INDEPENDENCE DAY PARTY 1981
by BEACH BOYS, THE
Vinyl Double Album

PARA091LP

Label: PARACHUTE

DELUXE VINYL EDITION!!!
First off, you can’t fault the line-up; all 5 original members (Brian, Carl, Dennis, Al & Mike) plus early recruit Bruce Johnston, who, on Independence Day 1981, got together for a beautifully laid back and hugely enjoyable show. This broadcast recording of the entire Beach Boys’ set finds the group on good form, clearly delighted to have Brian back playing live. 70's gem ‘Sail On Sailor’ feature's alongside the great and good, and the whole run through is nothing if not the band at their late period best - not long before we would never witness Dennis Wilson again on the drums for this quite superb collective.
