We are a business, and you do a little of what you think's right, pay your bills, and attract... a single record attracts attention to your concerts and your albums.
From Bruce Johnston
For us... you know, we're not The Beatles.
We're just kinda surviving at a very comfortable level.
We're not trying to top ourselves with each record, obviously.
Well, a lot of our concerts do okay, and I know we still get royalty checks which still isn't that important, but again, I have to just say that we're making our records.
Everybody can dig The Beatles, but why should everybody dig us?
You know, The Beach Boys' image is kinda like a group Doris Day, you know what I mean?
Carl, Dennis and Brian are brothers, and Mike Love's a cousin.
The group started getting bigger and bigger, so Al started replacing Brian on the road, and then finally there was a big flare-up with Dave Marks and he left the group.
Brian came back in on the road and Al stayed, but Al's the original member of the group.
