I'm in the minority but it just seemed like he had a good concept that got lost in creation and there are a ton of pointless scenes. A bunch of extreme sub-tarantino dialogue. It was very pretty tho.

Couldn't find anything but didn't realise he wrote it with John Phillips of the Mamas and Papas nice that was probably right around the time he was smoking crack with his teenage daughter before he had s***with her

so in 1978 there’s this infamous missing puzzle in the bb history where brian disappeared for a few days

he left his home and a few days later, he was found way down in san diego in pretty ugly bad shape and so what happened during those days remained absolutely unknown to anyone for decades

but around 2015 some fan that found brian during this disappearance finally shared his story with some unseen photos to back it up

so for context here’s this piece from a beach boys book from 1986 that shed some light on it:

JB and his brother were spending a few days in san diego, there from the east coast, and boom of all things they found the one and only brian wandering down the street, imagine the odds as a fan

brian was staying at a fortune teller lady house who was giving him marijuana.. ofc

JB an his brother were beach boys fanatics so they invited brian to join them for dinner that night.

they went to a mexican restaurant in la jolla n they had margarita pitchers and talked about the smile tapes.

after dinner they went back home where brian played on their piano “california feeling” - a new more gospel song he was working on during that era that was gonna be on a beach boys album and be the album title but he backed out i forgot why but for some odd reason, song never was used or saw the light of the day until 2013 in this career boxset:

he played that and well you guessed it the infamous shortenin’ bread jam that i already mentioned above

brian played some more songs, drank a lot of beer and started crying about never measuring up to phil spector 😔😔 @Elric

it sounds wholesome out it that way, from the fan perspective - what a trip! but from brian, the genuis and most beloved artist to suddenly disappear los angeles and roaming all the way down to san diego to be helped by a lady who gave him weed and end up in some fan house singing on the piano and crying... it’s heartbreaking..

“In an interview on the Michael Shelly radio show on WFMU, Al Jardine just mentioned/confirmed that July 23rd is indeed the release date for the Feel Flows box set. The show is just airing now, but I believe it can be listened to later on the WFMU archives site: https://www.wfmu.org/recentarchives.php”

I think it’s supposed to cover 1969-1971

So yes
