It's to bad that Wild Honey hadn't already come out, because I think a set of those songs along with one or two of the "weirder" Smiley Smile songs(H&V, Fall Breaks And Back To Winter, Wind Chimes, etc) could have made for a great show at Monterey Pop.
I wonder how a stripped down arrangement would’ve went over then, like the Lei’d at Hawaii sound . Sounds like a disaster but that organ sound might actually have worked in that setting
I was thinking the same thing about the Hawaii lineup for the performance. My hypothetical Monterey Pop Beach Boys show would end with a solo performance of "Surf's Up" from Brian on the Baldwin.
