Mike sings lead throughout.

The track is included in a video on the USB drive that accompanies the 2016 VIP tour program coffee table book.

Kind of like the later 60's version of Dean and ?'s Surf City are they?  Re-recorded but to what end?  To satiate the old rear-end himself?  And once again he participates in ripping the public off with his sub-standard 'take' on 'art'.  A pox on him and everything he supposedly represents.  [only himself]

I wouldn't buy his crap or even listen to it with YOUR money or your ears.  He completely disgusts me.  Ungrateful tub o' rat's  poop.

bit of a swizz having that as the only file when his shop/gumroad described it as "a USB bookmark containing Beach Boys footage" -  technically true (it's overdubbed on the orig video - looks nice) but still.

Just listened and it's actually not bad.

They overdubbed Mike's solo recording onto the old Beach Boys promo film? That's pretty lame if that's the case.

I'm surprised these tracks haven't popped up on YouTube yet. You can listen to Mike's 80s Hyatt Regency jingles on YouTube, but not these songs?  LOL

I agree, weird inconsistent policy. If they were at Youtube, people could download them via clipconverter.

And production aside, I’d so much rather hear a 14 year old David Marks shred some guitar on Chug-a-lug than hear a 51 year old Mike Love sing about bangin some chick in a swimming pool.-rab2591

I was only able to listen on cheapie speakers (will have to try headphones later). The "Sloop" re-recording definitely sounds more faithful to the original than, say, the Adrian Baker-helmed covers from the 90s. The whole thing still sounds rather sterile and soulless, but it's certainly professional and workmanlike. Could have been worse I guess?

Mike's voice sounds relatively synthetic; somewhat like his voice on "Alone on Christmas Day" from last year. It's either pretty processed and/or there's a smidgen of autotune going on. The whole exercise seems rather pointless to me, and plastering the solo Mike recording onto the original BB promo film is pretty ridiculous. Does anybody really think Mike wouldn't have blown a stack if, say, in 2004, Brian had released a USB drive with the original Beach Boys "Good Vibrations" promo film, but with Brian's re-recording dubbed onto it?

I suppose Capitol may own the "Sloop" promo film rather than BRI; I can't imagine BRI would have signed off on that sort of misappropriation of a vintage Beach Boys film.

HeyJude: Me too. Not owning the product itself, is that clip exactly what came included with Mike's GV VIP package on the thumb drive? It's one thing to remake the songs, it's another to put it to the original Capitol promo film from '66.

I of course don't have the USB and just viewed the clip posted on Vimeo. But someone previously had described that the USB was supposed to have "footage", and what it amounted to was indeed the original promo film with Mike's solo recording pasted over it.

What a weird choice of song, and a weird choice of the context with which to present it. I guess the PS anniversary is the only tie-in I can think of to explain the song choice, and of the "well known" PS songs, it's the only song that Mike could feasibly sing the entire lead on.

Remember Mike did blow a stack back in 2004 that kept blowing into years of legal filings, defeats, and appeals over a UK Sunday publication putting an archival Beach Boys photo showing Mike with the group, onto a giveaway CD featuring Brian that was exclusive to subscribers of that publication in the UK.

So this seems to be in line with what Mike objected to 12 years ago, it's Mike's remake recording of a Beach Boys song that is playing over 1966 footage of the Beach Boys, including Brian, Carl, Dennis, and Al who had nothing to do with this specific recording.

Odd.
