The Beach Boys - Catch A Wave/Hawaii/Don't Back Down/Surfin' Safari (Live 2012)

[@paulpelentay9337]

Brian Wilson is one of the greatest composers of all time. U can put him up with Schubert, Mozart, Beethoven, and others and he is just as good as them. I have been a BB fan since 1964 and it is 2024. When I played high school football, we listened to the BB’s while lifting weight. My head coach played bass on one the songs. My mom fell in love the the Bb’s because of. They are a part of me. Love then

[@danielfisch389]

@@darrenallen7754 agree. Though I am a total Beatles fanatic, it must be said that the Beach Boys were BASED on harmony singing and thus, Brian had emulated groups like the Four Freshmen. The Beatles of course had excellent singing too, but they had different roots, Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Buddy Holly, Motown etc. So Frey was right, you can‘t top the BB as far as harmony singing is concerned.

I believe this was Brian Wilson’s best tour with the Beach boys post 1964. I don’t think he ever worked so hard… He played piano and sang on most of the songs rather than just sitting there at the piano not playing with the band doing everything. Mike along with the rest of the band sounded great on this tour.

Lots of people thought The Beach Boys were a surf band. But I always considered them what we know call a doowop group. Their vocal harmonies were always so tight and with Brian then Carl doing the falsetto tenor parts they were as good as most doowop groups. Now Matt Jardine, Al's son, does the falsetto tenor parts and he's great. Bruce Johnson has been with them at least 50 years. After 57 years they are still performing and still great.
