4.0 out of 5 stars Not the last of the original 3 but a great performance, November 21, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Live Knebworth 1980 (Audio CD)

This is a great cd, but the Editorial Reviews/Album Details section on the amazon page which credit this as "The Last Ever Live Performance from the Original Lineup that Includes all Three Wilson Brothers on Stage Together" is false. I myself saw the Beach Boys do a new years eve concert at the forum in Los Angeles on 12/31/1980 and can attest with assurance that Carl, Brian and Dennis (the 3 Wilson Bros.) were all on stage and all performing for the whole show. In addition there were many other shows in the early 80's (I've seen 15 Beach Boy related concerts in my lifetime) which included all three. There were times with Brian missing and a brief time with Carl missing and Dennis had yet to be "kicked out" so there were times when all three were there. Regardless this is a great sounding cd, but one should be aware of that false claim.

4.0 out of 5 stars not quite the last..., December 30, 2002

In response to the other review, this isn't the last time the original line-up performed together, as it has been marketed, but the inside blurb says that it is the last time they played together IN ENGLAND. which is good enough for me.
As for the CD, it's surprisingly good. I was a few months from being born when it was recorded, and the Beach Boys were way past their peak, but it's still good. Best bit? Brian Wilson's verse in Surfer Girl...

4.0 out of 5 stars Read the Editor Again, Boys, March 2, 2003

This review is from: Live Knebworth 1980 (Audio CD)

It says last ever RECORDING of the original line-up. Or perhaps it should read last ever OFFICIALLY RELEASED RECORDING.
