   Hi,   
      
   Okay, don't make the same mistake I did.....here's the full title:   
      
   "Wouldn't it Be Nice, Brian Wilson and The Making of the Beach Boy's Pet   
   Sounds"   
      
   Recently, a friend said he found this book for 50 cents, so he bought it for   
   me. I quickly glanced at the title and, of course, thought it was "WIBN -   
   The BW Biography". Thanking him for his kindness, I'd said I read it, that   
   it was a thoughtful gesture and the price was right. After he left, I was   
   doing a few things around the house and picked it up to move to the   
   bookcase. In doing so, I looked at it to see if it was updated, new photo   
   plates, etc. Then....Hello?...I realised it was a completely different book!   
   (Printed 2003, forward by Tony Asher, etc.) The Author is Charles L   
   Granata - Published by: A Cappella Books.   
      
   I haven't started it, but when the heck did this come out? As I'm a   
   'Completist', I would have bought it anyway but I'd sure like some   
   impressions if anyone here has read it.   
      
   What a nice little surprise!
