I remember Mike was asked about this on a phone in a few years ago...

He mentioned enjoying working with Curt Boettcher but bemoaned the fact that the record company went bust and couldn`t promote or ship the album or something.

Mike didn`t seem too thrilled to be asked about it though and I would say that generally speaking Mike is only really into talking about the hit songs and TM songs. I doubt he cares about LBWL now...

This is about the only post here I can make heads or tails of, not knowing who Nardwuar (?) is or was.

From stories I've heard from those who were there at the time, "Runnin' Around the World" was released to an Arbitron-type music research company prior to the release of the album and scored high enough to where it was thought that it had a shot as a hit single. Trouble ensued when musicians involved in the making of the record may or may not have been paid, and a certain producer stepped up and withheld the tapes until said musicians got what was coming to them.

I doubt very highly Mike would have anything to say about Looking Back with Love at this late date, and I think the closest we'll get to seeing First Love released in any form would be "Daybreak" finding its way onto the last Beach Boys record.
