The Beach Boys - A Celebration Concert July 4t....
From better times, The Beach Boys performing a live concert to a crowd of 400,000 in Washington DC on July 4th 1980. Dennis and Carl Wilson were still around, and it was surprising to see self taught drummer, Dennis Wilson, sit in at the piano for 'Help Me Rhonda."
FYI - Glen Campbell was a session musician with the Wrecking Crew, the studio musicians who did studio recordings with the Beach Boys and countless other artists of the time. He briefly went on to tour with the Beach Boys for a few months in 1964-1965. Daryl Dragon (AKA Captain) also toured with the Beach Boys for 7 years, and Toni Tennille, his future wife, played electric piano with them as the only "Beach Girl" during their 1972 tour, after he introduced them to her. (If you want try putting a little excitement into your dog's life, look up the 1976 cover of 'Muskrat Love' by the Captain & Tennille and see if you get a reaction. My sister had an Irish Setter that would get pretty excited when Muskrat Love played over the radio.)
