Thanks for sharing that!

I want to see a more in-depth assessment of their clothes, particularly from the '66-'67 years. I found their England photos to be pretty inspiring back when I was first getting into Smile (photos in LLVS). Brian's Pet Sounds pea coat is classic but he also wore a British Warm in the Lake Arrowhead photos. Brian also sported a big fur coat in the 60s, if memory serves.

Are there any photos of the Beach Boys in tweed?

I don't think much of anybody ever has, and justifiably for the most part.

I love that they added the short-sleeved but otherwise "which one doesn't fit" delicious pic at the end.

Well, I've never thought of ANYone in music biz as style icons. I don't know why some of you have to chalk it up to the BBs' "squareness". Musicians make music, they don't strive to book cat walks. Style is 2ndary. Music is primary.
