Its like a trivia question at my work of who my fav band is. People just can't believe it.

One time, a co worker thought my cd labeled as "Beach Boys rarities" was filled with porn, and the label was just a cover up.

Little did he know, it was true. 

(JK)

Whoa! Had no idea...that'd be great to listen to.

plus his Van Halen demos.

What?

I don't think its that buried. I took out the SOT's yesterday to listen to the 12 string on GoK, then I headed on over to listen to IJWMFTT and was able to hear it pretty clear in a few takes.

Anyway, nice playing on the job! So weird to know that this is in a song like IJWMFTT.

that classic hard to fine beach boys tshirt with the brothers logo

in every color possible, so i can get all of them

keep your negative vibrations off this board!

If a dude can make you angry enough that you amrry his daughter, who is, coincidentally your cousin, in order to get back at him, then that dude must be doing something seriously wrong to piss people off like that.

I'm a beardly Brianista, but singling out Mike Love for being a douche bag in the Beach Boys is kind of unfair considering the sh*t the rest of the Beach Boys did. They were a group of insane persons, mostly related, into way too many drugs, high on their egos, friggin' everything that ever moved ever, drinking themselves to death and breathing in cocaine like air, friggin' each other's wives, suing each other, recording Kokomo, you;re out of the band buckwheat! The Beach Boys were all stellar douche bags. god-tier buttholes. Even Brian.


Especially Brian.

 But he's the genius, and almost every idea Mike Love has ever had that didn't involve facial hair was a terrible idea. Especially if the idea involved either music, or clothes. So I think that counts for something in Brian's favor.

This should be inscribed in their Hawthorne memorial...or whatever it is.

Very cool!

I really like the backing track!

Girl Talk - In Step

Fast forward to 2:52

Tried that as well, Josh. Just saying I ended up having it blasting at the end, but nada.

Really dug the drum beat they put under it.

Girl Talk used God Only Knows on one of his tracks, put a breakbeat under it. Sounded cool.

I blasted this in my headphones and cannot hear it. I tried and tried but its really hidden in there. I guess I can bust out the session tapes. Still, loved the youtube video.

Thumbs up! Like the direction you're going in.

--edit--

This reminds me of Gaga's Summer Boy, which just happens to be my fav song of hers!

For 26 years I heard the mono version on various vinyl and CD releases. Then I heard the stereo version in 1996 and was BLOWN OUT!!!
Not even a second thought about it.

Same here. No contest. Its like finally having sex without wearing a condom.

Classic!

awww group hug everyone

deluxe set comes with a gun and whiskey

Or make Producer Band, where you have a simple mixing console in front of you with a microphone and talk back button and you have to instruct the musicians (on your screen) what to do and mix the song down to produce a hit.

[like Real Beach Boy and a number of others, seem to value mainly the fun-in-the-sun, good time stuff, and don’t care too much about the sophistication of the music.]

This is only a generalization, but there will always be two competing groups of Beach Boys fans.  One group is drawn by complex albums like Pet Sounds and Smile and is fascinated by Brian.  The other group, like Real Beach Boy and a number of others, seem to value mainly the fun-in-the-sun, good time stuff, and don’t care too much about the sophistication of the music.

It’s not too surprising that each group’s perceptions of Mike are very different.

That's like a serious kick to the balls. The Real Beach Boy is a Beach Boys fan, period. He is a walking, breathing, living Beach Boys encyclopedia and most of all, you can tell he loves the music.

its personal preference

and its my right not to tell you

Are the properties songs?

So whats Boardwalk? Good Vibrations? Kokomo? Or Barbara Ann?

I'm loving this monopoly idea

Houses = Smile Shops
Hotels = Capitol Building (idk)

Need to see video of this

Arriving.

BTW. Who is the long haired/ long bearded guy behind Brian being interviewed.

I think Brian picked up Mike from the 60s in his time traveling machine.

After seeing that Yoko OHNO! won this very award 2 years ago sorta takes the prestige out of it.

I thought the same thing, Mr Booooooouuuuuuuurrrrrrrnnnnnneeeeeessssssssssss.
