The Beach Boys must be pretty good if George Will writes a column about the group


We check George Will every week for sound political analysis.   We were very happy to read what Mr. Will wrote about The Beach Boys:

"They are currently on a 50th-anniversary tour that has more than 60 concerts scheduled and others still being booked. Their new album, “That’s Why God Made the Radio,” debuted at No. 3 in Billboard’s listing, and with this the Beach Boys topped the Beatles for most weeks on Billboard’s top-10 album chart."

Indeed, The Beach Boys are touring but this is not the original band.  Carl & Dennis Wilson are dead.  Al Jardine, who did the lead vocals on "Help me Rhonda", has apparently retired.  

It's Brian Wilson & Mike Love touring as The Beach Boys.  Nevertheless, we love their sound.  We are also happy to see that Mike Love & Brian Wilson, the duo that wrote a lot of their hits, are friends again.

"Well since she put me down I 've been out doin' in my head
Come in late at night and in the mornin' I just lay in bed
Well, Rhonda you look so fine (look so fine)

And I know it wouldn't take much time
For you to help me Rhonda
Help me get her out of my heart

Help me Rhonda
 
Help me Rhonda yeah
Get her out of my heart

She was gonna be my wife

And I was gonna be her man
But she let another guy come between us
And it shattered our our plan
Well, Rhonda you caught my eye (caught my eye)

And I can give you lots reasons why
You gotta help me Rhonda
Help me get her out of my heart..."
