You know, The Beach Boys' image is kinda like a group Doris Day, you know what I mean?

Records... a record just shouldn't be that important.
Bruce Johnston

For us... you know, we're not The Beatles.
Bruce Johnston

We're not trying to top ourselves with each record, obviously.
Bruce Johnston

I really dig the scene that's happening now, I really do, because there might be a lot of bad things going on, but if out of all of those bad things ten per cent of the groovy part of it stays, wow... you can't beat that.
Bruce Johnston

Well, a lot of our concerts do okay, and I know we still get royalty checks which still isn't that important, but again, I have to just say that we're making our records.
Bruce Johnston

We are a business, and you do a little of what you think's right, pay your bills, and attract... a single record attracts attention to your concerts and your albums.
Bruce Johnston

The group started getting bigger and bigger, so Al started replacing Brian on the road, and then finally there was a big flare-up with Dave Marks and he left the group.
