was gonna mention that mike has rerecorded "do it again" twice now but noticed that brian is also guilty of rerecording this not-especially-great song too.

Looking forward to Mike's new dirge-like arrangement of 'Brian's Back (A Lamentation)'.

I am surprised he neglected 'Student Demonstration Time'. Probably didn't want to give the snowflakes any ideas.

a shame he didn't go for the obvious "Mike Love Not War" song title.

I want his next album cover to be nothing but a photo of a glove embroidered with his initials.
Think about it.

my glove not yours

He needs to save that shot for an album entitled Namaste.

currently sitting at 0.82 on RYM. after listening to it, I can say it is certainly not *that* bad, but if being a total jerkoff is a 1-star penalty then the rating makes sense.
second disc is hilarious by the way. the amount of auto-tune on this record makes me nauseous.
― frogbs, Thursday, 30 November 2017 21:43 (six years ago) link
Meanwhile it's sitting at 4.5/5 on Amazon, described by one reviewer as "One of the best solo albums by a beach boy and a sincere effort by Mike Love."
"One of the best solo albums by a Beach Boy" has to be some of the faintest musical praise in history.

Imagine "Commando" in the style of "Kokomo." In fact, imagine "Commando" as the direct prequel to "Kokomo."

Sixty plus years of existence and the Beach Boys will always be this tangled mess, finally turning into the full Jarndyce v Jarndyce it always was. The lawsuits will never be resolved in the end, I suspect.
Message from @BrianWilsonLive: “It has been brought to my attention that on Wednesday February 5, The Beach Boys touring group licensed by Mike Love are headlining at the Safari Club International Convention in Reno, Nevada...” https://t.co/pWDByRcjlA— Paul Myers (@pulmyears) February 3, 2020

Isn't there supposed to be like a registered trademark symbol after 'The Beach Boys Touring Group Licensed by Mike Love'?
