x
1
  A benefit concert for Cambodian Relief.
2
  Dennis & Christine McVie were scheduled to appear at this Cambodian relief benefit
  show, but cancelled at the last moment.
3
  This was a session to overdub additional instruments on to the original late 60s recordings.
4
  A presidential campaign benefit for George Bush Sr.
5
  A documentaryof the making of KTSA which included a writing session for "Goin' To The
  Beach". Dennis is conspicuous by his absence: no-one so much as mentions him.
6
  WAVES - Western Audio-Visual Entertainment Services - was the old LoveSongs mobile
  studio installed in Mike's Santa Barbara house.
7
  Dennis returns to the drum stool.
8
  Filmed and recorded (and heavily overdubbed and sweetened) for a proposed video
  album, this show was also broadcast on London Capital Radio - not live, but in an
  undubbed state.
9
  Also filmed and recorded (and equally 'enhanced'), this show was broadcast in shortened
  form in October: however it was broadcast live on FM radio in the Washington area. The
  contrast between the 'raw' and sweetened version is considerable.
10
  Brian & Mike spent a week at Mike's studio recording these songs. "I'm A Man" is a BW
  song, not the Spencer Davis classic. This version of "Be My Baby" formed the basis of
  the track featured on Mike's 1981 solo album. Brian produced these sessions.
11
  The legendary interview with Joan Lunden: Dennis was totally wasted and unable to either
  sit still or upright, while Brian was doing his best 'deer-in-the-headlights' impression. A
  publicity disaster. It's on youtube.
12
  The band performed a hits medley: Brian was there but Dennis refused to play a surf
  medley and Clem Burke, the drummer for Blondie, stepped in.
13
  The band - with Dennis, but not Brian - played live on Waikiki beach. The date is an
  informed guess: Douglas taped from Dec 10-14 in Hawaii so based their on touring
  schedule the 10th seems the best fit.
14
  Brian was present at the ceremony, Dennis wasn't. The Beach Boys star is currently
  located at 1500 Vine Street.
