Al posted a link to this on facebook:


Confessions of a Beach Boy
The Beach Boy's Al Jardine on life, love, art, brotherhood and jetlag
Logged

a diseased bunch of mo'fos if there ever was one… their beauty is so awesome that listening to them at their best is like being in some vast dream cathedral decorated with a thousand gleaming American pop culture icons.

- Lester Bangs on The Beach Boys


PRO SHOT BEACH BOYS CONCERTS - LIST


To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

Here's the link.

Alan obviously highly values Bruce and David's presence in terms of band "completeness."
But he is jet-lagged, so we'll forgive him. Mike being "unavailable" is admirably tactful.

...or Blondie and Ricky's.

Come on Zargo. You know what he means. He's talking about these guys...



The guys that the world, for the most part, knows as "THE BEACH BOYS"...

Now I love Blondie, Dave, Ricky and (gulp) Bruce (sh*t, I love Surfers' Pajama Party) much as anybody, but that photo right there...that's The Beach Boys.

The topic title read like Al is going to publish his biography. But it's interview - I'm not fan of interviews, unless they're videoed. There's too many of them & I've not patience to read every single thing they utter. & anybody. The interviews in general don't interest me. There're exceptions though, like 2013/14 Rock Cellar magazine interviews.

Who is Lucille Ball & Vivian Vance Duet Fan Club CEO? Btw, such Club exists?
