Title: Surf's Up book Post by: mikeyj on October 26, 2007, 07:17:30 AM Is it true that there is an updated version of Brad Elliott's book apparently published in 2003? If so, what's new in the book?

Title: Re: Surf's Up book Post by: thomasogg on October 26, 2007, 08:13:58 PM Is it any good? I generally most interested in the SMiLE period and the years thereafter leading up to Holland - a good read re this particular period?
Title: Re: Surf's Up book Post by: MBE on October 26, 2007, 08:26:31 PM It's a discography. A fairly good one.

I generally most interested in the SMiLE period and the years thereafter leading up to Holland - a good read re this particular period? More a discography/sessions guide than a read. It's very good but the info. finishes in early 80's so is incomplete. My copy lives in my bathroom, such is frequency of use.

Title: Re: Surf's Up book Post by: thomasogg on October 26, 2007, 09:38:05 PM Oh, ok. Just the first sentence needed there really...
Title: Re: Surf's Up book Post by: dogear on October 27, 2007, 12:06:57 AM An update was planned a couple of years ago, but it never came to pass. Other intersting sections of the book: Radioshows and discographies of Bruce, Van Dyke Parks et al.
Title: Re: Surf's Up book Post by: Steve Mayo on October 27, 2007, 06:40:13 AM around 1983 an update was to be done. in fact brad ask for $10 from people to fund it. i sent in money, like others. update never happened...brad said he would issue refunds....never got it back either. i never sent in any money for other projects he said he was working on in the following years and ask for money in advance.....
