Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: Lowbacca on May 25, 2012, 04:41:57 PM Quote Mike Love: When we first got back together again we covered ourselves. We did "Do It Again," and Brian comes up to me and says, "How can a 70-year-old sound that good?" Well, I've been practicing. [laughs] He was very complimentary. ;D ;D ;DWilson: He sounds as young as he did in 1963. Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: Jim V. on May 25, 2012, 04:48:09 PM Awesome that it seems like Brian was pushing from "Please Let Me Wonder" and "This Whole World". Which is kinda crazy cuz those were the two songs I really hoped I'd see them play, and they did!
Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: Shady on May 25, 2012, 04:58:40 PM Is this a cover story? I remember reading they were meant to be on the billboard cover
Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: Magic Transistor Radio on May 25, 2012, 05:01:07 PM That is the first time I recall Mike talking about Wild Honey. Have they done that song this year? They didn't do it in Dallas.
Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: Les P on May 25, 2012, 05:01:17 PM Brian: "It's like revisiting an old town you used to live in 20 years ago."
A very interesting and evocative analogy. Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: Les P on May 25, 2012, 05:56:34 PM That is the first time I recall Mike talking about Wild Honey. Have they done that song this year? They didn't do it in Dallas. AFAIK, nothing from "Wild Honey" so far.

A very interesting and evocative analogy. Yes. Way better than "it's like a reunion."

Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: Amy B. on May 25, 2012, 06:50:42 PM The article says the album was produced by Brian and executive produced by Mike. What is the role of an executive producer?
Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: Wirestone on May 25, 2012, 07:16:24 PM The article says the album was produced by Brian and executive produced by Mike. What is the role of an executive producer? It's largely honorary. Sometimes it means the person named has been essential in putting the album together in some way (which, possibly, Mike was). It was the union of Mike and Brian that made the reunion possible (Al wanted to be along no matter what), and it seems like part of the deal was that Mike got a credit on the album and the chance to write lyrics for a few tunes. Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: Runaways on May 25, 2012, 07:16:58 PM The article says the album was produced by Brian and executive produced by Mike. What is the role of an executive producer? It's more of a title isn't it? Mike probably added his two cents, but wouldn't count much more than anyone else cept that he's mike. Producer does all the leg work. Same with movies, a lot of the times the executive producer may choose a director or something, but after that the producers do all the work. Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: ♩♬🐸 Billy C ♯♫♩🐇 on May 25, 2012, 07:32:34 PM A lot of times in music, the 'executive producer' is the money man.
Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: Ziggy Stardust on May 25, 2012, 07:55:32 PM Wow that was quite awesome of Mike Love to bring up Wild Honey and show some love!
also David Marks giving some love to Holland, is this guy awesome or what. Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: DonnyL on May 25, 2012, 07:59:59 PM Mike was the "Executive in Charge of Production for Brother Entertainment" on Summer in Paradise.
Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: southbay on May 26, 2012, 06:50:36 AM Also executive produced Stars and Stripes
Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: lance on May 26, 2012, 10:11:50 AM That is some track record. Oh, hell, it's more than I've done.
Title: Re: New Billboard article Post by: Kamandi on May 26, 2012, 10:50:18 PM Hopefully Bruce's assistant remembered to pack this issue before the band's California leg of this tour.
