Was "Songs From Here And Back" a unique live album or just rehashed tracks from older live LP's?

I found, on one website, the tracklist for an album called "Fun" by the Catalinas, which was apparently another one of Bruce's gratuitous fly-by-night surf groups.  (It apparently featured Leon Russell on piano.)

However, I can't find ANY other information about this album, and unlike Bruce's other side projects, this one doesn't seem to have been released on CD.

Anybody??

(By the way, if anyone's getting curious... my discography is coming soon.  It will be a downloadable DOC file.)

I want to include the physical fitness album, but I don't know where it falls chronologically.  The Bellagio page's "Ones That Got Away" page is missing stuff like that (along with "40 Top 40's", which I don't think was ever released even though Andrew's book mentions it, and "Stars and Stripes 2".)

I added some sections:

BLONDIE CHAPLIN
* Blondie Chaplin
* Ostrich Man (with Skollie) - I can't find a tracklist for this ANYWHERE.
* Fragile Thread
* Between Us

THE FLAMES/THE FLAME
* Ummm! Ummm! Oh Yeah!
* That's Enough
* Burning Soul!
* Soulfire!!
* Soul Meeting!!
* The Flame
(There are at least three other Flames albums as well, including an unreleased Brother Records release I believe, but all of these are compilations.  Incidentally, I wouldn't mind hearing these albums - would be interesting to hear a young Stig O'Hara doing Beatles covers!!  )

THE RUTLES
* The Rutles (both versions)
* Archaeology
* Sweet Rutle Tracks (the album's worth of unreleased material that's been passed around on countless bootlegs... "Sweet Rutle Tracks" was the name of the core bootleg though, and all others are just rip offs of it)

Still not sure about David Marks, though.

EDIT: Added "Disco Celebration" - I'd never heard of that one.  I also started a David Marks section...

DAVID MARKS
* Without Earth (with The Moon)
* The Moon (with The Moon)
-> I don't know the tracklists of these.  I know there's a 2fer CD, but I can't tell where one album stops and the other begins!
* Something Funny Goin' On
* I Think About You Often
* Live At Blue Dolphin
-> There are a couple David Marks compilations as well - "The Lost Years" and a collection of Marksmen songs.

Well, what's the medley and stuff then?

(The album's subtitled "The 25th Anniversary Tour", but I don't know if that matters... Pink Floyd put out an album called "Tour '75" or something that was just a promotional album, and made up of studio tracks.)

Alright, my 'simple' Beach Boys discography is about 45 pages now... because everytime I look, I find another friggin' album!!  But can someone more knowledgeable look over these lists of albums I've covered and see if I'm missing anything?

That's all I have so far, and hopefully I haven't missed anything because this is getting rather huge... and I still have to fit David Marks, Blondie Chaplin, and Ricki Fataar in there somehow. 

*sigh*

Anyone have info on this Sunkist promo LP? 

Apparently this is a live album - are all tracks unique (i.e., not taken from other live albums)?

Alright, that's all I needed to know, unless there are some I'm missing (which I doubt believe there are)...

I thought "Rock 'N' Roll Again" was *missing* California Dreaming?

Yes but, the question still remains... does anyone have track lists for all this stuff? 

Well in that case, what are the tracklists for "Rock & Roll City" and "Christmas Party"?

EDIT: I found two more albums - "Listen To The Air: American FM" and "Listen To The Air: Winter Party On The Beach".  Anyone have info about these??

The liner notes to "Smiley Smile/Wild Honey" mention that Brian was going to record an album about physical fitness but never did...

Anyone else ever hear about this??

You know, I listened to "Battle Hymn" finally...

That doesn't actually live up to its bad reputation.  Quite a fun listen, actually.  Mike fumbles it a little bit, but it's certainly not as godawful as most people have said!

Does anyone know if the original German misprint of "Holland" (with We Got Love instead of Sail On Sailor) still came with the bonus EP??

For my discography I'm putting together, I need the tracklists (and any other track details, if possible) for the Mike and Dean releases: "Rock 'N' Roll City", "Rock 'N' Roll Again", "Christmas Party", "Scrooge's Rock 'N' Roll Christmas", and any others I may have missed.

Thanks in advance!

Incidentally, what mix of "Til I Die" is on the other Landlocked boots then?

I'm assuming they mean, to replace Brian for live performances ONLY, and not as the leader of the group?

Ah, you're the person who wrote that discography I believe?  Just the person I was looking for!    Incidentally, are you ever going to update that page?  I mean, now that "Mike Love, Not War" can officially be added to the list.

Incidentally, speaking of "Landlocked", what do you think about the booklet's note that "Til I Die" was an extraneous track not part of the 'album'?  I've never heard a Landlocked boot that had it, but if they're talking about the "Endless Harmony" version (which I believe they are), I would be inclined to agree with them... I wouldn't imagine that strange mix being intended for official release in any way.

Yep, it's an original, with the booklet intact.  The booklet raised a question though... it states that the BB's unreleased final Capitol album was actually meant to be titled "The Last Capitol Album", whereas the Bellagio discography calls it "Reverberation".

Which is the proper title?

I was in a music store today and picked up a CD called "Landlocked and Rarities Vol. 2" for about 25 bucks... sound quality's pretty decent. 

Anyone know how this ranks among other "Landlocked" boots?

Well, using the Eighties version was a rough approximation - the article said that the "I'm In Great Shape" that supposedly appeared on "Remember The Zoo" 'evolved' into "Poor Old Body." 

(And yes, I'm well aware of the "Smile" track of that same title.)

Not that great... looks unprofessional and MS Paint-ish.

Speaking of "Pet Sounds" related stuff... I *FINALLY* got around to putting together a rough "Remember The Zoo"... not half bad really!  Obviously, it doesn't much resemble what the phony article described, but it's still interesting to hear.  My version was something like this...

1) In The Back Of My Mind (standard version)
2) Let Him Run Wild ('alternate version' I found online)
3) Summer Means New Love (standard version)
4) The Little Girl I Once Knew (45 version from box)
5) Trombone Dixie (trimmed to remove chatter)
6) In My Childhood ('Still Believe', left channel folded to mono)
7) Pet Sounds (left channel folded to mono)
8} I'm Waiting For The Day (an 'alternate version' I believe?)
9) I'm In Great Shape ('He Couldn't Get His Poor Old Body To Move' - the Brian track, folded to mono, with 60's style bass and reverb.  Hey, I was just following the article.)
10) Tones (the Carl 'Smile' track.  Makes a nice closer!)

As for the two missing tracks ("Teeter-Totter Love" and "Remember The Zoo"), I might include the Marcels' TTL if it sounds Beach Boys-ish, AND if I can find it (hint hint), and may fake "Zoo", if I can... but for now, it's not that bad of an album.  Very down-beat and Pet Sounds-ish, in fact!

Thanks for digging up this post, whoever did! 

He's right - you can't get all 17 minutes of "In A Gadda Da Vida" on iTunes, AND that song has never been released in full on an Iron Butterfly greatest hits set.  Sad really, especially for a one hit wonder band...

A while back I remember reading about an unreleased 1982 album called "Cousins, Friends and Brothers"... I might've even asked about it here.  I can't remember doing so so there's a possibility that the thread just didn't attract that much attention.

But is this album real?  It's not listed in that great "The Ones That Got Away" list on the Bellagio site...

What would you choose as the top contender for 'worst Beach Boys parody ever'?

My vote, as evidenced by the header, is "Upholstery" from the movie Phantom Of The Paradise.  Great movie, crappy song.
