 45 (single) so you could place it on the spindle of the record player? This record is kinda like a 33 1/3 vinyl album, without the need for an adapter to play it.
I don't think most people are gonna play it anyway. For me it's a collectible to be stored with my Beach Boys 45's.

Anybody else here going? So you gonna ask Al a juicy box set related question, or just play it cool?!! Title: Re: Al Jardine Record Store Day appearance + new single art (ex. first look) Post by: juggler on April 14, 2011, 11:02:57 AM Jardine will also field questions from fans regarding the upcoming SMiLE box set release.
Mikie (and anyone else going to Amoeba): If Al is going to be answering questions about the Smile box, you need to ask some of them (and report back here ASAP on Saturday)!!

He'll look at me with a weird look on his face and say, "Next in line please!"

I love the sound of vinyl!
Title: Re: Al Jardine Record Store Day appearance + new single art (ex. first look) Post by: Pretty Funky on April 14, 2011, 02:12:25 PM I would think track listing etc is a work in progress but I would hope they have a yay/ nay on the Frank Holmes artwork by now. Worth a shot Mikie!

Anybody else here going? Are you going to Japantown to see Al play?

Worth a shot Mikie! Yeah, even though the track listing is probably more important, the Holmes artwork might be worth asking about. I just hope they keep this packaging true to the proposed original release. London already had his chance in 2004 (and did a good job) but........this is a Beach Boys SMiLE release this time. Let's get it right! I'm not sure Al will know what the track line-up will be. I kinda doubt it, but I'll ask him if it's finalized yet. Title: Re: Al Jardine Record Store Day appearance + new single art (ex. first look) Post by: Mikie on April 14, 2011, 02:42:34 PM Are you going to Japantown to see Al play? I don't think so. I already committed to taking the little woman to another concert early Saturday night. Besides, it's a total zoo in Chinatown on weekends, especially to park. Last time it cost me $20.00 to park for just a couple of hours and I had to walk about 5 blocks to get there! I'm sure Les and/or other Bay Area BB fans will be in Chinatown and will give a little report.

I should ask him about the time Brian made him crawl around the floor making animal noises! If I have the chance, I'll ask him if he has an update about a Beach Boys reunion this year..... |
