Thanks Andrew. It will be interesting to read anything in the book that will be "news" to this forum. Given the recollections of the various parties, it is possible

"Look, originally the book was slated to end in 1974 with no contributions from Dave Marks, Blondie Chaplin, or Ricky Fataar. I, (Brother Records President) Jerry Schilling, and the band pushed back hard against it."
So... they do contribute?

This is a weird comment to follow up on that article, but they made the point that the Beach Boys were branded with the music of 1962-1966; imagine if the wide world only knew the Beatles from "Thank You Girl" and "P.S. I Love You". I think the pre-Rubber Soul Beatles records are seriously underrated. So often I reach to put on a Beatles album, and it's "A Hard Days Night" or "Beatles VI" or "Meet the Beatles". I'm disappointed that the book ends in 1980, but it looks like it will be worth owning.

This article makes me more optimistic that there might be some real meat to this book. If that optimism is borne out, then the Uncut article might have done it something of a disservice, as it gives the impression of a glorified picture book, with extended captions in the style of Nick Wise’s 1994 Omnibus Press book, The Beach Boys In Their Own Words. Fingers crossed!
