      From: y2613@sympatico.ca              a joke? hmmm. i think the real joke is that you can't find a listing for       SMiLE on any of the charts on billboard. but you can find "the very best of       the beach boys: sounds of summer" at position number 93 this week after a 16       week run.              for those of us who still have a massive collection of vinyl and cd singles       etc of Beach Boys, related items, BW, surf, pop, and Beatles, a SMiLE piece       would be desirable. and a promo piece for this cd from a radio station, even       more.       i have items that hard core collectors never knew existed. i collected them       during my years of doing record shows in north america and europe.       i'm always adding.              so before any old timer or young pup, who think they are know it alls in       this newsgroup, pass judgement on a posting, perhaps there is a reason       behind my questioning.              now, apart from my hobby, i absolutely love this cd. the radio stations are       promoting the concert here, however, i have not heard a cut played on the       air since it's release. i know radio stinks these days, but it would be nice       to see if SMiLE could slip through the cracks and end up with radio play.       just to satisfy the BB/BW freak in me.              - a very private collector.                                                                      "JYOB" |
