Michael Bernard's low-quality footage is circulating again. This footage belongs to him, and I was the only one authorized to post it. Some of you treated this like a game, so I've sadly had to remove all the rare videos. Blame the few who ruined it for everyone.

People are telling me on the old man forum that Getcha Back by The Beach Boys does not sound like Hungry Heart by Bruce Springsteen, but they’re wrong

As a near-lifelong Brian Wilson and The Beach Boys fan, I've been a Mike Love hater for about as long. I thought I'd seen every pandering, hypocritical pose he's ever struck but I missed this one. Here's the Jester of Gesture with his good friends Peter Max and Keith Haring.

My all time favorite Beach Boys song. The lush harmonies, "Wall of Sound" vibes and youthful innocence always bring me comfort and happiness. Brian Wilson was a genius. youtu.be/SvZHoF0A9WQ?...

When folks aren’t that into The Beach Boys and are surprised that I am, I always tell em this: Take the image of The Beach Boys you got in your mind with all the surfing songs and such. Now imagine they have an album called Surf’s Up. Look up the album cover. Folks tend to get it immediately.

Check out our latest episode of my show, "Waves and Words." Jez, who has collaborated with artists like David Marks, is also a pianist at the Atlanta airport. His jazz interpretations of Beach Boys music are truly breathtaking. We were honored to talk to him. youtu.be/GYQME7gJT3w

"We had no idea that what we were doing was groundbreaking or revolutionary. Doing a TV show in the morning, a Beach Boys track or a Phil Spector session in the afternoon, then working with Frank Sinatra or Simon & Garfunkel after that – that was normal to us." Wrecking Crew legend Hal Blaine:

It takes real skill to write an album that is so clearly an homage to the 60s yet avoid parody or pastiche. Pugwash’s The Olympus Sound sounds like a mashup of the Beatles and Beach Boys but this is not just imitation. It evokes the Golden Age but still manages to feel timeless. #nowspinning #vinyl

The Beach Boys, 1967-11-17 Masonic Temple Theatre, Detroit, MI, USA. Excellent recording of a fun show featuring 4 songs from the forthcoming album Wild Honey, Good Vibrations from Smiley Smile, a few older hits, 2 covers, and plenty of banter.

the beach boys were an odd lot when you think about it. it's like if the beatles had started out only singing songs about Liverpool and felt that they had to keep up with the gimmick for their whole career.

Remembering singer-songwriter & hippie influencer eden ahbez, born George Alexander Aberle, April 15, 1908, Brooklyn, NYC (d. March 4, 1995). ahbez wrote the song "Nature Boy," which became a # 1 hit for 8 weeks in 1948 for Nat "King" Cole. It is considered a pop & jazz standard. More in alt text.

Regardless of my emotions, I have worked very hard to bring you all sorts of interviews, and I will continue to do so. God help me. Not just because I'm stubborn but because this band's music is my one escape from the burning world around me. So be it.

I'm sorry I haven't been updating this place as well as I should. My job, the fandom, and what's happening worldwide haven't necessarily helped my focus. I try not to make this political, but you all know what I say. Enjoying a hobby you love when the world is burning is hard.
