I think the Beach Boys were probably the biggest influence in B&B music, don't you think Elin? Interesting interview...since you were nice enough to put up the words so I could read it!! Thanks for sharing it with me my friend!

yes I think so too Dallas, with the "wall-of-sound"- thing. They mention that in another interview.

glad you enjoyed it my friend!:)
