And how about that "Miss You" bassline? Disco heaven.

no, no, the original idea was a bass riff bill was playing during a rehearsal and keith liked it and asked him to keep playing it until he found the "main riff" (i was there. i was also there when pilate whashed his hands and sealed someone's fate...).

hum... now that you mention it, i think you're right. must have been the organ. but i suppose he was playing the notes of the bass line on the organ, yes ?

Al Jardine is a guy who is basically not covered at all in the stuff I have read about the Beach Boys. I get the feeling he was kinda conservative, just a guy who keeps to himself? Or is this the image I have made up for him due to lack of information? Also, the guy appears to be about Prince-height, eg petit.

"California Saga" was funnier before I realized that it was Al Jardine, not Mike Love, who recited the spoken word bits in "Beaks of Eagles". I just really liked the idea of the guy who had once gotten in a huff over the line "over and over the crow cries uncover the cornfield" discovering harder drugs, loosening up a little, and deciding a few years later that it would be a good idea to have a Beach Boys song about wagonloads of bodies and meteors plowing the wilderness. in a way I respect Al for masterminding one of the BB's weirdest but most satisfying post-Smile moments, but in another way I resent him for somehow spoiling a good lol.

Are there any good Beach Boys books that could give me a Jardine fact infusion? The one I read, while totally entertaining & ridiculous, was p much only about Dennis & Brian, with a moderate amount of Mike lols punctuating the exploits of the two Wilsons.

Brian Wilson's autobiography is all I've ever read, so I can't really help you there. Brian, Mike, and Dennis are such baffling, fucked up human beings, it's kinda inevitable that they overshadow straight-shooters like Al and Bruce Johnston in virtually all Beach Boys discourse/mythology.

Al was all training to be a dentist before the Beach Boys, which fits somehow. Al >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Bill W.
