I just happened to be listening to Morning Christmas on the way to work today.  IMO, the best track on the abandoned 1970s Christmas album by a long shot. 

Happy Birthday.

The absence of musicians has rarely left such a hole in my life.

With Dennis it was more than just the music.

Gonna fire up POB later and raise a glass.

Playing A Time to Live in Dreams as I type. Wonderful song! Incredible how stuff like that could remain unreleased for such a long time. This one definitely should've been on a regular album. As Brian Wilson said, the guy was a genius in his own right.

Dennis Wilson, born Dec. 4, a Beach Boy--was under-agented, and man enough to take it. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=VokiVu95xbU&

A belated happy birthday to Dennis Wilson. Pretty mind-blowing to think that he would be 71 if he was still alive. Frankly, it wouldn't be easy to imagine him at that age haha. Anyway, thank you for the music and all your contributions to the Beach Boys, Denny!

It means Van Dyke loves being passive-aggressive.

As EmdeeH said two years ago, Happy Denny Day, everyone.

The expression "taken from us far too soon" was made for Dennis.

It means Van Dyke loves being passive-aggressive.

I read it as "didn't have enough people on his side/on his team/in his corner", or something like that.

Hi Surfer. Sounds like a great ambition. :=)

Digging this grungy 1973 BB version of "River Song" (see comments). Just love that guitar sound! And the frantic percussion at the end----fantastic!

Heavy!

I was wondering if anyone was gonna say anything about that "womanizer" comment, lol. Surfer probably doesn't understand what it means.
