SF's and LA's weather gonna beautiful for the next week!

Fake drumming? Fake everything when bands "fake" performed to pre-recorded tracks - typically the record they were promoting. Since you asked, I watched the drummer/lead singer and he actually syncs the recording's very simple drum part very well. Some bands would mock the pretense of syncing to their record by temporarily stop pretending to play, and laugh at how the music kept going... an acknowledgement of how phony and embarrassing the ploy was to begin with. But not here. This was a relatively sincere attempt to look like they were performing live.

Great 60s summer record by the way. And the actual track (produced by Murray Wilson) rivals early Beach Boys in vocal performance and sonic quality. I love this record.

The best audio transfer of the original song available on You Tube:

Emily Nokes and Anna Minard are blending into the same person for me. Like they are lip-synching one another.

Hilarious!

Fantastic stuff.

sunshine day!

Ahem. The SunRays were not from the Sunshine State. They were from the Golden State. There's a difference, y'know.

But you still get credit for correctly spelling Murry.

As I recall, the Sunrays were an instant band that the record company (and Mr. Wilson) ginned up to scare the Beach Boys when they were having some sort of contract dispute ("See? Youse can be replicated quite easily!").

On Monday it was 87 degrees here in Central WA.

Yup in the 80s here near the beach.



October is often our hottest month of the year inLos Angeles.



Tourists take note.

Murry Wilson (who was a violent monster) was fired by his son, Brian Wilson. So Murry tried to start a new Beach Boys band. The Sunrays had one good song, and that's it. After that Murry Wilson would sometime barge in drunk in the recording studio of the Beach Boys, embarrassing and psychologically torturing his sons. None of his children came to his funeral. There's actually a bootleg of this.

@9 - But 2Pac called it the Sunshine State and he's the only authority on state nicknames I think.
