I guarantee that 98% of people will not notice that it is the wrong vehicle, wrong pants, shirts or whatever else people have pointed out here.

That is one of the classic images of the beach boys and I know its hard for some die hard BB fans to realize but surf boards and basically everything in that shot is what people think of when they hear the beach boys.

Not trying to be harsh at all but i just think it's being a bit overanalyzed (which can be fun don't get me wrong I'm a big fan as well). Yet I think this shot was done very well and hardly anyone is going to notice any discrepancies from the original image.

My jaw dropped when I saw that on Facebook this morning. Don't want to get my hopes up, but this album looks like it could be pretty good.

I'm hoping for a good sounding album personally, not just looks.

I heard Match Point of Our Love while doing some shopping at the mall a while back. I forget what store I was in but I didn't notice it was playing until it was almost over.

good timing

The Definitive Beach Boys Box Set.... Summer

Containing every snippet any of the members ever recorded.

I can vaguely hear the resemblance but I don't think it was intentional.

Especially considering it was the guy from Owl City who wrote that jingle.

Is this where Smiley Smile jumped the shark?

Yeah i've been listening to the holland version a little more since i posted a few days ago.

I really do like them both just in different ways.

I think the Landlocked version is better in small part due to the fact that I found it afterwards.
It was sort of like this little secret treasure. It took me by surprise that the beach boys would write a song that sounded like this.
Also I have some memories of driving down the Oregon coast with this song playing.
Whenever i listen to it I sort of have that imagery in the back of my head. So i'm sure that has something to do with it as well.
