I think it was called like "Life's Suite". I also think it may have been called "Adult, Child, and Parent" or something.

Wasn't the original, Landy inspired suite on BW88 called The Life Suite?

Yep. It will be fascinating to see if the new suite has links to 80s-era stuff.

But didn't it become "Rio Grande" ?

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.

I think RG was composed separately, at Lenny Waronker's suggestion to do something like H&V.

Something like H&V and not like Life Suite!

No I'm joking. Any song suite from Brian is most welcome at chez Newcombe

I'm pretty glad they aren't using "Waves of Love" or "She Believes In Love Again". I think they would be far more useful as bonus tracks, seeing as how they are already out there in one form or another. But they would be interesting to hear as bonuses. Just not as part of a cohesive album.

Worst case scenario, the bonus tracks could be used to replace some lesser songs on the record in everyone's personalized iTunes playlists.

just went into my local record shop and was advised they will have the new album in the Friday before June 5, whatever date that is.  This means I can listen to all the down on my drive to the Hollywood Bowl on June 2.

Same here, I originally didn't like Rio Grande, but after 3 plays I loved it. Brian is the suite-king, anything he touches turns to amazing.

Just because a store has it in the building does not mean they are allowed to sell it before the street date. There could be punitive action taken by the record company if they became aware of that activity, and most stores aren't willing to risk it. Good for you though, if you have found one that is.

Nah, just a dream Smiley

Same place I found the album for download, BitTorrent.

The "life suite" is amazing, it even gives kudos to Dennis by having 5 whole minutes of audio p*rn with Mike!

"Just" a made-up mock cover reminiscent of Pet Sounds.  Wink

Actual album cover art wouldn't use that photo of the Boys (a photo which has already been released, anyway).

Is the album title officially "That's Why God Made The Radio"?  I read something from Bruce two days ago where he said that title was too long.  He also mentioned he wrote a song for the record but said it may have gotten rejected as the decision wasn't up to him as the record label decided what to include?  WTF?

Since the single on iTunes has the album it's from listed as "That's Why God Made the Radio - single" I imagine they did that to differentiate it from the album.

Looks like Bruce was wrong and they went with TWGMTT title.

He didn't write a song for the record, either. He recorded a new version of "She Believes in Love Again."

Hey Southbay,

Could you kindly tell me (PM) the name of said store?  Thank you kindly!

I never thought it actually existed. The name was out there, but I had always thought it was a Landy fabrication for BW's autobiography after Rio Grande turned out so well.

So who knows?

I was suspecting it was based on his abandoned "Little Prince" suite that he claimed to have written for the Royal Festival Hall ...

I can't possibly read everything so I apologize if anybody else has already said this: I'm seeing a couple places say that the title of the album is going to be "Celebration".

Don't know about that - a good half of those titles reek of nostalgia in the same way "That's Why God Made The Radio" does. We'll see.
