Title: I Can Hear Music is finished! Post by: MBE on August 03, 2011, 03:04:43 AM After having the idea since 1994, I finally completed my book on The Beach Boys. Recently becoming a free lancer was the best thing I ever did for myself! Thanks to all my friends on here for all your support over the years. As soon as I know something about getting it out I will let you all know. Without this board and the people on here it wouldn't be half of what it is.

It's a biography, but also a look at every original Beach Boys LP and 45 song by song. It has a lot of interviews I did, and my goal was to make it fact based, but not dry. It's subjective to a point, but I try to present all views when general opinion differs from mine. As I am a record collector I also put in info on what has and has not made it to vinyl. Title: Re: I Can Hear Music is finished! Post by: phirnis on August 03, 2011, 01:22:22 PM I really like that approach, looking forward to reading this!
