Same here. Cancelled.

Is this Amazon's way of hiking up the price in a week of so and me not getting my 'Price Guarantee'?

Fantastic.

Yes, I had a great price guarantee, and I won't be re ordering any time soon through Amazon

As I have no record shop anywhere near me, I suppose I'll just be streaming this set. A real shame for those who worked hard on this. Sales are going to be hit.

For what it's worth, Greg, I just argued with Amazon customer service for over an hour and they (very) reluctantly agreed to honour my price guarantee if and when it comes back in stock. I did have to speak to a manager though.

What about the Around The World with Willy Fogg cartoon? From 1:22 the vocals get kinda Brian Wilson-y

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OwUOpjvha8M&t=1m21s

Ha! An old band of mine recorded a Beach Boys parody to that Willy Fog tune called '80 Dates Around The World'. It was around the the time of the 2012 tour.

I'm glad someone else noticed the similarity.

Sorry to hear about your personal issues. I'm getting a strong 3am vibe from these. More Sister Lovers than El Goodo from where I'm sitting. Not that they aren't altogether goodo, sir.

I enjoyed them very much.

Hope situations improve soon. All is not lost.

Great news. If you liked it then I have reached my "one person" I was hoping for. I'm happy with that!

Thanks again, JK

Wow. Thanks again for the kind words. Glad you like it so far.

Yes, all of the lyrics can be found on the individual Soundcloud tracks.

Any links anywhere else are, of course, very much appreciated. I lurk on Hoffman too, from time to time, but I don't have a profile myself.

Thanks for that, JK.

It would be great if they did. I hope you like some of it yourself.

Greetings from Scotland,

I've lurked on this board for a number of years now and rarely ever post for fear of offending or making an idiot of myself so here goes...

I finished a record recently which took me quite a while to make because I'm incredibly lazy and incredibly slow and I'm never happy. Nor will you be. I have no social media presence which has made the job of self-promoting pretty much a non-starter.

To cut to the chase, a lot of the ideas in the songs (and the album title...) came, quite evidently, from my love of The Beach Boys (other artists were ripped off in the making of this record too!) so I thought if any one person might be interested in this record it might be a person on this board.

Anyway here it is: https://soundcloud.com/thevidiprinter/sets/a-teenage-symphony-to-pob

Enjoy perhaps.

yeah that's undeniably weird, but I noticed something about the song selection

and that is that it's close to just one song from each BB album up through Friends

Good eye! Poor wee Summer Days (And Summer Nights!!)

Some of those comps look like the result of someone pulling song titles out of a hat - random to say the least.
But isn't the point of compilation to be random song collection? Why people expect famous song titles, nice sequencing/ segue, things like this when discussing comps? The random, the better.

Always thought this one was weird...

My girlfriend has one of those Tyvek jackets. Different design to those above and it is THE BEES KNEES!

Really enjoyed that. Flowed really well. Good Job!

Thanks for sharing.
