This album is a ditigal clone of "Good Vibrations" - Fabbri Editori, I Miti Del Rock Live – 60.
This Oil Well version has a fine cover, fine quality. Limited to 200 copies only.
Due to its rarity and good quality, this disc is recommended. We say it here but this will also apply to other bootlegs released by this label: in many cases Oil Well will make a series of collections of live songs from different concerts and much of this material at the time of publication (1991-1995) was already available in official and legally released material. In this case in the bootleg there are two live tracks already released in 1970 on the famous Live in London. Read below for more informations!
Recommended song: Barbara Ann,Their Hearts Were Full Of Spring and Help me Rhonda.

Live in London

Live in London is a live album by American rock band the Beach Boys released by EMI in the UK in May 1970. When released in the US on November 15, 1976, the album was renamed Beach Boys '69 (The Beach Boys In London) via Capitol Records. The album was produced by Carl Wilson and Stephen Desper

1968 was a difficult year for The Beach Boys at home, where their reputation had soured considerably, yet their European success was still strong, as evidenced by these confident performances recorded while the group were making their 20/20 album. After the surprise success of the Endless Summer and Spirit of America hits packages in 1974 and 1975, the Beach Boys enjoyed a resurgence of popularity at home, especially on the concert circuit. It was during this time that Capitol decided to strike while the iron was hot and issue a renamed edition of the album for the first time in the US. The reissue had art by rock artist Jim Evans, and a new title, Beach Boys '69. Besides the fact that the live performance was actually recorded in December 1968, the LP's appearance added confusion to the marketplace as the group had recently issued a new, live double album—The Beach Boys in Concert—on their own Brother Records label, as part of a distribution deal with their new label, Reprise. Despite this, the record became a small chart success in the US, following the Top 10 placing of 15 Big Ones, reaching #75 in the Fall of 1976 during a US chart stay of 10 weeks. The UK edition failed to chart.

It is believed that The Beach Boys owed Capitol one more album (this may have been it, instead of the Fading Rock Group Revival/Reverberation project), and so, this release ended their relationship with the record label, and with EMI in the UK. When their albums were remastered for CD in 1990 (and again in 2001), Live in London was paired with their 1964 live release Beach Boys Concert.

The Grateful Dead Jammed With The Beach Boys At Fillmore East
On April 27th, 1971, the Grateful Dead was smack-dab in the middle a run at the Fillmore East in New York City spanning from April 25th through 29th. The Dead had some surprises up their sleeve for the Tuesday performance, inviting The Beach Boys (consisting of Mike Love, Carl Wilson, Bruce Johnston, and Al Jardine) to join them for a short string of songs toward the end of their set. The Beach Boys, who were introduced as “another famous California group” to the surprise of the crowd, came out for “Searchin'” during the second set following “Dire Wolf.” Together, the two popular and wildly different bands moved into a cover of The Robins’ “Riot In Cell Block #9.”

The Dead then departed the stage, leaving the Beach Boys to play out their classic tracks “Good Vibrations” and “I Get Around.”
It’s a silly and delightful interlude in the recording with giggling at the start of “Good Vibrations” showcasing the lighthearted-nature of the evening.
“If we start another song, maybe they’ll come back out and join us,” starts the next song, with the Dead eventually returning to the stage during the number. Together the two bands now on stage teamed up for renditions of Merle Haggard’s “Okie From Muskogee” and Chuck Berry’s “Johnny B. Goode,” but not before a chaotic tuning session during which the members on stage confirm that the appearance was unplanned and that they’re trying to get things figured out.

It was a one-of-a-kind performance, during which two popular bands that have come to define those times in very different ways came together and clearly had a good time. Audio from the Dead’s Fillmore East run was released officially on the 2000 release of Ladies and Gentlemen… The Grateful Dead, though none of the Beach Boy collaborations made the cut.

Saturday, November 21, 1964: Koncerthuset, Stockholm, Sweden-with Jackie de Shannon, Jan Rohde & the Wild Ones and the Mascots (8:00 PM Show)
Following their return trip to France, the Beach Boys headed to Sweden for more promotion.On November 21, the group performed their second and last live concert of the tour at the Koncerthuset. The show was simulcast on the radio as well. According to Earl Leaf, the Swedish audiences received the Beach Boys very well. “During the performance gaggles of girls ran up on the stage to grab their favorite, wrenching Carl Wilson’s neck, tearing Brian Wilson’s shirt, biting Alan Jardine’s cheek and grabbing Mike’s legs, almost toppling him to the floor. When one Swede-heart hurled herself at Dennis Wilson and sent his drum sticks flying, he has to finish the show beating the skins with his bare hands.

"The reviewer for the Stockholm newspaper Aftonbladet was more enamored by Jackie de Shannon and wrote, “Beach Boys and Jackie de Shannon was the subject for Saturday night’s usually dapper pop show at Koncerthuset.

But a reversed playing order would have been fairer. Jackie…really got the show to take off. Despite a fever and a bad cold, she was on her own radiating more electricity than all five Beach Boys together.” The next day, the Beach Boys headed off to Copenhagen, Denmark for a “quickie holiday."
