Did Student Demonstration Time ruin this album?

Mike Love ruined it

Nah, it's a corny song but not nearly as bad as people make it out to be.

He ruins everything.

A great album can never be ruined by one song. There's times I've really joined Student Demonstration Time too. The pacing is a little wack.

>>68328903
I meant enjoyed not joined

Question about this album.

Was the version of Surf's Up on this recorded in 1970 with the rest of it? It sounds very different from the Smile Sessions one.

>>68328856
No, because I deleted it from my hard drive.

>>68328888
It is the worst song the Beach Boys have ever written.

Would this tracklist make a better album

1. DOn't go near the water
2. Long Promised Road
3. Sound of the Free
4. Disney Girls
5. Fourth of July
6. Free Flows
7. Barbra
8. A Day In the Life of A Tree
9. Awake
10. Wouldn't it Be Nice To Live Again

>>68329210
No, ending on "Surf's Up" is essential.

>>68329210
Also: you completely messed with the ending trio. "'Til I Die" isn't even present. It's the best Beach Boys song. What are you doing ?

>>68328888
this

>>68329210
>No Til I Die or Surf's Up
yeah no

fourth of july and wouldn't it be nice to live again would have been great on there though

Honestly, Till I die would be on the Sunflower double album

>>68329933
There is no justifiable reason for this.

>>68329178
Worse than summer of love? SDT is godawful lyrically but the music is passable blues rock. Summer of love is a hot shitpile all around.

The real question is why people bought this album but not Sunflower.

>>68329143
The lead vocal is from 1970 in the first half, the rest is '67

>>68330132
>Worse than summer of love?
Uninteresting songwriting.
Horrid timbres.
Bad lyrics.
Zany sound effects.

It's a complete mess.

>>68330157
Surf's Up has better songs.

>>68330215
Surf's Up has better songs.

Not really, no. Sounds like shit as well.

>>68330233
>Not really, no.
Okay. Surf's Up has:
Long Promised Road
Feel Flows
A Day In The Life Of A Tree
'Til I Die
Surf's Up
>Sounds like shit
...

What are the heavy hitters that Sunflower brings to the table?

>>68329961
What about if SMiLE came out, thus no Surfs up on the album, you idiot!

>>68330325
A hypothetical does not qualify as "justifiable" to me.

>>68330364
You're a fucking cunt you know that?

IDK why people don't like Student demonstration time....there's a riiiot goin on!

>>68330581
>never heard Arbua,Bahama Come on Pretty Mama featuring John Stamos.
Kokomo is a good song.

>>68329178
>It is the worst song the Beach Boys have ever written.

Want me to make it worse?

They didn't write it. It's a shitty cover and Mike wrote new lyrics for it.

>>68328856
Wtf is up with that album art. How can an album called "surf's up" by the beach boys feature some demonic looking thing being depressed on a horse?

>>68328856
Actually that's one of my favorite Beach Boys songs of all time.

>>68331329
Same with Kokomo, only Mike made it ''better''

Well I don't see how you cou-

>They didn't write it. It's a shitty cover and Mike wrote new lyrics for it.
I guess it was pretty obvious that it was a cover, but wow. So little changed and yet it sounds so much worse.

>>68331367
Surf's Up AKA Surf's Over AKA The Happy Times Are Done

>>68331419
That doesn't really count, Mike cowrote that with John and some other people FOR the Beach Boys.

SDT is literally a completely different song written for and recorded by a different band from like 20 years before.

yes

>>68328856
I've never heard this album, but it always cracks me up

>Surf's Up
>The Beach Boys
>Some fucking impaled guy on the cover that's drawn pretty much entirely with cold colours

>>68334366
he's not impaled, he's carrying that trident

>>68334394
Oh, well it still looks depressing as fuck for an album called Surf's Up

>>68334428
That's because the album is depressing as fuck

>>68334739
making it all the more hilarious that mikes shitty loud cover is in the middle of it

Take A Load Off Your Feet is the best song on that album
