WTF. Did I miss something, or the writer?

Surely this can't be right? Al's website still says "release details coming soon". Surely they would have changed that by now if it was coming out in a few days!

After such a long wait, I hope he's going to treat us to at least one more re-recording of one of the Beach Boys' golden greats. Grin

In the interview Al did a few weeks ago he said that it would take quite a while to print up the cover art and that he wouldn`t mind even delaying it until next year. I can`t see it being out this soon.

Al d... said that it would take quite a while to print up the cover art...

Longer than it takes to record and release the album? Is the cover art being hand-etched by the same monks who produced the Lindisfarne Gospels?

Err, no. But the album has already been recorded. The artwork hadn`t been done when he gave the interview. Simple enough for you?

Is Al subconsciously (or consciously?) trying to manufacture his own SMiLE?

Isn't that a picture of the cover art on Al's website? And it's been there for ages now - not sure, but pretty much since I can remember the album being announced the cover art has been there.

If its the same material that was posted last year I would save that money for another time. I 've always liked Al  but the material I heard was pretty weak. Do we need a blues version of "Help Me Rhonda"? I kind of doubt it.

I HATE the blues version of Rhonda BTW. But Al's debut album is historic in any Beach Boys collection. So I will buy it no matter what. Heck, I hate "The Beach Boys Love You" LP, but bought it so my collection would be complete.

Yes but read the original post - it's the printing that takes the time, right?

Well, it's not a blues version per se. But in fact the song that inspired "Help me Rhonda" was a R'n'B-song. Listen here:

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.

So, what does everybody think of Al's album?  Do you like it?   I'm sure you all rushed to the local record store to get a copy on its release day..    Lips Sealed

Brilliant. Better than BWPS, easily so. On a par with Summer In Paradise, is my first impression.

I bought two copies: one to remain sealed in my CD collection, and one for the in-laws.

I've buried one copy for safekeeping, and am currently getting a solid gold cabinet to host my second one.

I wonder why no one got the Audio-DVD. There's alot of bonus on it, including video for the sessions with Brian and Mike
