Teasing the Korean Posted July 15, 2023 Report Share Posted July 15, 2023 I always wished that this had been recorded for the Surfer Girl album. Well, 60 years later, here it is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JSngry Posted July 15, 2023 Report Share Posted July 15, 2023 Why do they call that Beach Boys? Even with the AI factor, that's Jan & Dean. The voices sound real, but like the tape was slowed down just ever so slightly. You know who did the artwork for Love You, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vocals: Brian sings on the Jan and Dean record. Beach Boys cred? Check. Lead vocal: AI - artificial intelligence, not Al Jardine - Mike Love, replacing Jan. So this is basically the Jan and Dean record, with AI Mike instead of Jan. Which means it's basically a Beach Boys record anyway. So I will happily take this over the original any day. YMMV. All I can say is that I'm pleased as punch that this is available, and I will happily dump "South Bay Surfer" or "Boogie Woodie" and add this instead.

It looked like an issue of Dynamite, which was popular among kids my age at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSngry Posted July 15, 2023 Report Share Posted July 15, 2023 Dean Torrence. That became his career after Jan Berry's unfortunate accident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not know that! Love You is easily in my Beach Boys top five LPs, and it was their last great album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
