Hmm, so a gig with Friends and Little Bird been played live is recorded, that's interesting. There isn't any show of that tour available so far. I would love to hear a show from that era.

During the Surfer Girl rehearsals in Hawaii 1967, you can hear Bruce say, when he hits a wrong key on the organ: "Oh f*ck, son of a b*tch!"

It always makes me laugh.

You're welcome

Thanks. 

Although your site mentions that the Wembley 1980 gig features the song "Goin' On", but it isn't in the setlist? Did you forget to add that song?

Anyway, keep up the good work.

I would be more interested in new live stuff.

But it's not a bad compilation. A bit strange maybe, but not bad.

Brian - Don't Talk (Put Your Head On My Shoulder)

Carl - Our Sweet Love

Dennis - Baby Blue

Al - Lady Lynda

Mike - Meant For You

Bruce - Tears In The Morning

But that changes from time to time.

The Beach Boys at Long Beach 1981. With Jan & Dean.

Ah yes, I got the complete show. Really interesting show. No Carl, which is really disappointing. A good setlist, with nice suprises like Surfin' and Long Tall Texan. Brian had some trouble during Don't Worry Baby, trying to reach the falsetto notes, but without great success. But for the effort he deserves my respect.

Where did you got this info? A website or...?

Both setlists are on Eric's site ---> link:

The show from 1970 sounds interesting, a audience recording exists, as far as I know.

Yes, Dennis was not at a good point that time. But still it's great that all six were there.

Too bad it misses songs like Sumahama, Lady Lynda and Good Timin'. I especially enjoyed this version of Heroes And Villians and Rock 'N' Roll Music.

Thanks for this link. Again, really great quality. Too bad it's an incomplete recording. They sound really tight.

Yes, it must be fake then. A shame really, a website which has fake bull**** on it. Why doesn't the webmaster first check if the bootlegs really exist before putting it on the website? The Murry 1001 label must be a fake then too. It was too good to be true, I guess.

Ah well, thanks for your answers. I think I know enough for now.

Little Deuce Coupe was played again in 1974.

409 and Surfin' Safari could be requests from the audience or songs they've tried in the beginning, but dropped later on, because it didn't work very well. I mean, they were a progressive band at that time, so those songs didn't really fit in their set. Maybe Blondie or Ricky didn't agree with those songs to be played, as they had a big influence on their progressive sound. Or those songs could be small improvisations...

Pet Sounds and those Smile songs are a big question-mark in my mind. Really strange. But then again, Pet Sounds was packed with Carl And The Passions in a double LP-set in 1972, if my mind serves me well. Maybe they wanted to try some things?

As I said, I heard that they played a few Dennis' songs during that tour. Forever, River Song and even Steamboat. So, I leave this possibility open...

Susie Cincinnati was written in 1970 and could be in the setlist. But, it's very unlikely. Maybe a improvisation or request again? Who knows...

And DID they played in Big Sur in those years? As I mentioned earlier, it could be combination of two years (1972 and 1973) as it is stated on that website.

Opinions are welcome.

Well, first my question would be:
Did they really play CABINESSENCE, FALL BREAKS AND BACK TO WINTER, PET SOUNDS and STEAMBOAT live? I don't think so....
 

Well, that's a strange thing yes. But, I heard rumours that they did played Steamboat live. It's a dream setlist, if you ask me.

And why would someone come up with a fake bootleg? It doesn't make sense to me. On the other hand, there is nothing to be found about this one. It would be really great if this bootleg is real, but I doubt it. That's why I started this topic.

Hello. I'm new here and yes I came here to ask some questions about a bootleg, here is the link:

http://www.cabinessence.net/boots/bigsur.shtml

Is this bootleg for real, I mean, it has a very strange setlist for that time, lots of rarities. It says that it's from the Murry 1001 Label. Of course I Googled this, but no results (only that particular website).

I contacted the webmaster about this, but no reply yet. Maybe anybody here knows more about this one. It could be a combination of 2 years live at Big Sur, but did they play there in 1972 and 1973?

Since I'm a collector, I would like to know this. And the Holland/Carl And The Passions era is my favourite.

Thanks in advance!
