I just watched this today on YouTube and I found it really enjoyable. 

Do you have a link?

[Memory Almost Full]

Well, besides Bob Dylan, name me one big artist from the '60s era that is doing anything interesting?

McCartney, Memory Almost Full was superb and a minor hit.

Yes. A brilliant album if you ask me.

What about the reprint of "recording the beach boys" is that still in the pipeline?

I can´t say enough good things about this album!

I love the production, singing, songwriting.. The only tracks I would change  is "At my window" and "All I wanna do" which I´ve always thought should have been replaced with "San Miquel", "Susie Cincinatti", Good times or "Games too can play".

First I was kinda bugged that Brian didn´t sing more lead vocals on the album, but you can clearly hear him singing harmony in almost every song.


For me this is right up there with Pet Sounds, Today and Summer Days

[All Summer Long]

One of the best parts is the guy from Three Dog Night talking about how Brian had him, Alice Cooper, and Iggy Pop over and singing harmonies to "Shortening Bread."  Then Brian did something to make Iggy Pop have to leave, saying "this guys nuts!"  I wish I knew what Brian could have done to scare Iggy away!!

Just that - he got them to sing "mama...papa...mama...papa"

For three hours.

I think that was the same occaision that Brian told his guests to be quiet because the rest of the family was sleeping, then once in the studio, played some tapes over the speakers with the volume up to 11 !!

Little factoid - the first album Alice bought with his own money was All Summer Long.

Well, you gotta love this crazy guy, don't you ?

BTW Alice also went on record saying that "The Beach Boys were the american Beatles an vice versa". To tell the truth I never would have thought he is into the BBs....

I´ve heard Alice say that Pet Sounds is his all time favourite album 

Í´ve been trying to find this for a while. Anyone knows where I can get it on dvd?

I think Paul Simons version of Surfer girl is the standout track here. Simply amazing.

I bought this dvd a while back but haven´t watched it yet.
I guess now would be a good time
