Regarding the medley on the Griffin show, my favorite part is Brian lip synching Carl's part on Good Vibrations ... and I can't help but wonder whether Brian has the slightest idea what's going on.

Holy merda! I've been wanting to see this for YEARS. I've said this before, and I'll say it again: That medley is the sloppiest, most confusing thing I've heard. Who the heck edited it together? A two year old? There is absolutely no rhyme nor reason for any of it. Al looks confused as hell, as does Bruce. It was the same thing with the American Bandstand 20th Anniversary show. At least on Merv Griffen Dennis looks like he's actually paying attention, and trying to follow along. On American Bandstand Dennis looks like he's about to keel over any minute. Did anybody catch, in this clip, Mike going over to Dennis and saying something? It's during Fun Fun Fun. It doesn't look to friendly.
I friggin' hate that performance. It's not even a performance. Thats basically the Merv Griffin show saying, we like your old sound so we'll just play the original studio recording over your voices.

Wow! Talk about comfortable in front of a crowd! For some reason I picture Mike when I see him strut around, not in a negative way tho.

No, it isn't that at all. The Merv Griffin show didn't decide to release that medley as a single. The Beach Boys, their label and/or their various representatives did. The Merv Griffin show booked them through the band's own promotional efforts of their own (however unfortunate) release.
As for their old sound, well, the Griffin show audience was in line with the band themselves and pretty much the rest of the world by that time, preferring the old hits to anything new. (Beach Boys Medley hit #12 on the Billboard charts according to Andrew Doe's site.) Let's be honest, by this time the band abandoned new music. The last gasp at such a thing was
Light Album
, several years before this performance. Their most recent album at this time was the decidedly retro
Keepin The Summer Alive
, and while their next one,
The Beach Boys
had modern production, most of the tunes were even more nostalgic. They were a jukebox by this time. Merv Griffin's show had nothing to do with that.

And, the actual album that was being promoted on The Merv Griffin Show with that performance (Merv displays the album) is Ten Years Of Harmony. The Beach Boys Medley isn't even on that album! The group showed no faith in the Ten Years Of Harmony material to perform a song from that album. And, when they did choose a single from Ten Years Of Harmony, with all of those "creative" early/mid 70's tracks, it was......"Come Go With Me".

There seem to be a lot of the more rare Beach Boys related videos being posted lately on YouTube. I keep hoping that one day somebody will post Brian's interview on Live with Regis and Kathy Lee.

They performed one song from the album at the Merv Griffin show, it was Lady Lynda.

I tried to make it funny on top of being a song that isn't elsewhere on Youtube I don't think. American Spring if you're wondering what it is.

Finally! Thank you!! I've been waiting for somebody to put up that song. I've said it before and I'll say it again: I LOVE that part where the music builds up to the "Arise" lyric. It gives me goosebumps every time.
