Jumping Jack Flash…..WHOA! 👍

Yep, it's on Spotify in Australia.

Same in NZ. Nice to hear Mike crediting Billy for the lead in the 1975 live ‘Sail On Sailor’. 👏👏👏

Nice little teaser being promoted for a official short animation release tomorrow.

I can think of a few guests who I would like to see there, health permitting. Neutral ground and promoting a great set. Calling Rob Reiner! 😉

Forgetting the alcohol/ Mike thing for a minute, I just googled ‘Hit Songs 1988’. As well as Kokomo, ‘Simply Irresistible’ by Robert Palmer came up.
Just how successful would a aftershave or cologne be named after a 35 year old song? Every year hundreds of products are released using much more relevant artists and they still fail. The young liquor buyer will see a name that means nothing to them with a picture of some old guy who they don’t know and walk right on pass. I also don’t think October is the season for this product and I doubt it will be around next summer. Just my 2 cents.

I think Mike was promoting it at a club in NJ.

More members of Brian's band are tagged on the post. Darian is at the keyboard, percussionist Jim Laspesa is there. I'd bet there's some sort of BW project going on. Kind of doubt it would be an album, but who knows?

Might be bringing back his annual Christmas song?

Club Kokomo. The brand I thought was dead is now back on life support!

https://clubkokomospirits.com/

Crafted and produced in San Diego, California and founded by Mike Love of the Beach Boys, Club Kokomo Spirits focuses on providing consumers with a top shelf sensory visit to the islands of the Caribbean. Years ago Mike enjoyed a particularly well-made Mojito as he hummed the chorus of his co-authored hit song Kokomo. His penchant for wordplay took over as he uttered the word, “Kokomojito”. Ever since, Mike’s dream has been to share the spirit of Kokomo to the world. From that original state of mind to a present day reality, Welcome to Club Kokomo.

I found SURFIN mentioned in a search, but it finished Friday 0700.

So I may be behind the times, but was the fact Mike can officiate weddings, and did so for John Stamos make the message boards?

.
But this time I caved, having just ordered the Limited Super Deluxe vinyl edition simply for the lithographs and Holland book (call me a sucker), and I will no doubt get the CDs for most of my actual listening.

I think you have answered the question yourself. It’s all about maximising the return for a business and I don’t think the Beach Boys and the label are any different.

The amazon situation is a disaster. No surprise there

Same thing happened with FF last year from memory. Others can chime in but it would not surprise me if these sets have an initial run planned then up it as demand warrants.
65  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: Sail On Sailor box set on: September 29, 2022, 11:23:55 PM
Still nothing on amazon

Interested if any ok had to be given by Jagger/ Richards over the inclusion of Jumpin Jack Flash ‘Live’?

Given the amount of live covers the Stones have done over their time, is the process complicated?

Thanks

In terms of audio releases, as long as proper royalties are paid (which of course the label handles) and the song has already been published/copyrighted, no clearances or permissions are needed. Audio releases like this just pay a flat royalty. Where it gets complicated is the rights to put a song into any sort of video/film. There, permission needs to be sought and the owner of the song can ask for any amount they want. A million dollars per second if they want.

So if they had a video/film of the BBs doing the song, then that would become immensely more expensive. Though, in that case they'd only have to pay for the composition, whereas movies that want to use the song *and* the original Stones recording would have two levels of negotiation/payment involved.

This explains why "tribute" albums are plentiful, but putting songs (and even more so original recordings) into movies and TV becomes much more involved. There are more Beatles (or whomever) tribute/covers albums then there are movies and TV shows with Beatles songs in them.

This is why a Beach Boys documentary or concert video/film can also become a costly proposition; the BBs and their various entities own some of the recordings and some of the publishing, but not all. This is one of the reasons something like that "Live at Knebworth 1980" DVD or the 50th Anniversary Tour "Live in Concert" Blu-ray only have partial setlists.

Thanks HeyJude. Unlikely to see JJF in any Box Set video promotion then. 😉

Two disc’s of Carnegie Hall. That’s worth the price alone.

Speaking of which, $66 for 6 discs is great value. I don’t recall the FF set being close to that.

Howie, can you narrow it down to a month? Has this box set been a ‘circular firing squad’ fiasco like the last?

Can you at least tell us some things to be excited about? Or songs/snippets you enjoyed?

I’m not even sure Al would spill the beans, but good try. 😉

I may have missed something, but is it officially’The ‘Sail On Sailor Box Set’?

Story

https://www.gwhatchet.com/2022/09/19/alumnus-chronicles-friendship-with-beach-boys-star-brian-wilson-in-new-book/

I laughed at this.

‘He said the two have a normal friendship going swimming together, getting dinner with their wives and singing in the car.’

I don’t imagine these two are heading to the Y doing laps any time soon. 😁

For someone who has praised TM and positivity for over 50 years, Mike sure gives a negative interview. ☹️
Even though he repeatedly praised Brian as a vocal arranger in that interview, and a great collaborator. Even though he said Carl sang Good Vibrations beautifully. If I hadn't listened to the interview myself, I would have thought - going by the response here - that Mike spent 15 minutes saying "Carl smoked himself to death, Dennis drank himself to death, and Brian is basically comatose today because of all the drugs he did". Actually, I think if Mike were to really let loose on how he feels about working with Brian today, you guys would be even more enraged.
I'm reminded of a comment Carl made about Brian back in 1981: "he doesn't hurt anybody, but he likes to hide a lot". That's why he has people around him to handle the stuff he doesn't like doing.
Or maybe I got that quote wrong; maybe it was "he doesn't hide anybody, but he likes to hurt a lot"  LOL

I stand by the post LS. I think you know I refer to interviews in general rather than just this one.
