The Beach Boys - Good Vibrations (Live Aid 1985) 

Best thing for everybody really.

😂😂😂

I honestly cackled over that. :-)

Mike Love man he made the band...🙂

Carl look disgusted at this ranting moron and just cut him off.

I love your comment but I don't think anyones ever underappreciated carls voice

Your comment contradicts itself.

dude , he is NOT underappreciated. Browse around RU-vid. He is totally acknowledged and appreciated.

Right??????!!!!!!!!!

I do not think Carl was underappreciated when you read all the comments on most of the musicians he has worked with or was friend with It is just that he was not a show off as Mike Love who always wanted (and still wants) to be the focal point

Mike was the feet, he kept the band moving and without him they would have been content to sit on their ass for the last 35 years. He gets no respect, but Brian knows you need to take good care of your feet, because he's still cashing paychecks from MIke's endless touring. Why some fans feel the need to hate certain members is beyond me. Small minded thinking.

@@LyonsArcade Brian never needed Mike's money. He was already cashing checks constantly from "Good Vibrations" or the "Pet Sounds" album, as it was REALLY making bank a few years after initial release in the U.S. and almost immediately everywhere else. The Beach Boys didn't need to go on as long as they have been. They ran their course, and Mike was the only one ever publicly opposed to the idea of stopping, or at least as a touring band. Everyone else didn't seem to mind the idea, seeming it'd been a little more than 20 years that they were at it, and Brian was going through hell and back almost always. Maybe mention that the fans don't like Mike Love because he generally just didn't care for Brian's poor condition for so long, or the fact that he makes it clear he's a perverted old man with an ego, and doesn't hide it? Hell, he'll even gloat about being like that, sometimes. The beach Boys' as a touring band is a water logged corpse of a formerly amazing horse, that's being whipped constantly by Mike love, or should I say "The little douche coupe". He is an average singer at best, and that's all he's offered besides dumbing down Brian's work. Brian would make some big mistakes in his music on occasion, but he'd almost immediately go back to cranking out masterpiece by the dozens. (And not to mention, Capitol basically required him legally to make some of his less than favorable tunes.) Mike has only been keeping things rolling, because he knows the money will end for nobody involved but him, once it's finally over. He's not continuing it for the music, fans, or anything. It's for money, and having people to go "I'm better then you!" at, and make creepy jokes about cheerleading outfits, in front of. Mike is still a Beach Boy, nobody can deny that at least.... But that doesn't mean he's not worthless. He is. Enough said.

What’s the difference between heart, soul and spirit?

@@LyonsArcade you really found a way to twist things

Lol! You got that right!

@Patrick Trist he will be, those that know, know

@Patrick Trist - McCartney himself said Pet Sounds was a great album.

leokimvideo 👍.

@@rjjcms1 - What is that in English?

@@scootergeorge9576 Agreeing with the original comment,posted by leokimvideo.

It was....it was! I HAVE SEEN IT ALL ON TV AT THE TIME 33 YEARS AGO

It was better than it looks in these videos. The raw energy, the talent, the sheer positiveness and conviction of doing something good for the world. Every artist being played on the radio, on mtv, all of them, playing in one concert, going on in several places at once. To this day, still historic.

My voice teachers always said that smoking improves the voice. Look at Frank Sinatra.

Aaron Hagstrom It’s a deadly habit, but you have a point. I think Adele smokes. That’s one reason she sounds like she does.

Al jARDINE is the greatest singer in the world today because he didn't smoke

I so wish Carl could have quit, his death was a terrible loss. A beautiful person and a true professional to the end.

@@matthewclark7952 God only knows...

Same reaction for me. I was 20 watching on TV when this was going on, but I don't remember too many performances.

Yes! I love whenever he does that during a live performance of Good Vibrations.

Hahahahaha it is a nice add.

Love them and Love sounds great and looks great here

Weapons Education most modern albums

I really want to like the comment. But it's on 69 likes and I can't ruin that.

