pretty ironic that he picked one of the none-brian song haha

paul weller is the one that bullied him into liking at least this song, he himself is a huge bbs stan unlike noel, he speaks greatly about friends

Can't get into Paul

☹️

today is the best beach boys album

carnation.. so many great songs tho

not mad at this take, it has no fillers

I've only attempted the Jam though tbh

he has incredible tunes post jam:

Give me an album

word is that bolan raved about mona

mmm well wild wood for solo and cafe bleu for style councils project

will put it on the backburner for now, but I'll def give it a spin eventually

imagine seeing things advertised as "The Beach Boys with Mike Love" as if that was the selling point

with a trump quote on it “huge, tremendous guy!!!”

"I know all the best people, the best!"

you go into a record store, you see this

but instead it's MIKE LOVE RARITIES

take a look y’all

thought he caught me slippin

need that Summer in Paradise studio chatter

Do You Wanna Dance is one of the goat openers of all time no questions asked

Hmmm, it's possible for sure but they didn't really have another member, especially at the beginning (and arguably not until people like Blondie Chaplin joined with his charisma) who had the pure frontman ability and stage presence of Mike, a lot of the time early on he carried a lot of their live show's energy (I feel)! He also had a pretty unique normal register with that distinct nasally delivery as well as a really nice low register for the low harmonies that blended well with the rest of the group

oh also if you guys are Patti Smith fans check out Scorsese's dope 2019 Rolling Thunder Revue doco, some great stuff with her in there I just remembered

I like the 71 version best, Brian’s vocals are cool too but not finished we still get him in the second movement of 71 while getting the cleaner Carl vocals on the first
