AL JARDINE'S ENDLESS SUMMER BAND (feat. DAVID MARKS) - 'BEACH BOYS MEDLEY'

[MrNostalgiaX]

Hawt damn! This was not bad considering the Bruce and Mike Beach Boys videos I've seen over the past several years. Mike has the easiest notes to sing in all the songs then and now and he can't compare to this. Even Jardine has bowed down to David Marks's guitar playing many times in interviews. I am aware that Marks has been quite bitter about what Murry did to him in and after the Beach Boys, but at least he doesn't hold anything against the band now. I did hear that he was always close to Mi

[TheSom03]

Yeah - it's a little slow, the drums aren't "driving" enough. Irregardless of the performance, it would still be pretty cool to see and have a chance at meeting Al.

[Okiemom50]

Go to BrianWilson . com

They are announcing them doing a new CD and also a 50 show tour! I can't wait!

[robeast9009]

Just curious medic, why am I kidding?

[Medic83301]

@robeast9009 As long as Brian has his way , and as he's stated before there will be no chance of a BB's reunion tour ever . Brian Wilson is Brian Wilson and The Beach Boys are The Beach Boys .

[Medic83301]

@dylz84 I'M HAPPY AS A LARK !! I can't wait until they go to Salt Lake City or Boise because this will be a once in a lifetime concert to go to !

[robeast9009]

I hear Jardine, Love, Johnston & Wilson were recently in the studio together, I hope The Beach Boys listen to Beach Boy fans & include David Marks on the recordings, for we can hear a new recording of some of that classic dirty beach boys rhythm guitar style, make it happen beach boys, the stage is big enough for Jardine & Marks together, by the way Jardine & Marks recorded some tunes together on the surfer girl album, the classic catch a wave is one of those tunes, long live the Beach Boys

[Medic83301]

@robeast9009 WHAT ? YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME !! :D

[LiviJones]

I'll always love the song 409, but a commercial from my childhood won't let me listen to it anymore without thinking of household cleaner.

[OropherThranduil]

@veit56211de

er ist 62 mit 13 beigetreten, sein letztes konzert mit ihnen war am October 19, 1963, danach hatten seine eltern nen streit mit murry wilson wegen geld usw, und kurz darauf war er draußen.

[wmg1958]

I think these guys are , at least at this point, tighter than the current Beach Boys line-up, with a little more of the original spirit. I've seen and enjoyed the Brian Wilson band in the last few years, and I'm not one of those BB fans that hate Mike Love, but WOW, these guys have that great rockin' feel that I enjoyed when I was a kid.  IMHO, Al's voice has held up better than Brian's or Mike's. I saw him with Brian in Oakland. He can still hit the sweet spot.

[ashie259]

Oh dear - some nice guitar by David Marks aside, this is desperate stuff. Al looks - and sings - like Jack Nicklaus 

[TheCody1813]

A few of em are dead though

[alstrains]

wouldn't it be nice to see all of the last of the beach boys performing together on stage before it is too late, stop all the bickering and one thing that they all do best, as John Lennon once said, the only way to go out is SINGING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[brenamilito]

please, came to make a show in brazil, i beg u allll, alll jardineeeee lol!!!

[PassWorId]

409 = three of their ages combined

[BeachBoysGuy1]

Ed Carter and Billy Hinsche def belong iny sort of "re-union" show this winter.

[nonnenja2281]

Of all the surviving Beach Boys, Al's voice is by far in the best shape. I would much rather hear him singing lead on these classic songs than Mike Love.

[wgdanson]

David Marks.....vocals.....where's his microphone?

[kookytootfloot]

David Marks lost out when he left the group, look at the money and fame he left behind when they got to be big time.l

[BeachBoysGuy1]

@kookytootfloot I wasn't there, but the story goes that Murray fired him.

[rwk1983]

@BeachBoysGuy1 i heard he quit cauz he was cocky and so was his parents apparently

[rwk1983]

@BeachBoysGuy1 but im sure murray helped sabotage marks career (although i doubt he would of made it big anyway)

[fvr5000]

There is not one of the 'young boys' in the Mike Love version of the Beach Boys, who has an understanding of the "musicality" of these Brain Wilson produced songs...Al Jardine is really the 'voice' of the Beach Boys on tour...David Marks...damn! he is the "real deal" on that Fender...these are the real Beach Boys!!

[lowijkvh]

I've been playin' rock,metal,and blues.THIS is the real stuff,this kicks aaaaaaaaaaasssssssssss!

[relimes]

Its Al Jardine, David Marks, and Napolean Dynomite singing 409!

[AllenOption8]

David actually played on the orig's of these (well 409 and Shut Down and Deuce) - why he is rockin out. Man, the guy can play ALL styles of music. Sorry I missed this show - where was I? Hope they - Do It Again!

[VEGASTOLLY]

Al and the guys were great in Vegas last July at the Cannery Hotel/Casino!

[ROCKSTARCRANE]

A tad slow, fellas. Vocals are in tune though. God Almighty, that's Eddie Carter on bass. He's been touring with the Boyz since electricity.

[AcrossfromtheAlamo]

I'm waiting on the Ed Carter autobiography.... oh the stories....

[MyCelticHeaven]

You may be slow when you are 100 years old! Just kidding... they do need to pick up the pace... the Wilsons are turning in their graves at this speed!

[THeMaskedBlogCritic]

@MyCelticHeaven That proves how Dennis used to drive this band. He was a great underrated drummer who had problems when Brians arrangements got more complicated, but for the straight rocking early Beach Boys, he was the man.

[OropherThranduil]

@THeMaskedBlogCritic

well, he was no ringo starr, keith moon, not even a charlie watts, but he was great for their early songs.

their first live album totally rocks, but yeah, he's got nothing on all those great hal blaine tracks.

[yeoGlover]

Is that the guy far right? I remeber him on the Knebworth dvd-even on some vocals for the Beach boys.

[boyders16]

@yeoGlover Yeah Ed Carter, he usually played bass for the Beach Boys but he's lead guitarist on the knebworth dvd and Joe Chemay's on bass.

[yeoGlover]

@boyders16 Cool thanks!



[DAVWAVE]

@ROCKSTARCRANE they used to speed up the records you know.

[stamlove0708]

Damn I woulda loved to been there. David's solo's kick ass

[weasleychick]

Yes Al did do songs off the new album..Postcards from California and Driving, along with Honkin Down the Highway. All the shows on the tour were great!

[kingofallwhites]

Man I hope they do more shows in major cities around here. I missed this one.

[Thomnic]

I saw them in concert last night at the Balloon Festival in Readington, NJ. They sounded great!! Very good harmonies and they played all their hit songs!!

[MissClassicDoux]

Great stuff!!!!!Love it, go AL!!!!

[markcruiser64]

I honestly think Al has aged the BEST out of all The Beach Boys. He still sings exactly like he sounded in the 60's. AMAZING!

[STExxxx]

Did he play any song off his new album?

[kickhunter1]

Al should be back with the boys! He is missed!

[red35rob]

On the contrary. They should be with him! There are more original BBs here then the official band.

[weasleychick]

I agree

[iwojima654]

He's Still got a great voice!!

[iwojima654]

Awesome, gotta love AL Jardine!!! Great Guy!!!

[mattjackleroy]

I was at this show the other night. Fine show. Matt Jardine has a very impressive voice, not quite up to Jeff Foskett but not far off.