Yeah , 'couse it's a synphony

@Gus Woodgate Well it's way over 69 so it's been ruined for awhile. So get yo ass back here to this video and like the comment now.

Weapons Education, How Right You Are!

The glue that held together the gears of the Beach Boys.

@@andrewdevine3920 I agree with your comment except that you don't want gears to stick together. I would have gone with oil or WD-40. Carl kept the gears of the Beach Boys moving smoothly. Still completely agree with you though.

I heard he did play an instrumental role in getting rid of Eugene Landy and saving his brother Brian from his control.

Carl was the backbone of the Beach Boys, and I love him.

So why did they continue to be together after he was dead?

Javier Torres you wouldn’t think a heavy smoker would sing like that.

Carl should at least be in the Top 10 Greatest Singers of all time.

I don’t think he sang lead on the Good Vibrations single.

Incorrect. He did, indeed.

Feel Flows

Kinda like your spelling skills

@@moncorp1 Fuck off mate.

Old skool look at the documentary on RU-vid of this day. Its amazing that the American side even happened

moncorp1 Inc, he spelled nothing wrong. Go hate elsewhere.

@@kroakie4 organize?

That wasn't a falsetto. He was a natural tenor.

Saw them in concert late 70s/early 80s (would have to dig out the ticket stub). What I remember the most is this song and the audience participation. Blew my mind. I don't recall if Mike yammered while we all sang. I wish he hadn't here.

@@jmmlpn286 Mike earned the right to do whatever he pleased. He wrote the lyrics to what I think is one of the best songs of the 1960s and which is synonymous with the Beach Boys.

Dont take drugs. Biggist shit in history

Sideshow Bob Why?

@Sideshow BobPet Sounds influenced the Beatles to make Sgt. Pepper's. Their music is great to get into that 60s surf vibe.

True, man

albert weaver Definetly

He heard music differently i think then most people did

He probably didn't know where he was. I honestly don't know why they even kept dragging him around with them.

What BS. Have you heard of the Wrecking Crew?

@@saleasylum On the footage of the studio recording of Good Vibrations, there is a shot of Carl playing guitar. Check it out at ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uVlSVkzbJDA.html. It's at two minutes and seven seconds in.

@sternenkind Check the credits, most guitar parts are played by a session musician.

@sternenkind I agree with the notion that he played some guitar parts, but not that he played most of them.

@sternenkind One of the best guitarists? Come on, I can understand that you like the sound, but come on... You're exaggerating. Ringo was never complex. Ringo's playing is extremely simple, but has character. Lennon, again, wasn't the least bit impressive in his playing. None of The Beatles were impressive in their playing. Even Pink Floyd who weren't all that impressive in their playing themselves, compared to other bands, have Gilmour and Wright who are miles better than any member of The Beatles or The Beach Boys in terms of ability. Plus, a drummer's strength being able to hold a backbeat means that the drummer is just bad. Any kid, that's not completely lacking in rhythm, after a few lessons and practice, can hold a backbeat. I get that you maybe like the way they play, but let's just get a little perspective. Nothing they (and the Beatles) ever played themselves is or was impressive on a technical level.

The sound is almost perfect here. Terrific

Agreed. If you watch the Kennedy Center honors for Brian Wilson, there's a point where the entire audience gets up and starts clapping and dancing. It's really hard not to with a lot of Brian's music.

Was there, from Philly burbs. Miss JFK in general...

Yes, I was there that day as well. Saw them perform in front of the art museum steps for a July 4th concert the year they weren't invited back to DC to perform because it was feared that they would draw the "wrong element" to DC that day I remember President Ronald and Nancy Reagan being pretty upset about that and apologized to them for that screw up.

Im happy for you

And I have never seen anyone post a positive comment about Mike. What a douche. Still alive!

