On and off, yes.

This is by miles his best song.

Some of his others are shockers.

Whistling.

Track 5 - Student Demonstration Time.

SDT is usually classed as the Beach Boys worst song.

Written by Leiber and Stoller.

It is appalling.

Glam Rock keyboard effect.

I like it.

Typical Mike Love.

In a time of violent protests and revolution in the air Love tries to tap into the zeitgeist by doing a song that suggests you avoid it altogether.

It's almost the Beach Boys do The Sweet.

Every band has a song that even die hard fans hate and this is the BB's one.

Track 6 - Feel Flows.

Feel Flows.

This is amazing.

Really quite special.

Carl singing again.

So far, Carl Wilson has my favourite voice of the Beach Boys.

Unfolding enveloping missiles of soul
Recall senses sadly
Mirage like soft blue like lanterns below
To light the way gladly
Whether whistling heaven's clouds disappear
Where the wind withers memory
Whether whiteness whisks soft shadows away

[Chorus]
Feel flows (White hot glistening shadowy flows)
Feel goes (Black hot glistening shadowy flows)

[Verse 2]
Unbending never ending tablets of time
Record all the yearning
Unfearing all appearing message divine
Eases the burning
Whether willing witness waits at my mind
Whether hope dampens memory
Whether wondrous will stands tall at my side

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Encasing all embracing wreath of repose
Engulfs all the senses
Imposing, unclosing thoughts that compose
Retire the fences
Whether wholly heartened life fades away
Whether harps heal the memory
Whether wholly heartened life fades away
Whether wondrous will stands tall at my side
Whether whiteness whisks soft shadows away

[Chorus]
Feel goes (White hot glistening shadowy flows)
Feel flows (Black hot glistening shadowy flows)
Feel goes (White hot glistening shadowy flows)
Feelings to grow (White hot glistening shadowy flows)

[Outro]
White hot glistening shadowy flows
White hot glistening shadowy flows
White hot glistening shadowy flows

Guitar solo.

He has a lovely voice.

He was the most sweet and unassuming man as well.

Flute salad.

I like this one.

Sax.
