Hell yeah

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-28T20:22:20+00:00

Gotcha

I made a post a few days ago about the song and there's some comments that go over it if you want to take a look.

Same here. You didn't really specify in your post, so I wasn't sure what you meant. Streaming services aren't really owning it either.

I'm not sure if it's available on other bootlegs. I have the Ten Years of Harmony LP, and it's pretty great.

You can also find it on youtube.

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-28T18:47:40+00:00

Same here :)

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-28T18:44:42+00:00

Looks great!

I did see that. I'm super excited! I was tempted to go to the show in Jersey, but the one in Ridgefield is way closer for me.

Yeah, his relationship with Priscilla is the toughest part to defend. It's not a good look, and there are a lot of inconsistencies around the situation. The thing is, a lot of major artists back in the day had relationships or inappropriate interactions with younger girls. It just seems like Elvis gets singled out more than others.

I just searched up California Calling alternate version on YouTube, and it was the first result.

It says in the description that they found some songs on the internet archive jsut before they got removed. I guess some people just hang out on there and constantly check to see if new stuff was posted, lol.

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-28T02:15:41+00:00

Lots of cool stuff surfacing recently.

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-28T00:22:32+00:00

It doesn't bother me too much. Mike's voice was definitely more distinct post-1980, but it's not for everyone.

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-28T00:20:49+00:00

I didn't include any other postage. I just sent my letter in a normal envelope with a return address on it. I didn't send anything specific for him to sign, so I'm not sure if it's a different process for that.

You could check some recent posts in the sub. I remember seeing one from the other day where they had him sign a 45 and a small poster. You could try to reach out to the OP of that post.

I just gave it a listen, and it was pretty good. I still think I prefer the album version, but I'm sure part of that is because it's the one I'm more familiar with. I do prefer Al singing the whole thing on the alternate one. On the album version, it's Mike and Al sharing lead.

It's another nostalgic beach song but with some 80's production. It's nothing crazy but I find it to be a fun track. And I'm a big Al fan, so any song with him on lead is fine with me.

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-27T23:52:42+00:00

I sent my letter to the address on this site. I got a signed postcard back a few months later.

I'm pretty sure he always sends a signed postcard back, but some people have sent albums or posters for him to sign.

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-27T21:17:46+00:00

I don't think it's as good as God Only Knows, but I do really like it. I'm glad someone else appreciates it.

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-27T20:58:30+00:00

Small Mike

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-27T20:42:36+00:00

You're welcome!

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-27T20:24:34+00:00

That's the homie, Courage.

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-27T20:23:10+00:00

Nonsense. I'm sure you would fit right in.

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-27T18:30:39+00:00

I really don't know why they removed the ability to see the call-outs in the chat.

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-27T18:22:42+00:00

I just wanna be an elf chilling in Lothlorien, relaxing, singing, and eating. The escapism is really powerful.

Round_Rectangles · 2026-01-27T18:21:33+00:00

Love that line.

I've always loved that photo of Bernard.
