Title: Japan 1979 Post by: Jay on April 03, 2009, 09:02:35 PM I hope this topic doesn't cross the line to much. ;) I have a chance to buy a Beach Boys boot named "On The Beach". It's taken from a show in Japan in 1979. It's only 11 songs though. I know that isn't the complete show. I was wondering if anybody knows if the complete recording of this show circulates. I don't really want to waste my money if there is a better version out there.

Title: Re: Japan 1979 Post by: Jason on April 04, 2009, 09:22:01 PM That's all that circulates - it was a TV broadcast of a whole show. Presumably the whole show was recorded to be edited later, but who knows?
Title: Re: Japan 1979 Post by: Jay on April 04, 2009, 10:59:39 PM Thanks. ;D Was it ever shown on TV, or was it a project that was later scrapped? What's the sound quality like?
Title: Re: Japan 1979 Post by: Jason on April 04, 2009, 11:09:24 PM It was shown on Japanese television. It's broadcast quality, although a little flat-sounding.
Although you shouldn't buy Beach Boys bootlegs. That's wrong. You won't be lining the Lovester's pockets if you buy boots. :) Title: Re: Japan 1979 Post by: Jay on April 05, 2009, 01:11:45 AM I wonder if anybody here has a video of that broadcast? ;)

Incidentally, Dennis was absent from this tour, as he was from most 1979 shows (after May, at least). Brian WAS there. Carli Munoz and Mike Meros were both in the band. And Bruce. Title: Re: Japan 1979 Post by: Jay on April 05, 2009, 07:30:25 PM Does Brian do any singing? Or does he mainly keep to himself as was the norm for him back then?
