Thrilled that it's BW album with Al and David plus Brian's other guests. Equally as pleased that mYke and brOOth will be outside looking in.

I'm depressed.... I realize there was very little chance of this being a BB record, but I hoping against hope especially with the photos that emerged of Mike working in the same studio just a few days ago.... I'm a Beach Boys fan, not a Brianista, what can I say? Seriously bummed.... MIC better still be coming out... that's a threat Capitol!!!

nah... Beach Boys for me, please. Not interested in anything else.
Well, that's not quite true. But that's how I feel at the moment anyway. Wah.
By the way, for the record, I recognize that it is likely that Mike is mostly to blame for the BB record not happening, and I certainly don't blame Brian for carrying on and am glad that people are excited, but for some of us, it's just another depressing reminder that the 50th anniversary was a one and done deal.

Interesting that there's no indication of who, if anybody, Brian's working with on the production side of things. Yeah, Don Was is mentioned, but from the reference it seems he's more a guest than a production presence.
So I assume that means no Joe Thomas. What does that say about our chances of seeing the remainder of "Life's Suite" in the near future? Are we going to have wait until the next Beach Boys reunion?

The original press release at brianwilson.com/news says "Installed at Ocean Way, Wilson and his hand-picked band of friends have taken a fluid, woodshedding approach to the recording process, letting collaborative creativity drive the sessions. Wilson is working with longtime collaborator Joe Thomas to hone the arrangements, often assembling pieces from various takes. Details about the album and its release will be shared soon."

Consider me just a fan of fine melodies and chords: I'm pumped for this!
I'll be missing the voices of Mike and Bruce, especially Bruce, but that doesn't really spoil this for me. Brian's tunes for this project have received heavy praise from multiple sources - I can't wait to hear them!

Brian Wilson is recording a new album with two original Beach Boys guesting, how can that possibly be depressing news for a Beach Boys fan? If given the choice I would also prefer another Beach Boys album, but if we can't have one, I'd say that this is the best possible alternative.

So Dave, are you still saying we "can count on" that new Beach Boys album in 2013?? Excited about the Brian album, although I'd rather it be a BB album. But why do our boys always feel they have to include enough guest stars to fill an episode of the Love Boat?

Also we most likely will get another BB's album and tour it was just never going to happen a year after the last one.

Although just above me Shady makes a good point as well. While part of me understands Mike Love's position and what he wants to do with his life and his career, there is still a part of me that cannot reconcile as a working professional musician why he would not want The Beach Boys to be the beneficiary of all this renewed sense of prolific creativity on the part of his cuzzz. One would think Mike would want to capitalize on that but I guess his plan is his plan.
Edit
: As for how Brian Wilson recording a new record with two guesting Beach Boys could be depressing to a Beach Boys fan? Let me offer you this alternate universe scenario: The Beatles get back together circa mid 80s and record an album that is critically well received and backed by a successful tour. The following year John Lennon begins work on a solo album, invites George Harrison and Ringo Starr along but not Paul McCartney. I guarantee you Beatles fans would've been bummed about that too.

I agree. The Beach Boys didn't appear on my radar until 2003 and back then I was pretty sure that I'd missed everything. But it's been surprise after suprise ever since. BWPS, TLOS, Brian's other albums, Al's album, TSS box set, TWGMTR, the reunion tour... Each of these things were a big bonus to me. So at this point, they can release 'Stars & Stripes Vol. 2', 'The Going Public Sessions' or 'Summer In Paradise... Naked' and I'll get it.

Something I just thought of... Regardless of how cool Dennis, Carl and Mike are or where, Brian was kind of stuck with them for the simple reason that they were his family. And Bruce, Ricky and Blondie were professionals who were considered right for the job at the time. Al and David were the only ones who became Beach Boys on the basis of friendship. So in that way, it's pretty cool that they are the guys that Brian ends up working with now, 52 years down the road.

recall that Mike said he was not allowed to be alone with Brian to write. Why in hell would he want to submit to that sort of control. I am sad, but I do not blame Mike, whose heart has been open. Sad sad sad. I am "BB only," please. But I'll get it to hear the Al and Dave parts if Jeff does not quadruple track them out of existence.

I'm cautiously optimistic about this. I'm always going to get pumped about brand new Brian Wilson songs, and I'm really interested to see what this turns out like with super talented Jeff Beck. The caution comes in with Joe Thomas and what this thing might sound like. I'm hoping for the best, because this could nd great, but the realist in me is tempering my expectations. We might finally be getting Pleasure Island, or we could be getting Imagination with better guitar solos.

It'd be interesting to know if this is what a Beach Boys album would've sounded like (since Brian said he wanted to record with them again) or if these songs were never considered anything else but Brian solo stuff. Thomas made it clear that from the '98 sessions Brian had exact plans for what would be solo and what would be Beach Boys songs.
Anyway, I hope that Brian doesn' feel bad when this album won't be a big seller (which wil probably be the case). I'm very happy that the success of the Beach Boys tour and album gave him new creativity but don't want him to get bummed out.

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'm just being Donnie Downer right now - I'll keep crossing my fingers and hope it still happens - maybe next year. I think it's cool that Al and David are on Brian's new record, but it's just not the news I most wanted to hear. Again, wah.
