I'm gonna mention this on our next Sail On Podcast.  I'd be really interested to get this released.

Hello friends,

Here's our latest words and music tribute.  This time we honor the great Bruce Johnston.  Hope you guys dig it!

It's a great time to be a Beach Boys fan.

So.  Pumped.

Thanks for all the responses, guys.  We just had our one year mark and also just passed 30 thousand downloads.  Crazy. 

We also just got added to Spotify.  https://open.spotify.com/show/0FuLZbVheuRRSdZCXXvpq8?si=YHaL-FZPTqi7ZvRGW0wMfQ&fbclid=IwAR3WSJY51i1oVpqpL1Y79SiYWe0WvnMX-XD13Ue-Na56sY4CQ9uuHMsCRNs

Sail On, Sailors.

You are a treasure, Mr. Desper.  I'm glad to know you.

Hello friends,

Our latest Sail On podcast is a tribute to Al Jardine which I think many of you will enjoy.  I compiled sound bytes and tons of BB songs (written and/or sung by AL) and there are a couple of very rare interviews/tracks included.

I'd like to do more of these if the response is positive. 

Our next episode is going to be about the movie and subsequent soundtrack of Muscle Beach Party!  Thanks for listening.

YESSSSSSSSS THANKS STEVE!  Hope to see you again soon!

Bumping this to say we have several new episodes out since I last checked on this thread.

Ooooh! Tyler, Texas in July!!

Yessir, let's hang!

Have found myself checking the ol' podcast for the latest ep since Sunday night. Refresh... refresh... refresh...

We had to skip a week because we were on tour but we recorded a new one tonight and I'll have it up on Monday!  Sorry for the delay and thanks for listening.

Hey, just started listening to this (late in the game), but I’m really impressed with the quality of everything - between the talk/jokes, to the production (also, Will C’s music is great in this).

I’m kinda honored that Niko and I’s ‘Rhapsody in Blue’ edit is the intro for this - at least that’s based on my lousy memory, but I recall the radio dial edit and slowing down my Rhapsody copy way down to match Brian’s reimagined version.

Anyways, all that aside, really great stuff here and I can’t wait to keep listening to more episodes! Such discussion reminds me of my early days in the fandom, it’s great to listen to people so excited about this music, makes me want to go listen to some records.

Thanks very much! 

New episode all about David Marks is up now!

Christmas special up now!  Happy Holidays to everyone!

I have really enjoyed the Gary Usher and Roger Christian episodes! I have learned new things about the roots of surf and car music and how important these guys were to that genre! I also enjoy the conspiracy theories. I am one entertained by the Paul is Dead clues. I didn’t know there were interesting theories about The Beach Boys! I’m excited to hear more! Certainly there are some about Charles Manson or Eugene Landy!

Haha, thanks!  I don't think there are any Beach Boys Conspiracies at the level of Paul Is Dead but we're gonna make sure we ask all the right questions!!!

We recently covered this album on our podcast!  Check it out!

I've enjoyed the episodes thus far and look forward to more.  It's great to finally have a Beach Boys podcast out there!   

Not to nitpick, but there are several fan podcasts and podcast-ish productions out there, but most of them are really subpar or not widely accessible.  There's a gawd-awful video podcast that some lady shoots in her living room. Pray for Surf(?) is pretty good, but I couldn't find it on iTunes the last time I checked. Ghosty's show is great, but YouTube isn't exactly the best delivery method for that type of content.  Not sure about this podbean thing for Sail On (I think it's a crappy app), but I can get it on Apple's Podcast app, so I'm good.  Sail On is the first good BB fan podcast that's also accessible. And I love it.

Yeah we know there are some other programs out there and we enjoy them for what they are but we wanted to do something new.  Glad you're enjoying it!

I've enjoyed the episodes thus far and look forward to more.  It's great to finally have a Beach Boys podcast out there!   

Thanks so much!  New episodes every Monday! 

Great idea incorporating the voicemails! I'm just a few minutes into the third episode, but just wanted to encourage others to check out the podcast if they haven't yet.

Yeah, thanks!  I wasn't sure how that would work out but I think we'll do it every couple episodes or so.

New episode up now!  Covering the first recordings and performances of the Beach Boys in 1961-1962.

I loooooved listening to this.   I agreed with so many of the things you said, too, from the "All Beach Boys all the time" sentiment to your views on many of the records.  I too would rank In Concert among my favorites.  In fact, it would be my desert island BB disc if I had to pick.  It just has everything I need on it, from the amazing 70s stuff to cool versions of the early hits to GV and Caroline, No.

Also, so pleased to hear someone mention Our Car Club.  One of my favorites, which doesn't get enough love in my view.  

I really really look forward to more of the podcasts.  

By the way, I really like what I've heard of the Explorers Club, but have had difficulty finding your records even in some of the best record stores.  Love the cover of Freedom Wind - am I correct in thinking it's an homage to All Summer Long?  

Thanks!

And yes, the first EC album cover is inspired by All Sunmer Long!  Our newest record is an homage to Friends!

Thanks so much, guys!

Excited to get some feedback!

What I don't get-- and what I hope you will explain in later episodes-- is how exactly the album is genius. I find nothing about the album genius. Musically, instrumentally, lyrically.  Nothing. Please help me out here!

To be honest, I don't consider the album "genius" nor do I think it is one of the best Beach Boys albums.  It's simply one of my personal favorites.  The emotion and story behind the songs is what makes it so important to me.  I know it's not for everyone!  I didn't care for it for many years. 

Thanks guys!  New episodes every Monday! 

Hey y'all!

Jason Brewer and I are starting a Beach Boys podcast in conjunction with our tribute band SAIL ON. Been preparing for this for many years now and I'm super excited to finally get this rolling!

In the first episode we discuss what brought us this far down the Beach Boys rabbit hole, list our top ten albums, and lay out what we hope to accomplish with the show.
Thanks for listening!  Hope you guys can help us grow into something special.
