Title: The Beach Boys at Farm Aid 1985 videos uploaded on YouTube Post by: Rocky Raccoon on February 12, 2013, 12:24:11 AM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zgcM6gchZo&list=SPNVdgfOEXnVq1IatRTuJ_IiRRPuN1_Nao&index=4
Some decent performances from Carl, Al, Mike, and Bruce but nothing that special though Al turns in a particularly awesome vocal on "Help Me, Rhonda."

I only knew the '86 footage and there are horrible because of Al's voice problem. This proofs how great Bobby Figueroa a drummer is.
Title: Re: The Beach Boys at Farm Aid 1985 videos uploaded on YouTube Post by: Cabinessenceking on February 12, 2013, 04:35:55 PM wow those performances sucked very hard. Farm Aid for the midwest? hue? Disgusting 80's clothing, the drummer (mike kowalski?) is utterly clueless and injecting the songs with endless and pointless cymbal bashing??? Myke being the dork as always.
Only thing good is (as always was) Carl's voice. Compare this sound to 1980 at Knebworth when they were still a rocking band. Compared to that this farm aid thing is hopeless. Often I wish they give it up after Dennis death. Instead you get USA nr 1 band featuring nasal mike and short-shorts retro boy Bruce. Man was any cool sucked out of the band by this time.

There are thousands of people in that audience who disagree with you.

My guess would be the same as Live Aid but with "Barbara Ann" in place of "Wouldn't It Be Nice".

Title: Re: The Beach Boys at Farm Aid 1985 videos uploaded on YouTube Post by: Jason on February 13, 2013, 07:14:45 AM That's certainly the best version of that concert I've ever seen, and for good reason - it's the master! Certainly looks better than the myriad of high generation VHS copies that float around.

Title: Re: The Beach Boys at Farm Aid 1985 videos uploaded on YouTube Post by: Aegir on February 13, 2013, 11:27:29 AM I think the really interesting thing about this footage is how terribly the sound is mixed. Mike's bass vocals are oftenway too loud for instance. What's also really cool is that Mike Meros is the most prominent instrumentalist in Good Vibrations. He definitely had a lot of work to do on that one.
