Title: Beach Boys albums (in full) on Youtube DK
Post by: GoogaMooga on September 22, 2020, 03:47:25 AM
Hello! Last night I was doing a bit of research on the year 1973 for a book on music history that I am writing. My CD collection is not in order and I can never find anything specific, it's the proverbial needle in a haystack. So I played four key albums on Youtube instead, to save time: Band On the Run, Let's Get It On, 3+3, and Holland. The first three I could play in full, but with Holland, some of the tracks were blocked! Why is that, I wonder. Perhaps intervention by BRI...? Can anyone here enlighten me as to why Beach Boys albums can't be played in full on Youtube DK (Denmark)?

I don't know why this is but I have a cover of Honkin down the Highway on Youtube and it's blocked in one country....yep....Denmark.
