A Beach Boys album that never got released will see the light of day next year in a live form. Brian Wilson began work on an album called 'Smile' in 1966 after the huge success of 'Pet Sounds'. The single 'Good Vibrations' was released at the time as an indicator of what fans could expect. But despite considerable studio sessions and a complete track list being supplied to EMI the album was never completed. The album 'Smiley Smile' was thrown together containing some of the tracks intended for the main album, and some tracks from the unfinished album later surfaced elsewhere. But now Wilson is promising to perform the album in full as it was originally intended at a series of live shows next year. Expect some sell outs. Those dates:
20-24 Feb: Royal Festival Hall, London
2 Mar: Colston Hall, Bristol
4 Mar: Clyde Auditorium, Glasgow
6 Mar: City Hall, Newcastle
7 Mar: Liverpool Empire
8 Mar: Symphony Hall, Birmingham
