Title: Whoa, Check This Out Post by: Shane on April 22, 2009, 10:47:55 PM I just found this concert recording of Brian from 1986... he is performing solo. God Only Knows sounds okay, but then Brian launches into "Surfer Girl", singing his original falsetto part, and its pretty darn good.

Brian looks goshdarn cool as f*** in a robe, with a bass guitar, long hair and a beard. What's the deal with the backing track though? The Beach Boys voices? But not the Wrecking Crew music? Wtf? That must've been a head trip. Title: Re: Whoa, Check This Out Post by: Andrew G. Doe on April 23, 2009, 02:11:01 AM I seriously doubt that audio is from 1986... and yeah, what's with the BB bvs on "GOK" ?

Title: Re: Whoa, Check This Out Post by: Christian on April 23, 2009, 10:43:22 AM I believe it's an early-1990s TV appearance; from the end of the Landy era. Itīs from an unaired Dion DiMucci TV special (1990 I think). Title: Re: Whoa, Check This Out Post by: Dutchie on April 23, 2009, 11:13:45 AM as stated on the back of the cd: tv appereance hosted by Dion. Brian did a very good performance i think.
It appears on a b##t cd ;) Title: Re: Whoa, Check This Out Post by: hypehat on April 23, 2009, 11:39:38 AM that's Dion? wow. i never thought he would've sounded like that.... :-\

Brian looks goshdarn cool as foda in a robe, with a bass guitar, long hair and a beard. In the late 70's, I had a poster of the Beach Boys and that picture was on it. There was another picture on the poster (I believe, it's been a awhile) with that same bathrobe and his arms extended over his head, acknowledging the applause. I think the photos are from a 12/31/76 concert. EDIT: I also think that photo is on the inside sleeve of the vinyl The Beach Boys Love You? Title: Re: Whoa, Check This Out Post by: phirnis on April 23, 2009, 02:36:32 PM There used to be a whole website dedicated to the Love You record, which had lots of those 1976-era bathrobe pictures.
Title: Re: Whoa, Check This Out Post by: Chris Brown on April 23, 2009, 07:41:54 PM His falsetto does indeed sound pretty good, although he did kinda cheat by lowering the key a step from the original. You can faintly hear the originally brilliance of his falsetto, which is always nice to hear.
