Paisley seems like a Brian Wilson thing.  I'm pretty sure he was wearing a paisley shirt at a book-signing in San Francisco in the early '90s (along with acid-washed jeans, which were the height of fashion back then).  He also wore a lot of those types of patterns during the "Smile" era. Perhaps their costume designer chose a paisley print  in honor of the "Smile" boxed set.  Though he/she could have chosen one more tasteful and less hideous.

The shirts are most likely a BBs in-joke. It fits the guys' sense of humour to a tee (pun intended).

I've gotta say, Brian's Vocal on "Summer's Gone", from the preview, may be his best since the 70's

Yeah, I really think that, as somebody else said recently, he just sounds like an older Brian Wilson, instead of a Brian Wilson who ruined his voice and stopped singing properly. So basically he sounds like he should sound. Which is awesome.

What a fantastic article posted yesterday.  Very informative concernig the album we are getting, while leaving bits of information that leave me wanting more.

I've now visions of a project where "Wilson's plan was to title the new album Summer's Gone," (a title I was fond of upon first seeing the potential track listing for TWGMTR) "and end the record — the final Beach Boys record — with that ("Summer's Gone") track."  This apparently was the plan before "Wilson had a change of heart."  The article explains "Everybody was getting along so well and the creativeness started flowing again that he (Brian) shelved the idea of this being the last song on the last Beach Boys record," Thomas said. "He was having too good of a time."  I'm really happy to hear this, because I think it's something the 'Boys all deserve, and speaking selfishly, I hope to hear more quality Beach Boys LPs.

Still there's still this lingering notion of an eleven-song suite which explores the theme of Brian "looking at life as an older adult."

I mean, my goodness.  Goosebumps.

It's the kind of theme that my most beloved, John Lennon, was just really beginning to explore more deeply in his own work, before he was cheated out of years and we were robbed of the music.

I hope the band keep making music together for as long as they are happy to do so, but the idea of naming the final Beach Boys album Summer's Gone with the title track serving as the final bow is just such a wondrous thought (reminds me, naturally, of the Beatles' final album released under a moniker which evokes the theme of their studio work, finishing off with "The End").  The absolute icing would've been an album's-length suite of compositions.

I'd love to one day hear the six numbers that constitute the "first half," along with "I'd Go Anywhere."  Things change over time, of course - especially the artists own vision for his work (as I,myself, can attest) - but as long as we're not told that it was just a passing fancy, or "I scrapped it," then maybe (just maybe) Brian will see the whole suite through to completion, released under whichever banner is deemed appropriate, and then we'll have the opportunity to one day piece it all together ourselves.  When it's all said and done, there's a certain charm to that, too.

i think it's cool that if Brian ever finished the suite with the Boys, then "summer's gone" would still be the last beach boys song on the last beach boys album. :D

but i'm not gonna count on it.

I gotta say, I still find unlikely that they will do another album. Maybe it's just because I find it totally incredible that there is actually a new Beach Boys album in 2012, but I just don't know if I can see them doing another one on top of that.

As far as I'm concerned, them giving us SMiLE, That's Why God Made the Radio, a few new songs on the upcoming greatest hits album, and a box set is such a great, unexpected gift. So if they do indeed put out a second album, I'll be ecstatic.

However, it's pretty likely they did work on a few other things during the latest sessions. So you probably got "I'd Go Anywhere" from Brian, "Islands in the Sun" and "Waves of Love" from Al, and "She Believes in Love Again" from Bruce, and I'm sure Brian probably has a few other things he still might wanna use. And of course Mike has a backlog of songs he could use. So maybe it's more possible than I suspect.

Or is this a modern equivalent of the stripy shirts they used to wear in the early '60s? We fans deserve to know!!  Grin

They're probably made by Gibson.

I hope so... the wait is killing me, and of course I already have my copies (plural) preordered.

Re the revolving shirts -- did any of you notice that the paisley shirt Al is wearing is short-sleeved and the one/s Brian, Mike, and Dave are wearing is/are long-sleeved?

The source of the shirts is mentioned in the tour program book: "Wardrobe by Robert Graham."

Can't afford to buy any of those for my hubby, tho....

I'd probably die with a smile and a woody the moment the record hit my hands, having never heard a single note.

After hearing all the parts, "Summer's Gone" is probably the only song i'd say is worthy of ending the Beach Boys Legacy.

lawl, big misinterpretation of what he was saying, not helped by the quote kind of being taken out of context.
