I've had this tape for years, ever since that wonderful day at Beach Boys Stomp 36 years ago. It really was the all-time fan moment, and totally unexpected, even after Stomp co-organiser Mike Grant had phoned me the night before to ask if I had a keyboard... I carried my mates Paul and Butch's DX7 on the tube, and set up the mic for "a guest". "How tall is he?" I asked. "About the same as you,"...

Ric Neale and I really enjoyed playing some "deeper cuts" at The Final Wave in Lutterworth on 20th April 2024. These were the first two, but the two set-closers (Tears in the Morning and Leaving This Town) ended up with audio dominated by a very chatty social huddle in "Gudge Corner" at the back of the room... Cheers chaps! 😉 Check out the "Beach Boys UK fan conventions" playlist for a growing ...

A bit of fun reliving the real fun and pleasure of hearing these lovely old friends picking their Brian, Carl, Dennis and Mike parts for a hastily-concocted harmony workshop rendition of the Beach Boys' In My Room at The Final Wave in Lutterworth last weekend.

This was an exciting day for us. Bassist Dave Lloyd and I sat in my car on a hot, sweltering day in Soho just before our soundcheck at the Marquee, listening to the radio. Our song Treehouse won Gary Crowley's "Demo Clash" on his Sunday afternoon GLR show. The legendary club was on a downhill slump at this time. It had moved from Wardour Street to a nice, bigger venue just around the corner. Bu...

This was my first venture on to the Manchester live music scene after I got back from the States in early 1993. Band boss Andy Clarke (here on trusty synth, fuse replaced with the inside of a fag packet) described the sound he wanted as "Heavy Romantic". We were in a genre of one! It was a lot of fun playing and recording with Andy, Dave and the boys, and the band also introduced us to the incr...

    Mike Love is so handsome, even at 83. His premature balding made him look older as The Beach Boys started out in their teens and early 20’s. But once he figured out hats detract from that look, his fabulous bone structure shone through, and still does.

    Love this. The Hotlegs track has bits that remind me of “Lovely Rita” and a bass line reminiscent of what’s on “Come Together”. Love 10cc. Interviewed both in Hong Kong after their tour of Japan and still remember saying that I would love to hear them work with McCartney. Close. Jeez, I hear lots of brilliant bibs and bobs here.

    I'd be interested in hearing from someone more capable in this area. My point/question is, although, it sounds brilliant, is the problem with it that just around the corner immense changes were taking place with technology. Did they fail to consider the possible problem of Technological obsolenscence? Though does, in fact, the newer synthesizers do as good a job? Or any other technology?

    • @smacreavy

    What a strange strange album. I used to see their album L in the cut out bins all the time - often not a good sign - but something about that cover kept nagging me to buy it and I was so glad I did. It was like prog rock but with a wicked sense of humor, often hard to find in Jon Anderson (don't yell at me. I love Yes) or Pink Floyd (them too). Then I was so excited to see the Consequences box set but alas it was too expensive for my teenage self. Then I read the reviews which were AWFUL ! One critic gave it an F minus minus or something. Young people reading this - don't ever listen to rock critics if such a thing even exists anymore. The only way to know for sure if an album is good is to hear it yourself. This is very different and a lot more abstract than L but it's just as wild and original and I love it. Thanks so much for uploading it !!
