It is true that many were never saved. It is sad...... i actually called many productions companies for many various talk/variety shows thinking that i could do some sort of money making website..... the overall answer was "not saved" like soap operas and other daily shows.....

what a shame..... i for one miss the old fashioned (most corny) celebrity variety shows..... many lost interviews with WW2 era stars and 50's&60's ... lost forever

Mike Douglas was always good to the band. I remember seeing Mike solo doing "Everyone's in Love with you" (live with 3-4 non band musicians), AL solo on a different occasion and Brian solo...... He had a special fondness for them. Does anyone know where/how the Mike Douglas and BB relationship started?

MIKE LOVE = original shock joke (re-hall of fame speech)

I have been a GEEK type fan since the 60's and I have never understood the "loyal to Brian" OR "loyal to Mike" camps.....WHY can people not admit that if they love THE BEACH BOYS, that both were essential in getting a foothold with the early car and beach sound?

I did not hear this particular interview, but Howard has always been a BW fan and knows much more BB history than a causal fan would be expected to have.

And.....thanks Mr Lapage for allowing me to join the team!
