It’s still around 90 at 11 PM by the Tiki Bar. The pool’s jumped up to 86, and I’m in the mood for some summer music.
Here’s a little variation on an old theme. I love this YouTube clip of country star Lorrie Morgan backed by the Beach Boys on “Don’t Worry, Baby”. It also features one of the last video appearances by Carl Wilson; hard to believe he’s been gone for ten years now.
…And how about this lovely a capella version of “Forever”, featuring Dennis Wilson on lead and brother Brian on the back high harmony. Hard to find vocals sung with such passion, yet in such a subtle way anymore.
Enjoy and crank then up!
I had not heard this before…how sweet and lovely. What cd is this on???? Every time I see pictures of Dennis, my heart just breaks. I had the worst crush on him and maybe still do. I wonder, “what if he hadn’t died”?

Hi Jana –
Don’t know where the a capella version came from – it’s obviously the cut from “Sunflower” with the musical accompaniment mixed out. A great song – Dennis’ best I think.
