How involved was Brian with these songs, or was it mostly Mike Love?

[kookadams]

Shes got rhythm, pitter patter, oh darlin, some of your love, goin on, sunshine,,?. In otherwords the newly written cuts on MIU and KTSA.

For one who's so hot on calling out recycles, that's a hilarious list.

You forgot Brian and Mike also wrote
"Wontcha Come Out Tonight"
"Sweet Sunday Kinda Love" 
"Belles of Paris" 
"Match Point of Our Love"  for the MIU sessions.

I think they are all retreads....yknow.. none of them rockin...

Who else wuz evn makin real rocknroll records in this era b-sides da RAMONES! They brought back real rocknroll. And now cuz of them we got FALL OUT BOY!!!1111!

Seriously though, kook...is "Surf's Up" not a worthy song because it was a nearly 5 year old song by the time it was released in 1971? Personally I think it's a beautiful work of art. But since it wasn't released minutes after it was composed, it's garbage to you right?

Likewise, the entire Smile Sessions box is just rubbish... and "(WIBNT)LA" - pah, I fart in its general direction.

In fact, recorded music sucks - if it's not live, I don't wanna know.

Shes got rhythm

Didn't Ron Altbach leave a YouTube comment saying that he had been playing boogie woogie on piano when Brian suddenly came up with "laaaaaast night..."

Check out "Looking Good" on the Almost Summer soundtrack album.

Starts 8.40-ish. Sound familiar ?

Talking about rewrites from that particular era, I was listening to The Honey's Do Ya the other day (one of my fave late-70s Brian songs!) and it struck me for the first time how similar it is to Almost Summer. Strange how I never noticed that before!

[Andrew G. Doe]

"Do Ya" = "Marilyn Rovell" (chorus) and "Hows About A Little Bit" (verse).

Probably.

[phirnis]

Thanks for weighing in. I'm not a trained musician so my impressions about similarities tend to be a bit vague. (Probably.)

In any case, listening to these songs it always strikes me how incredibly catchy the music was that Brian created around that time. Great singalong material!

That last one especially made me laugh. One of my favorite parts of the whole movie.

Does that mean She's Got Rhythm is a contractually obligated hodgepodge of rehashed older material? Damn, I liked that song! I mean it was only slightly rocking but a good track nonetheless.

No way, by the time it's been thought, it's nothing but a tired, old rehash. It's pre-thought, half-fired synapses searching memories for various inspirations and half-formed ideas to combine and reorganize that are real music.

Correct, not one note can be recalled from memory.
