..at the hop.. really?
Sounds like Al Jardine was involved.

I thought The Beach Boys recorded a demo of "At The Hop" in the past for some album, with, I believe, Michael E. Love on lead vocals. Huh

Yep...the 1985 self-titled album.  Got a recording of it somewhere.

Basically except for Getcha Back I think the whole 1985 project sucked. Male Ego is so so. Carl's stuff is well sung but I hate the mor 80's  sound of those tracks.

i think 'where i belong' and 'i do love you' were the strongest tracks on that album...i wish they werent overlooked, i think they're underrated.

Pleasure Island - Is it going to be?

After Brian's solo history of the tortured artist who, walks the line, lays down his burden, dances the night away, and welcomes a brand new day has gotten a little old, for me anyway, I welcome something that might be based more on fun than recovery.

This Pleasure Island appears to be right up Brian's alley. While I'm not encouraging a bunch of covers, or trying to emulate his old stuff - Brian's been there, done that - I've always enjoyed that hedonistic side of Brian. "Amusement Parks U.S.A.", "Roller Skating Child", "The Boogie's Back In Town", "It's Trying To Say (Baseball)", and "Someone To Love" is some wild, weird stuff. I miss that crazy (in a good way) side of Brian. Is it still there? Maybe he could call up Grandpa Mike and Uncle Al and start chasing girls around again! Evil

Great post.
