Beach Boys Concert--June 14, 1988

Valley Forge Music Fair, Devon, PA
June 14, 1988

The contributor comments: "This show is special as it marks one of the last shows in the pre-Kokomo era of the group. John Stamos is on percussion on this show, much to the delight of many screaming girls during the show. The big treat on this show is the short outing during the 1988 tour of "This Whole World." As far as I know, other than Brian Wilson resurrecting the song during his 1999 tour, this is the only time it was performed live by The Beach Boys, and even during this tour it didn't survive long in the set list. It's a great live version, with a great lead vocal from Carl. It is included in a mini-medley of three songs that include "California Dreamin'", "This Whole World", and "Don't Worry Baby." Each song is played in full, but they are strung together with no pause in between. "Hushabye" and "Wendy" are also rare treats. As usual, Jeff Foskett takes the lead for "Little GTO" as well as portions of "Don't Worry Baby" and "Hushabye.""
