No i haven't. Brian Wilson was one of the greatest writers. I grew up to the Beach Boys as did most Californian's and Hawaiians.

Yup, according to my forecast for the next week there are only a couple more sub-freezing nights to put up with. Then the overnight will get all the way up into the 40's

They played at the football field here several years ago. Could hear them pretty good from across the fence.

Many years earlier I saw the real thing a couple times but never up close.

I didn't have a proper appreciation for Pet Sounds until a few years ago. Maybe the best album ever recorded - worst case top 5.

Really interesting story about that album against what the Beatles were doing at the time. Wilson was phenomenal.

Remember them well. Mid-late 70s was a ripe time for 50s/early 60s nostalgia groups and they did it better than most. Sha-Na-Na too. Both latched on to the popularity of Happy Days.
