I saw the current Beach Boys Tour Band. They put on a fantastic show and everyone there had a great time, despite heavy rain. I wish Carl was still alive and that the band was together, but that's not the case. There are always rumors that Brian & Al will rejoin the other two (with David Marks, possibly) and perform together again. That would be interesting. However, Brian's role in that would be somewhat limited. He doesn't sing that well anymore, though he has come a long way recently.
@mdefil23 I would normally totally agree with you, as Brian Wilson was/is one of the most positive people on the planet. What Mike Love has done to the Beach Boys is a stain on this beautiful music. Suing Brian, badmouthing him, and touring around calling his sham "The Beach Boys". It makes this hard to swallow. As I said before, Carl is the only thing that redeems this version of the band, and now that he is regrettably no longer with us, Mike Love continues this charade and buries this music.
A VERY good lead vocal done by Carl here (the original was of course sung by his brother Brian who is not present in this particular line up). IMHO, since Carl died and Al left, the magic is gone.
@openuptheireyes You probably think he left in the late 60's because of his mind health, but no. I read somewhere he actually left the band for good a year before Carl's death.
Carl smoked? Really?

Carl sounds booze-voiced.

@Goeslightly Carl was way passed booze. This was his cigarette smoking voice which eventually took his life, sadly.

I am proudly one of the people who thumbed this down. The only reason it's acceptable at all is because of Carl. Mike Love is despicable.

What a negative person. How can you even associate with the Beach Boys? They're all about positive music :)
