Such a classy mag was TeenSet at the outset; too bad they reduced their BBs content as the issues went by.  
Showing the cover and title page, cuz they have more pics not in the article. And just think! $5 for one free album when they were selling at the store for $3-4...

I liked the author's descriptive writing style. The article went interesting, lots of never-read-befores. Some of my favorites:

Quote
He threw an order for chop suey but looked hungrily at the piano. ... unable to wait longer, he edged the piano player off the stool and started whomping the keys in a creative frenzy. The piano player yanked the stool away. Brian continued to bang the piano sitting on the floor. ... a bruiser-bouncer with Samson muscles & Frankenstein eyebrows broke his trance by slamming down the keyboard cover. Brian darted out into the street, whistled up a Danish cab and raced back to the Royal hotel.

Quote
He conceived a sudden mad passion for a huge golden goddess statue in the courtyard of the Palais de Challion. Vowing to steal a kiss, he leaped to the edge of a water-filled moat. ... climbed a three-tiered fountain, hauled himself up a 10-foot column to reach his love goddess & began kissing her cool smiling metallic mouth. Quick-thinking Al Jardine yelled, "Cheese it! The cops!" That brought Brian down quick.

The latter is beyond insane, though. If it weren't for Brian, I'd be scared of anyone acting in public as such.

Thanks for posting that story. I've always loved that tale of Brian kissing the stature. And Earl Leaf really nailed Carl's personality.
