Even though OCA isn't that good of an album, Brian and Van Dyke doing it on IJWMFTT is beautiful. They should've just done it like that.

Agreed, that's lovely. Would be fantastic to hear them patch things up and do that live once. Just once, so I can experience yogic levitation. Wouldn't that be a nice surprise towards the end at the Greek? Would really be somethin' special.
Then they can go back to being estranged and VDP can join "Mike Love Presents SMiLE" in an epic tour of county fairs and high school gyms where finally the mystery of the uncovered cornfield will be revealed. The answer MAY surprise you.

That may actually be a good idea for Mike to do! Seriously! I may actually start a thread about the idea!

Unpopular Opinions: I thoroughly enjoy M.I.U Album and all of Sweet Insanity. I think the early BB albums (Surfin' Safari up to Summer Days [and Summer Nights]) are inessential at best (aside from a few standouts like Surfer Girl, Don't Worry Baby, California Girls, Let Him Run Wild, etc.).

I happen to really love MIU, apart from Winds of Change. The Kermit the Frog voice from Al really drags it down for me.
Onter-> that's awesome!

Agreed.
Here's one that I don't think has been mentioned. While I don't listen to it often, The Beach Boys Party is a darn fun album to listen to.

Dumb question, who are these three principle members? Can someone clear this up for me?

Brian, Michael, and Al. Carl's estate is the fourth. Dennis' estate sold his vote back to pay off debts. Bruce (I think) was a member at one point.

I agree. At first, however, David Leaf's liner notes for the twofer release made me feel bad about even having bought it, so it took me a while to fully appreciate its brilliance.

Okay, so more than Smile is a bit of a stretch, but I'm entitled to say agree with the sentiment that it's a work of genius, right?
Here's the funny part...back when I first got SS, almost 20 years ago, I was 2 years away from getting high for the first time. And THAT's the album that made me a fan.
Life's funny, eh?

But Billy, put yourself in my place back in 66-67 if you can for a moment. It was a Beach Boys high like no other. Your favorite band was at it's most famous peak with Pet Sounds with all it's singles all over the radio, Good Vibrations is everywhere, Brian is a rock and roll god and can do no wrong. There is talk although sparse of something big as a follow up coming down the pike, then H&V is on the radio and you say "not bad at all but not GV but can't wait to hear the rest of the new stuff and SS is released, it's taken home, put it on the turntable and you feel like a pile of homemade sh*t after one spin.

Oh yeah, no doubt. That's what blows my mind . Of all albums. that was the one the grabbed me first. I can't imagine what my reaction would be if I had heard Pet Sounds first.

Smiley Smile is every bit as good a listening experience as The Smile Sessions is, although not nearly as good as the 30 some-odd years of fans trying to create their own coherent versions of Smile.

Yeah, but it isn't 1967 anymore. We can enjoy it for what it is now.
