So...... this is the NEW music thread..............but since we don't have an OLD music thread, so far as I know...........I thought I'd drop this comment and link here.
I was bouncing around Youtube........listening to new and contemporary stuff...........when some how the algorithm decided to offer me 'Beach Boys' in the list.........
A sound I enjoyed...........a very long time ago.........
At any rate, 2 clips later............I see something that blows my mind............I knew they got back together for Kokomo in the late 80s.....
Don't think they did anything original after that..........
But I was taken aback to see they did a live performance stadium show in Japan, in 2012......including Brian Wilson........
At the time........Mike Love (lead singer) was 71 years old..........; subsequently, w/o Wilson, many of the originals were together again as late as 2019.....at which point Love was 78.......
How utterly extraordinary.....
