Here's a photo of Andy Paley and Jerry Lee Lewis from circa 1995. Andy produced Jerry Lee's 1995 album, Young Blood:

OK, this is getting ridiculous... Happy 76th Birthday to Marilyn Rovell Wilson Rutherford, born February 6, 1948!

Can you imagine your first wife's birthday, your second marriage anniversary, and the date of your brother's death all falling on the same day? Easy to remember, I guess, but talk about conflicting feelings.

I knew I could count on you to post the BB's version(s). Any idea who would have been playing flute on the live version? Charles Lloyd perhaps? I was wondering the same thing! I think Charles Lloyd's quartet had broken up by that time (1968) and he was freelancing and playing with various bands. He was even touring with the Grateful Dead. While it wouldn't surprise me if Charles had already been acquainted with The Beach Boys - especially Mike Love through TM - it might've been a little early for him to be performing with he band. But, hey, I don't know. Maybe it was him. I, um, posted this question down the road apiece and Ian Rusten (bless him) told me the flautist was probably part of the (anonymous) eight-piece horn section led by John D'Andrea, who had hired them in the UK for that European tour. Charles Lloyd wasn't there and as Cap'n says probably hadn't become friends with Mike yet. It's on page 122 of Ian and Jon's concert book, which I should have looked at first (it was propping up other BB books!). I see on the next page that there's also film of the group fooling around on bumper cars in Brighton. Maybe one of their cars was the one I sat in three years earlier!

Appreciate the contact and research.

Not a bad bill, also including The Left Banke.
But if I'm not mistaken, fans wanting to see TLB would not have seen principal songwriter and keyboardist Michael Brown (nee Lookofsky). I'm not sure how thorough his insistence was, but I know he did not want to tour--and I believe he simply refused to do so. He was out of the band sometime during later 1967.
Edit - I should have mentioned why I mention this: as I recall hearing it, the reason Brown didn't want to tour was that he was taking inspiration from one Brian Douglas Wilson. He apparently wanted a similar role for himself in the Left Banke. At least that is what I recall hearing: if somebody knows better, by all means, say so. (This is just in my mind as general knowledge, but I don't recall from where I learned it, much less whether it's true.)

FEBRUARY 27 The 27th session for "Heroes and Villains" in 1967. It would take another six sessions to complete it
According to AGD's Bellagio site, it was "Part Two" (worked on at Western), which presumably included all or part of the following: I see said site makes that another seven sessions so I've altered it accordingly...

Oh, how I wish Brian could've pulled it all together for that particular song in 1966-67.
