I really love these guys. There is nothing like actually watching people as they make such music, all of the bits and pieces we've been hearing in the last 50+ years but have been unable to visualize. Thank you both Brian Wilson and the Fendertones.8 years ago

Where did you find all of the old ribbon mics?Wonderful seeing/hearing young people "in on" this. Music that isn't over-produced by computers.Gramma on the fiddle was cute too.9 years ago

I don't think a person can truly appreciate the COMPLEXITY of these Brian Wilson masterpieces until he (she) sees just what it takes to replicate every little nuance. I knew this was a difficult piece, with so many changes of pace, etc. throughout, but my gosh, un-freaking-believable ! You guys pulled it off !9 years ago
