To me that Cover Album is is disgrace.  The Original Album of Dennis Wilson should not be touched. I love his music and I want that so I can treasure it in memory of Dennis Wilson

Interesting ... and if it weren't for the exorbitant international postage I'd be tempted to invest in a copy. I think 'Surfer' kinda misses the point in referring to the project as a 'disgrace' in that this, or any similar work is merely paying homage to the talents and songwriting abilities of the original artist and I, for one, acknowledge and like the approach and re-interpretation of what I consider one of the greatest albums... ever.
True, in my heart, it'll never match the original for the intensity and beauty, but to refer to it as a disgrace is simply... plain ridiculous. You don't have to like it, or listen to it, but recognise it for what it is. Genuine acknowledgement of DW in his prime...

It's a compliment to Dennis and his music more than anything else IMO
