You're getting your songs confused - there are several re-recorded First Love songs on MLNW, but "Cool Head..." isn't one of them. It's a relatively new composition, and the only version I'm aware of is the finished one we all know.
Thanks for the clarification, Andrew!

I love that song!, I think it'd still be a very radio friendly track too

[EDIT]
Actually, if Mike is going to be looking at that album for material, I'd love to hear what they could do with "Pisces Brothers"

Some call it cheesy, and I can see their point, but I really like this track. I'm not sure it belongs on the new BB album though, because that'd be yet another BB-Beatles link, and we don't need that.

Mike's still-unreleased recent solo effort had quite a few good tunes.

I think Mike's last unreleased album did have a few really nice tunes, but if I'm given the choice of either having a Mike Love composition or an unheard Brian Wilson composition, I'm gonna go with Brian's. Even though some of the songs from Mike's latest work were pretty good, I think the only that is truly Beach Boys worthy is "Cool Head". The others are good within a Mike Love solo project, but I think the standard for material should be a bit higher than that for this Beach Boys album. Maybe it'll come to be known that Mike's stuff was better than the stuff that they came up with for the new album, but I doubt it.

if we're talking 80's sound and solo Mike Love tracks... i think they should bust out a cover of "Rockin' the Man in the Boat"

What's D'Amico gonna do. His initial responsibility in Brian's band was a percussionist, then Nelson took over after Mike left. Then he got back in the band and became the drummer after Sucherman and Hines left. He's another multi-talented guy, though, and can play guitar, keys, and bass when called upon.

But The Boys already have a drummer and 1/2 in Cowsill and Stamos and about 5 guitarists, two keyboardists, and a bass player.  Man, if D'Amico joins too, that stage is really gonna be full!

I seriously doubt Stamos will feature on any more than a very few US shows: remember how he announced he was taking part than swiftly retracted it a few days later ? Personally speaking, one would be far too many.

Daybreak is absolutely worthy of revisiting. Remarkably dumb of the band not to have done so already.

Yeah, that song came to my mind as well.
I also love "I don't wanna know" (the original from the 70s is also great). Imo one of Mike's best songs ever. But it wouldn't fit on a Beach Boys album imo unless it's a Wild Honey-style record

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

This is getting rather far afield.. I hate to seem so pedantic, but may we have  more scholarly, focused discussions with real information according to the rubric of this topic? Perhaps I do not understand the genre of a message board, but I want concrete information and  learned speculation.  The Lindsay info is usefully, but much else is off topic over the past several days. Perhaps it is simply the product of our collective frustration and anticipation over this new album?

So, Bruce was a guest at Mike's b-day party in Mexico, huh? I guess those two are real buddies then.
