In The Key Of Disney

To each his own, I guess. I think his voice sounds spectacular - and at his age, what we hear is nothing to sniff at.

Well, if you take age in to consideration, I would still say that Al sounds better, PMC sounds better, Ray Davies sounds better, etc, etc

They autotune Macca too - try listening to Good Evening NYC sometime.

It seems a significant oversight by Brian and everyone running his life for him that he should have two albums ready for release virtually simultaneously. If he was Radiohead of something then it might not make any difference as wealthy middle-classfans would just happily buy both.

I don't know what world you live in, but in my world, it's not that big of a deal to buy two albums, within the same month.  Sorry.  It's just not.

Good for you, Ron.

Personally, every few weeks once the food supply & money supply runs very low, I end up getting by on a few slices of bread per day and feeling like there's a void in my stomach from the hunger. Purchasing the expensive Smile Sessions set and this new Disney album is not even worth thinking about at the moment. The only way I'll ever afford the former is if someone gives me $200 free, otherwise it would take a while to save up that much and not need to use it on more practical things.

Send all your canned goods to my house, please.

I am sure they do, but I guess i just think Macca sounds better, age considering.

Amen, ghost. The closer it gets to the end of the year the more likely I'll be getting it  as a birthday or christmas present, but if not I'm buying this boxset against my better judgement....

The album's artwork is now up at Twitter:

...and there goes any hard-won maturity of the Gershwin cover, I guess!

Oh................dear..................Then again, I never thought much of TLOS cover and look what we got inside of that!

[hypehat]

My actual reaction was a minute or so of stunned silence followed by..... "Oh wow".

That is crap. I might not even buy that on vinyl, you can hide a cd's artwork better.

Brian Wilson Drives Insane

Left rear hubcap's lookin' a bit scary.

Well, the hub on the spare is looking quite happy!!

[Andrew G. Doe]

I like it - could have been a LOT worse. BW surrounded by a bunch of Disney characters ?

[rab2591]

What about the angry face on the left rear bumper?...complete with the hamburger helper oven mit.

Besides the creepy faces peppered througout the cover, I really like the design.

Edit: granted, the font used for the name 'Brian Wilson' makes this album seem very country western...

[puni puni]

I didn't think it was that bad until the font hit me

Yeah, I feel for you. There you are, spending 90% of your time posting your messages on this board from the library so you can save up the money that your mom and dad are giving you to buy food for the household: 

Well, before she mentioned her age I was having difficulty determining it. I don't get hung up on the numbers. I'm only 16 myself anyway.

That would of been just plain weird. BW ,the adult/child surrounded by disney characters.

[The Shift]

Careful bgas, ghost might not really be 16. He might be grooming you… standby for an invite to a one-on-one SMiLE listening party any day now!

...while sporting his trademark "deer in the headlights" facial expression of course.

Hee heeeeeeee!   

[Shady]

I'm split on the artwork..

None the less I'm excited for this album

[Wrightfan]

I LOVE that cover. Makes much more sense then the Gershwin one imo.

[Alex]

I don't think I'm gonna get this one. BWRG was a little too on the corny side for me... Bring back the mini Moogs, hoarse vocals, and crude drumming!
