Title: Brian "Surfin' USA" Quote? Post by: c-man on February 18, 2013, 09:33:08 AM Hey, can anyone help me out with this?...I'm looking for an exact quote from Brian on "Surfin' U.S.A."...he says something like "Surfin' USA was a combination of your Chuck Berry-styled rock 'n' roll guitar, your Mike Love lead vocal, and your Brian, Dennis, and Carl harmonies". Something to that effect. I think it was on some late '70s/early '80s documentary like "Portrait Of A Legend"...the footage I'm thinking of is from '77 (definitely, since he has the super-short buzz haircut), and he's laying outside on a lounge chair. I know that he also talked about how lots of people moved to California thinking life would be great, until they got out there & realized it wasn't so great. Maybe the two quotes are from two different interviews, but I'm thinking they were from the same one. Any help would be appreciated!
