She's Got Rhythm has an awful Brian vocal but compositionally I think it's the most successful new-oldie on the album - when I heard it, I actually thought it was a 50s cover (despite it referencing disco dancing  Grin). I think American Spring could have done a great gender swap of the track, for some reason I can easily hear a Marilyn vocal singing "saw a foxy boy out on the floor".

Found a sealed vinyl copy of this last week so thought Id give it another go. IMO; it really is an album of low-lights even My Diane is just average for me. Anyway Il shut up and take it to the reviews thread  Grin

Welcome back to a new round of BEACH BOYS SURVIVOR. Remember to be respectful of others opinions. Please don't spam the thread with too much opinionating (a little is ok  :D ).... and without further ado...

Quote
"M.I.U. Album is the twenty-second studio album by The Beach Boys, released on October 2, 1978 on Brother/Reprise. Recorded during a fraught time for the band, only Mike Love, Al Jardine, and Brian Wilson appear consistently throughout the album, with Carl and Dennis Wilson audible on only a few tracks. Produced by Al Jardine and songwriter Ron Altbach, the album's title stems from Maharishi International University in Fairfield, Iowa, where the majority of the album was recorded.
Reflecting on the album in 1992, Mike Love noted, "It was too democratic. Everybody coming into it with their song, which is okay. It's like if you have an album and have a hit song on it, and it's very commercially viable. Doesn't it make sense to have another song that would also be commercially viable? And a third and a fourth."

Pitter Patter pitter patters out according to the majority (13)

As usual vote for your least favorite track. The track with the most votes gets voted off.

Tally on April 13th

Sweet Sunday Kinda Love
