Recently a guitar pick of Carl's with the words Clem "Howdy" Wilson stamped on it was posted on eBay. Was Clem Carl's nickname in the group and did he have a tendency to greet people by saying, "Howdy"? I seem to recall someone (Brian?) shouting, "No Clem, no!" during Our Favorite Recording Sessions.

That's interesting, I always wondered who "Clem" was from OFRS. I never would've dreamed it could be Carl. If that's right you may have solved one of the many unanswered questions in my mind, so thank you. (I know, I know I totally need to get a life, lol)

and wasn't that specific part (woodshop session incl. the -"No, Clem, No !!" remark) used in the fade-out of Do It Again?

Rule of thumb, think BEFORE you post. And THINK how it may affect someone else's feelings.

Check out the Beach Boys Starline website, the place for pictures of many countries Beach Boys releases on 45.

Listening to you I get the music; Gazing at you I get the heat; Following you I climb the mountain; I get excitement at your feet
Right behind you I see the millions; On you I see the glory; From you I get opinions; From you I get the story

Glad to be of service. You don't need to get a life, everyone has a hobby and ours just happens to revolve around Beach Boys minutiae!

In the booklet accompanying the Australian 4 CD release of The Capitol Years, Peter Reum suggests that Brian shouts "No Clem, no!" during the woodshop coda as a reference to Mike Love's nickname.

Also, doesn't Carl say "Hey howdy howdy", or something like that, on one of those radio Luxembourg segments? And I thought the 'No, Clem, no" line was from OFRS right before Mike says "By cracky, you put a little finger poppin' on that, there'll be a million and two sold"
