For me this album  is fraught with tracks which bear little resemblance to THE BEACH BOYS and far too much much resemblance to Culture Club. My least favorite Beach Boys album.

Quote
The Beach Boys is the self-titled twenty-fifth studio album by American rock band The Beach Boys, released on June 10, 1985. Produced by Steve Levine, the album is the band's first to be recorded after the death of founding member Dennis Wilson. It was also the first of the band's albums to be recorded digitally and released on CD. It's also the last album released by James William Guercio's Caribou Records.

For the album, the band hired Culture Club producer Steve Levine, who took them into the world of drum machines, synthesizers, sampling, and hi-tech recording technology. Brian Wilson, Carl Wilson, Mike Love, Bruce Johnston and Al Jardine all took an active role in the project, writing several new songs for it, with Stevie Wonder and Culture Club each donating a song. The album was recorded during summer 1984 at Red Bus studio in London, and Westlake Audio in Los Angeles during late 1984/early 1985. It features Motown artist Stevie Wonder on harmonica and keyboards on the song "I Do Love You", which he also wrote. Ringo Starr also appears on the track "California Calling" (Starr also appeared live with The Beach Boys in 1985 during the 4th of July concert in Washington D.C.). Noted guitarist Gary Moore features on all tracks playing both guitar and synthaxe.

Although "Getcha Back" (composed by Love and his new musical partner, former Byrds producer Terry Melcher), was a top 30 hit, the album only reached #52 in the U.S. (making it their highest charting album since the release of 1976's album 15 Big Ones). After the album, CBS Records let the band's contract expire, leaving them without a record deal for the first time in years.

Brian Wilson contributed a song written in 1982 by himself and Dennis Wilson called "Oh Lord", but the song did not make the final cut. Also cut from the album was a cover of "At the Hop" with lead vocals by Mike Love.

It's Getting Late... far too late. (5)

Getcha Back got back on the loosers list. (9)

Amazing how much the vote counts changed in the re-do, but I can't say I'm disappointed with the result. Cool Guy

It'll be very hard for me to be voting from the next Survivors onwards for the next 3 weeks.

But I plan on trying to vote on every round in any case.

Let's see how I did with the predictions I made back in the "All Summer Long" heat. Right guesses in green, wrong ones in red.

I get around
Don't worry baby
Little Saint Nick
Please let me wonder

Let him run wild
Devoted to you

God only knows
Good vibrations
Darlin'
Friends
Cabinessence
All I wanna do

'Til I die
All this is that

Sail on, sailor
It's OK
The night was so young

My Diane
Baby Blue
Goin' On
Where I belong

Oh well.

Well, when Getcha Hungry Heart won I got 11 wrong and 10 right. Now Where I Belong has won instead I got 11 right and 10 wrong. So the redo caused by Gertie's befuddled tactical voting worked out well for me.

"Terry Melcher is turning in his grave" are the words I think you're groping for.
