    Wow!!! I never saw this or heard the final version, but I worked on the music pre records on ALL but the first 3or 4 Shows at United Western on Sunset. I have nothing but love for both of them, Toni's sisters ( all the Dragons !!! ) and how they did their work /art. I worked setting up the big recording room with a BIG Hollywood show band every week. Then Roger Young and I would record everything with the great support from our maintenance department! Respects to J & J Barnes, Putnam, fisher, Ed Perry , Kulka, Boatner. Musical director was Lenny Stack ? All nighters mixing music tracks then, crack of dawn, we would hand off our work for the VIDEO pre record. Interestingly enough, I assisted for Dennis Dragon all weekend on a Johnny Rivers record in studio 3 . That is another story. Thank you for posting the video. Hello, Toni, if you're out there.

  • @timford3599

    This Beach Boys Christmas song is my FAVORITE holiday song "This Time Each Year" and I have to say that the Tennille Sisters do within 99.9% of the Boys version. Toni really nails Mike's bass inflection which gives it that Hook with a Nice Punch to it! As I remember, 1976 was about the time that "Beach Boys: Love You" came out and the voices (for the most part, not all) had changed an octave (or two) so it was refreshing to hear "L.S.N." done with bright harmonic voices. BTW, that last comment is in no way meant to disparage the album "Love You" as it has been one of my favorites from Brian and "da Boys" for well over 40+ years.😎

    Back in 1972 Toni Tennille and the Captain, before they were married or had an act called Ythe Captain and Tennille, played keyboard and electric piano with The Beach Boys on tour and in the studio. Shortly after that they started their career together.

    • @Mister_Pedantic
      @Mister_Pedantic 4 года назад +1

      When Toni Tennille became famous she went around telling anyone who would listen that she was "the first and only 'Beach Girl'" and I have wondered why she isn't mentioned at all in the book, "Heroes and Villains: The True Story of the Beach Boys".

    The family is from Auburn, AL. True southern girls. After the Captain and Tennile had peaked and Toni was touring with symphony orchestras, I pitched Toni on the idea of “going country,’ much like Reba and Emmylou at the time, and Carrie Underwood today. Daryl, “the Captain,” was all for it, Toni balked. I guess we’ll never know if my suggestion would have worked.

      They were definitely a reason to watch the show which always either tied second place or achieved a 3 way tie in the slot.
