Did Al secretly sing all the songs I thought were done by BW?
Title: Re: Fav Band Member Vocal Post by: John on January 26, 2007, 12:06:26 PM It's both Al and Brian, isn't it?
Title: Re: Fav Band Member Vocal Post by: Shady on January 26, 2007, 02:31:08 PM Yeah Al And Brian
Title: Re: Fav Band Member Vocal Post by: grillo on January 26, 2007, 02:38:34 PM No way! Who does what, and when? Ever since joining this board my fragile hold on reality has become ever so tenuous!!!
Title: Re: Fav Band Member Vocal Post by: Shady on January 26, 2007, 03:40:04 PM Hmm, well smack me if i'm wrong,
But Al opens with the Im gonna chow down,, and then brian takes the mama says parts, I think :o Title: Re: Fav Band Member Vocal Post by: John on January 26, 2007, 03:44:23 PM I figured that maybe there was some unison/harmony by Brian going on after the first verse, with Al in the lead, Bri does the mama says bits, and Brian is the "I know that you'll feel better...." section. Without listening to it, though...
Title: Re: Fav Band Member Vocal Post by: halblaineisgood on January 26, 2007, 11:39:47 PM brian - surfer girl
carl - wild honey dennis - little bird mike - arent you glad al - rhonda Title: Re: Fav Band Member Vocal Post by: JimC1702 on January 27, 2007, 09:53:06 AM Brian - Ballad of Ol' Betsy
Carl - Time to Get Alone Dennis - Forever Mike - Meant for You Al - Help Me Rhonda Bruce - Disney Girls Title: Re: Fav Band Member Vocal Post by: phirnis on January 28, 2007, 03:32:38 AM Brian - Ballad of Ol' Betsy Carl - Time to Get Alone Great choices! Ballad doesn't seem to receive the recognition it deserves, perhaps due to its lyrical content, which in my book is both totally charming and funny. Talking about the Little Deuce Coupe album, one of my favorite Mike Love lead vocals might be Cherry, Cherry Coupe alongside Hawaii, Big Sur, and Anna Lee The Healer. Title: Re: Fav Band Member Vocal Post by: Sheriff John Stone on January 28, 2007, 08:27:48 AM Brian - Ballad of Ol' Betsy Great choices! Ballad doesn't seem to receive the recognition it deserves, perhaps due to its lyrical content, which in my book is both totally charming and funny. Agree. Didn't Mike & Bruce include "Betsy" in their setlist recently? Talking about the Little Deuce Coupe album, one of my favorite Mike Love lead vocals might be Cherry, Cherry Coupe One of my favorites, too. Underrated song, maybe because it wasn't a single. A little short, probably... Title: Re: Fav Band Member Vocal Post by: John on January 28, 2007, 09:29:54 AM It's standard length for a 1963 single. I think probably what would've disqualified it is Mike's distractingly uncertain phrasing on the last line of the first verse...
Title: Re: Fav Band Member Vocal Post by: Breakaway on January 28, 2007, 08:19:58 PM Brian: Kiss Me, Baby
Carl: This Whole World Dennis: Little Bird Mike: All I Wanna Do Al: Cotton Fields Bruce: Deirdre These are at the moment, and will probably change if you ask me later... ;) Title: Re: Fav Band Member Vocal Post by: Artie on January 29, 2007, 10:50:36 AM I can't believe no one has mentioned "Airplane" for Mike - that is far and away is best, in my ever so humble opinion.
Trying to pick Brian's best vocal is like looking through a drawer full of diamonds. Just can't do it. Title: Re: Fav Band Member Vocal Post by: MBE on January 29, 2007, 09:36:39 PM Brian- Time To Get Alone or She Knows Me Too Well
Dennis-Forever and Celebrate The News Carl- God Only Knows is great of course but I also like Darlin and You Need A Mess Of Help Al Cottonfields single version and Susie Cincinnatti Mike All I Wanna Do (the Sunflower recording I think that's the correct title) and It's OK Bruce With A Little Help (when sped up to correct speed) and Disney Girls Ricky We Got Love, and Don't Worry Bill (LP Version) Blondie Here She Comes and See The Light ( I think it's him) Dave I don't think he did the full lead on Summertime as I hear Brian, Carl. and Mike there too. He may have sung back up. Not really heard enough though I like his recent demos. Glen Guess I'm Dumb of course Title: Re: Fav Band Member Vocal Post by: Shady on January 31, 2007, 08:17:57 AM Thanks for all the replies :)
