That sounds amazing!
602  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / MIU Vocals on: October 08, 2016, 06:49:27 AM
So I know that Carl and Dennis make few appearances on MIU, so were all the vocals supplied by Brian, Al, and Mike or where there other vocalists?

Boring? I'll take any new music from Brian!

This Night Of The Proms clip is great! Bruce's range is still very impressive.

I've had so many BW/BBs dreams...

Also--- I feel the need to put this new emoticon to use. 
607  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: Surf's Up released 45 Years Ago Today... on: August 30, 2016, 06:39:54 PM
I used to think that Surf's Up had some god awful tracks that were almost insulting. "Take A Load Off Your Feet" and "Student Demonstration Time" come to mind... But eventually I realized, I was being too serious. "Feet" is hilarious, and the sound effects are quite inventive, and "Student Demonstration Time" actually rocks for a BBs song, and I'm actually a fan of Mike's vocals in that song.

Overall, I think Surf's Up isn't as good as Sunflower, but I think it's still  a great album. I'm a producer, myself, and think that Sunflower has such a rich, lush sound that is almost hard to describe, and Surf's Up sounds a little bare, in comparison.

I'm getting sidetracked... I love the Surf's Up album, and can't believe its 45 years old!

That is such a weird track listing...
609  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: Best Beach Boys songwriter on: August 13, 2016, 09:23:33 PM
I gotta go with Tony Asher...

I was going to say Van Dyke Parks, but then I thought of "God Only Knows" and realized I had to go with Tony.

Baby Blue, when Dennis starts singing.

So David says he doesn't sing on the album but...

613  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Do you ever get sick of The Beach Boys? on: July 14, 2016, 09:03:27 PM
Obviously, this board draws only die-hard fans, for the most part, but do you ever get sick of listening to The Beach Boys?


I know I don't...

Who says "Not for us now!" in All Summer Long?
615  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: Liner notes on 50th Pet Sounds Boxset on: June 25, 2016, 07:14:26 AM

You are correct - that was me. And I stand by that. On the basic track session tape, Carl mentions that he'll be overdubbing another part - the 12-string - so we know that was not a WC player. And the bass was added on the same track as the 12-string...then doubled (actually, one bass sounds like a Fender, the other a Dano). Whoever's playing is using their thumb on the Fender, and while the Dano part sounds like it's played with a pick, I've been told (by Bruce, no less) that Brian would sometimes play bass with his thumbnail. The bass playing on those two parts is just uneven enough (in a totally cool and endearing way) to convince me it's not a studio "pro". The only reason those parts were ever credited to Glen Campbell and Carol Kaye in the first place is because of Carol's assertion/assumption 30 years after the fact that it was them (for which I don't blame her, as who could possibly remember every single album track session three decades down the line, especially considering how many sessions she played in the '60s).

That's really interesting! Thanks!

They say that Brian Wilson played bass on That's Not Me. I've never heard this before.
617  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: Brian in the late '70s -early '80s. on: June 17, 2016, 08:25:06 AM
When Brian played bass in the late 70's was he THE bassist for the band? (No backing member playing the actual bass parts while Brian more or less mimes--- C50)
618  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: What's the most obscure BB song that could get prominent soundtrack placement? on: June 14, 2016, 06:24:21 PM
Life Is For The Living in a commercial for a gym or protein shake or something like that!!
619  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / BBs band through the years on: June 13, 2016, 07:27:10 AM
Is there a definitive list for who played in the Beach Boys live band through the years? Both band members themselves, and backup players?

Why does Bruce cover the logo on his keyboard?

621  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: What did Bruce and Jack disagree over? on: June 06, 2016, 08:09:05 AM

Where can Bruce be heard on the Holland album?

He is singing on California Saga
622  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: CONCERT: National Memorial Day Concert for 2016 with The Beach Boys on: May 31, 2016, 06:04:01 PM
There is obviously autotune. Can't you hear the robotic-quality that on Jeff and Mike's vocals. Also, Bruce is damn near inaudible. Noticeable on the "I wish they all could be California Girls"
623  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: CONCERT: National Memorial Day Concert for 2016 with The Beach Boys on: May 31, 2016, 07:29:07 AM
I can't tell if they're lipsyncing or not, but they are definitely autotuned.
624  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: BBs headlining Memorial Day concert in DC on: May 30, 2016, 06:39:48 AM
I watched it last night, and it was fun. The vocals were heavily autotuned, but it was great nonetheless.

Hey, this is kinda nice--- the BBs are getting a lot of attention today!
