Thank you for sharing this...I never even READ about that performance/video, much less seen it.

Did you ever notice that in the 1960's, the kids and background dancers danced to ANYTHING, no matter what the beat. There were even kids clapping to "Guess I'm Dumb", which never struck me as a clap along-type song.

I've read in a few Beach Boys' books that Glen Campbell never really "looked" like a Beach Boys, but I think differently. In many pictures and videos I've seen of Glen Campbell through the years, I see a big resemblance to Brian Wilson. Unfortunately, he also shared some of the Beach Boys' vices.

I think Glen could've fit in with the Beach Boys - if he wanted to. Could you imagine if Al would've moved to bass, and Glen Campbell and Carl would've shared guitar parts? And think what he could've added vocally. When you look at some of countryish songs that the Beach Boys played in the early/mid 70's, Glen would've fit in nicely. Of course, then we never would've had those great Jimmy Webb/Glen Campbell songs...

I'd like to know what Al and Glenn could have written together, since both were/are into Country/Folk.

The again, Glen and Dennis were both into booze, so things may've imploded a lot earlier...

I guess BW independent productions did get promoted back in the day, at least this one.
