Thanks all for the great responses and links. I appreciate all the help.

Cheers!

Thanks for all the responses. If it wasn't Richie Cannata, then does anyone know who would it have been?

As for some of the songs some have mentioned that aren't on the list, I wish I had a better memory to say for sure if the Setlist post is accurate. It does seem odd that "Do It Again" and "Darlin'" aren't on there.

And just to confirm my assumption, Brian would not have been there, correct? I always assumed not, but then I was thinking it would have been their 30th anniversary, so maybe there's a chance he was! (Probably not)

Hi all, my first time seeing the Beach Boys was 30 years ago at Cleveland Municipal Stadium after an Indians baseball game (June 1, 1991). I was about to turn 12. I've always wondered what the lineup for this concert was. I know Carl, Mike, Bruce and Al were there. I assume Brian wasn't there, but I was trying to confirm that.

From what I've been able to find, the backing band would have included:
-Adrian Baker
-Richie Cannata
-Ed Carter
-Billy Hinche
-Matt Jardine
-Mike Kowalski
-Mike Meros

Did I miss anyone?

-California Girls
-You're So Good to Me
-Then I Kissed Her
-Please Let Me Wonder
-Be True to Your School
-Don't Worry Baby

Thank you for any input!

A newer album that has come out since I last responded is JD McPherson's Socks. What a fun album! I highly recommend it.

The Rolling Stones, Blue & Lonesome, was really good. I can't say I've listened to many of the others listed.

Cool! Thanks for sharing.

[Birth of the Cool]

Hard to go wrong with Art Blakey and/or Thelonious Monk.

I continue to enjoy my exploration of the different corners of jazz. Since my last post, I added a few more albums from the third Record Store Day installment, with Dexter Gordon, later Miles Davis, Charles Mingus and J.J. Johnson and Kia Winding.

Did you know Kai Winding had a US top ten hit in 1963 with "More"?

I believe he's also on Miles's Birth of the Cool...

I did not know about Kai Winding's Top 10 hit. Thanks for the heads up. Both Winding and J.J. Johnson were on Brith of the Cool.

The completist in me want this RSD release, but I can't say I'm all that excited for it. I got the 2LP release earlier this year, and I'm trying to tell myself that's enough for me.

I've been building my nascent jazz collection over the last couple months. I recently started checking out the Blue Note Tone Poet series and the new Acoustic Sounds/Verve jazz reissues on vinyl. I also got the Bill Evans "Some Other Time: The Lost Session from the Black Forest" Record Store Day reissue this past weekend. I still don't know much about jazz, but I'm exploring and now own a bunch more of it.

How could we forget Blind Faith?

Eek, that's the one image in this thread that my browser refuses to reveal. If only I'd given it a caption...

My apologies, GH.

Haha. No worries. Just thought it was amusing.

I was very much looking forward to that Monk release.

Hope we'll get some answers on Feel Flows soon. If I've learned anything as a fan of the Beach Boys, it's to not be surprised by the drama.

Wow, it has been awhile since this thread has been active. Since my last update, I've read quite a few books. Here's the last three months:
-Star Wars: The Dark Lord Trilogy, by James Luceno and Matthew Stover
-Tarantula: Poems, by Bob Dylan
-The Beach Boys and the California Myth, by David Leaf
-The Underground Railroad, by Colson Whitehead
-Gone to the Country: The New Lost City Ramblers and the Folk Revival, by Ray Allen
-Red Dragon, by Thomas Harris

Right now, I'm reading Visions of Gerard, by Jack Kerouac.

I'm a physical media guy, mostly LPs (at home) and CDs (in the car). There are a couple local radio stations I enjoy, and I have Amazon Music for streaming, but I only really use that for previewings albums I'm on the fence about buying physically.

I emailed him a couple months ago too.  He responded and said he was planning to do a reprint later this year and he would let me know.  If I hear anything, I'll post it.

I just noticed he posted on Facebook about doing another printing in hardback and softcover. If anyone is still interested, make sure you email him! As a reminder, here's his website: http://ken-sharp.com/dennis-wilson/index.html

My mother/son dance was "When I Grow Up (To Be a Man)." After all, she was responsible for introducing me to the Beach Boys.

And congratulations to the OP and the rest of the soon-to-be newlyweds. Soak it all in, because the day goes so fast!

Wonderfully done. I love the illustrations. This was my mother-son dance song at my wedding.

I've preordered my vinyl copy directly from Omnivore Recordings. Looking forward to seeing the finished packaging! Nice get some good news these days.

I finished Dylan's Chronicles (enjoyed) and followed that up with Woody Guthrie's Bound for Glory (loved). Now, I'm reading Ficciones, by Jorge Luis Borges, which has been on my to-read list for like 20 years. So far, so good.

So why post it on YouTube at this particular time?

They've been posting snippets of Brian Wilson interviews about specific songs for the last two weeks. They've been all over the place in terms of timeline, early 1960s to 1970s. I wouldn't read too much into it. It's just the content machine churning out material for clicks.

That's interesting. Promo labels usually still have the track listing. I'll be curious to find out the answer.

Really love that Sunflower shirt!

I read the fifth edition of Mystery Train. The Notes and Discographies section was longer than the main part of the book, and to me it became tedious to read. I skimmed the last 100 pages. From what I understand, Greil Marcus has expanded the Notes and Discographies with each edition. I think it starts to detract from the quality of the narrative.

I've gotten through a few books since my last post.
-Beartown, by Fredrik Backman (good)
-Mystery Train, by Greil Marcus (half good)
-And Then There Were None, by Agatha Christie (good)

Now, I'm reading Chronicles, Volume One, by Bob Dylan.
