Man, that's sad news. A fantastic musician has left us. But at least he has found peace now.

My favourite Glen song----it was in my piano repertoire for years:

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.

Leon Russell or smb. else said Glen was the best guitar player he met ever. Is there session musician who could sing as well? It looks like he's praised as guitarist & singer. Aside from that, I liked his stage presence/ interviews - humble, classy, no rich rockstar image. He was jolly likable, to be short.

Short notice: the cat you see to the left is the best. Not counting your indoor cat who might have habit sitting at your left side when you post at SmileySmile.

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