Well I guess they wouldn't be called Beach Boys if they weren't suitable for a desert island.
Only one of them could surf - and he drowned. False advertising.

Currently stuck in traffic in Fark Carlton with The Dead Heart absolutely pumping.

Now there is a blast from the past.
Haven’t heard Roy for years.
The man can certainly play.

*and Every Picture Tells a Story
From back when Rod was worth a listen.
A fine album.
In fact I might go put on the eye patch, whack the parrot on the shoulder, and go get me a copy.
Once again; it’s been a long time.
Too long.

gotta jettison one album from my original top 10 list and replace with Meliora by Ghost. Don’t think I’ve listened to an album on such a regular ongoing basis since I was a teenager. Virtually nothing else has had a look in since I got the CD. Every song sooo strong.

Correct! - all over when he met Britt and started crooning.

Agree,rod went chasing hits,Ronnie wood went chasing stardom.i really admire Jeff beck.he chased neither.

Seems like a good time to revisit this great thread. Currently trying to work out how I can fit in Beck’s Mellow Gold, and FNM, Introduce Yourself - which I’ve been listening to a lot lately, very underrated album, probably unsurprisingly given the quality of the Patton period. Finally I don’t think I could include it before Angel Dust or King for a Day, but it has a quite distinct groove - everything to do with Billy Gould - compared to the later albums. ZA classic before the classics.
