That's from a documentary predating the long-lost Smile album, which is now finally available (and probably the best Beach Boys album ever, and that include Pet Sounds, my former best Beach Boys album ever, so we're not just whistling "Dixie" here). [Via] I only acquired the album a couple of weeks ago; even though I know all the songs, and I have the solo recreated version Brian put together, this is the keeper, with the original tracks by the original BBs.Last year on this date I posted this, containing three videos, including one from Orange Crate Art, a relatively recent and ridiculously underrated album Brian made with his Smile collaborator, Van Dyke Parks. And of course, right now Brian is on the road with his old band, which has a new and fine album out, and after all these years, and lots of troubles, Brian is still hanging in there.
Happy birthday, and many more.
