Whoa.  If this is a good bio, this will be one fascinating read.  By all accounts, a complex man that few people outside the family really knew intimately (but who was universally loved).

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

Maybe this is some of the "big news coming " that Brian referred to a few weeks ago.

Could be. Since he posted that, we've gotten the official information about the release, formats, and tracklist of the new album most fans have been waiting to hear, we had Brian do a live event on this board and BW.com, and with reports coming in of the film being screened at various festivals in the next few months I'm guessing an official date for a general release will happen as well. And there is also the book for which we're waiting to hear an official release date. And perhaps some tour info as well, I'm hoping for an East Coast jaunt if and when it all comes out.

Album, book, movie - all in the works, one of them confirmed and detailed already. Possibly additional live shows. A bio of Carl is another event coming in 2015 which fans can look forward to, for sure! Definitely big news all around. Good news for fans.  Smiley

9/25/55, Steve.  Close enough to the book release.  Unfortunate that Carl can't contribute to or proofread this book, but I have a feeling it'll be screened pretty good by others before it comes out.

There's another surprise book coming probably this year or next, but I'm under oath not to say anything!

What a nice surprise.  I needed one today.  Ordered it and picked up the complete 4 Seasons AND Byrds albums boxes plus some other odds and ends...Gathering of Flowers-Mamas and Papas, Mark Ronson and a a couple of other cds.  Can't wait to read Carl's biography.  Sure took it's sweet time floating to the surface.  What a day!!!  Shocked

There just isn't enough info on Carl! We even got a book about David Marks before him for crying out loud!

Carl wasn't a really outspoken guy, I doubt there would have been one earlier if he had lived longer.

Very interesting! Will definately pick this up.

Don't know that earlier book either (Surf Beat) - anyone here who has read that one or other books by Crowley? If so, what is your impression of him as a writer?
Haven't read him but found this:

"Kent Crowley writes about music for numerous publications such as Vintage Guitar and Shakin' Fever. He researched Bob Keane's The Oracle of Del-Fi and edited Hollywood's Gold Star Studio founders Stan Ross and Dave Gold's upcoming Gold Star Album. He has consulted on Freak Out in Cucamonga, an upcoming documentary on Frank Zappa's Pal Studios/Studio Z."

Carl was so private that this is kind of a Catch-22 situation... if anyone close to Carl spoke to the biographer, they probably wouldn't have given much away. And if no one spoke to the biographer, what's he really gonna tell us that we can't find from using the search function on this board?

Does anyone really think this is going to be a great biography?

Having said that, i don't know much about Carl's life so it'd be interesting to find out even a little more.

You are. But I think "Oldsurferdude" might be King of Oldfartdom on this board. Or maybe "Add Some". Or maybe "Fillthepage". Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. "Custom Machine" has been around the block a few times. So has "Rn57".
