Just curious, based on the article in the recent ESQ (which I have not read, apologies) is there any indication that "I Just Wasn't Made For These Times" might get a release on Blu-ray?

I bet John has most of it as well.  Best send it down Melbourne way where it can be best appreciated; our local stocks of Surf City Allstars souvenirs is critically low.

Actually, David, keep me in the draw & when I win this bounty, I'll make up the difference on the postage!

In fact (forgetting any of the autographs and T-shirts, which don't move me anyway) I don't have any of the following:

• The Bamboo Trading Company CD - autographed by Matthew A. Jardine, Gary Griffin, Randell Kirsch, Philip Bardowell, Chris English Pittman and Miami Dan Miami Dan & the Hayes Street Band) + special guests Dean Torrence, David Marks & Probyn Gregory
• SOUND EXPLOSION! – Inside L.A.’s Studio Factory With The Wrecking Crew Book
• DRIFTING SAND – Summer Splash CD Drifting Sand
• Chris Farmer - “Born On Christmas day” CD single

I'd quite like that Wrecking Crew book, for the pictures…

I just noticed that ESQ Facebook just added several more giveaways in addition to the BIG one they were already having. For me a subscription was already a non brainer as I love every issue especially the recent ones and now any subscription has us in the drawing for these many prizes, no entry needed just have a subscription and were automatically entered!

We want to spread out the giveaways so that more people win.  For that reason, we're creating smaller PRIZE PACKAGES.

David - finally found some time to get through the Fall 2015 edition of ESQ.  I hope you found it as rewarding to put together as it was to read.

I consider myself an ESQ newb having only subscribed since 2012, but this and the previous 2 editions have been really solid reads packed with great info, topped with a slow burn preview of c-man's highly anticipated sessionography.

What was it like to have Al Jardine confess he may be ready to change out of his long term Big Sur residency to explore much more?  And thanks for asking Al about Postcards - it's great to hear Al recorded that gem on an analogue console: here's to hoping we get to hold/hear a vinyl edition some day.

Al's comments, the additional info you managed to get from Matt and Blondie about NPP; Don Was's insights into IJWMFTT doco and beyond - pure gold!

Peter Reum always blows me away with his insightful and heartfelt words with the requisite gravitas to appropriately frame and discuss a(nother) difficult time in Brian's past.

Best wishes for the next edition, I can't wait - cheers - A

Seems to me, each issue of ESQ is better then the one before which is amazing considering there is a limited amount of new music coming from the boys in recent decades. My favorite issues are the ones that break down and dissect albums and give history and back ground stories to each track. It make old songs sound and feel fresh after learning new info about them. The only thing I wish ESQ would do different is I wish they had at least one page dedicated to collectors,maybe highlighting at least one super rare or super unique Beach Boy / Jan Dean collectible and encourage readers to send in a pic of their special piece. If you haven't heard already ESQ is giving away a ton of their beach Boy collectibles. NO ENTRY required! Just be a subscriber, if your already subscribed then your already entered. here is some of the goodies they are giving away:

The Winter 2015 edition of Endless Summer Quarterly was mailed on Monday, December 14.  Has anyone received it?

Thoughts?

Got mine on Saturday. Great, great piece on the Paley sessions! Such an awesome read and insightful. Thanks to all who make ESQ what it is. Also, interesting list of recordings by BW at Gary Griffin's studio!

Spoke with Andy Paley, and we're going to be continuing the discussion on the work he did with Brian in the past in upcoming editions of ESQ in 2016.  Andy is still uncovering previously unnamed and unreleased demos.  

Alan Boyd sent a nice note that he had to read the Winter 2015 front to back as soon as it arrived.  

Speaking for Lee, and our assistant editors -- Keith Devoe and Ron Kohl -- we would like wish everyone a happy holiday!

More ESQ prize packages are coming soon!

Received mine yesterday (UK) and have devoured the Andy Paley interview - fascinating stuff and fine detail considering Andy warned David that it might be otherwise!  Look forward to the renewed conversation, David.

Lee's analysis of the new SACDs is excellent and I see has helped inspire more discussion of the recent Analogue LPs elsewhere on this board.

Terrific issue, hearty thanks, one and all!

If you have personal knowledge of a third-party solution/service that will allow secure, subscriber-only magazine downloads that can't be forwarded or copied, but doesn't cost the publisher an arm and a leg, feel free to PM me.  I'm all ears (or eyes in this case).

Call me old fashioned, but I still enjoy having hard copy in hand. There is nothing quite like the printed page. Cheers to your latest issue.

i don't think we would ever do away with the printed edition.  It's true we would save some costs of printing and postage if current subscribers opted for a digital subscription, but a good portion of our expenses are fixed regardless of whether we print 100 copies or 1,000 copies.  The value proposition is how many subscribers would we gain by a digital edition, what price could we set, and what is the cost of a third party service to host the issues, provide an eCommerce front-end website to purchase the digital subscriptions and individual issues, and provide a secure method of delivery.  They would have to support Microsoft devices, Apple devices, Kindles, Androids, etc.

Even if a digital option was available to the fans for a fraction of the price, I would still stick with the print edition. I like something that I can look back at in future years and not have to turn on a device to read.