You ever see a positive post about Hateful Mikey? Mikey "Love." The original Douche Coupe! Matt Jardine, Alan's son, has about the best falsetto I've ever heard. PERIOD! Carl's was better! steve

Yes Denny too :(

Either have I. Mikey, not so much. steve

I've seen exactly 1 comment where someone put down Carl and whoever wrote it sounded like Carl stole his girlfriend or something. Can't remember what it said but something along the line that he was a poser, of some other stupid nonsense. But yeah, that's one negative comment in a sea of praise and positive comments about the man, and rightfully so!

I never liked Mike Love.

@@allanspence1347 Who does..?

Mike Hate is a douche bag !!!!!!!!!!

@@allanspence1347 I LOVE Mike Love.

@@flashfish2005 I LOVE Mike Love.

Time to get some Tommy Bahama!

That's the absolute truth .

They would be NOTHING without Brian

@@PantonePapi Carl carried them when playing live for sure. In the studio, it was Brian

notbenny you don’t get to the stage without the studio

@@PantonePapi yeah but this is a live video so they're commenting on the live performance lmao

@@greatcitysportaction2289 Everyone but John Stamos. Although he has heart

He looks great here too!!

Yes

i wish i was born in your generation i will gladly trade all the autotune for a live concert of the beach boys

The Unknown I felt so fortunate that I saw all three of the Wilson brothers. Although it was after their 1960s heyday (I was too young for that), it was before the deaths of Carl and Dennis, and during the time when Brian was VERY RARELY touring.

I think, but not sure, if that's Brian's mentalist (Landy) way off to the right of the stage?

talented legendary gold players..

It’s fine

"In My Put" "Golfer Girl" "Par, Par, Par" Kiss Me, Caddie" "This Hole World" "Don't Go near the Sand" "Good-Good Viberations" "Little Birdie" "golfer club"

The beach boys are are the best vocal band ever

With incredible musical talent and some of the best harmonies ever.

His big bro maybe ;)

@@billshank6266 Just Brian

yes. Harry Nilsson

Half of the Beatles, half of Queen, or really any decent male vocalist.

Those Bee-Gees weren’t too shabby with the falsetto, but I love both.

The not-Mike Love faction should never bend. Mike Love is a douchenozzle that basically stole the group. He was a co-vocalist, that's it. Barely played anything, wrote even less, and mostly leeched off the success. Why would anybody bend to that tool?

Nice. Dennis’s “Forever” is very underrated (though still probably the most well known of his songs, in my opinion the best songwriter in the group after Brian), it was so nice to see them pay tribute to him with it (same with Carl and God Only Knows)

@@charliestoops8815 "Forever" was indeed Dennis' signature piece but my favorites were "The River Song" and "Baby Blue." I truly appreciate your opinion of Dennis' song writing skills as being second only to Brian's brilliance. Thank You Charlie! RIP Denny and Carl...

Of course! “Baby Blue” is a great song, same with “River Song” from Pacific Ocean Blue, far and away the best solo album but out by a Beach Boy and one of the most underrated of the 1970s, it’s a favorite of mine. My favorite Dennis song is probably “(Wouldn’t It Be Nice to) Live Again”, an outtake from the Surf’s Up sessions that was eventually released in the 2010s. Great tune, the extended version on the channel “Big Joe’s Beach Boys” I highly recommend.

KacioRMX heck yeah you’re right

@@greatcitysportaction2289 He had perfect pitch , I understand.

Always

Miss him the most!!

Is he the one in the beard, guitar and long hair singing most of it?

He's sporting his Michael McDonald look here.

Me too❤

That's what The Beach Boys would do to your (our) emotions. Their music was Happy, Happy in the early years 1961 thru 1965. Then through the Brilliant (I would say Genius) mind of Brian's song writing their musical journey turned, mostly, into a deeper and more soulful introspection of "Our Collective Human Condition." Bittersweet and Joyful all mixed into one. Like yourself @Midnight Blue, I have often found myself with those same tears of emotion streaming down my face as well. My Favorite Band of all time, The Beach Boys! RIP Beautiful Dennis and Angelic Carl.

You've never heard of the Beatles?

The Beatles didn’t exist in 1985

@@jacobpullen6949 Paul McCartney performed Let it Be so close enough.
