* - in the film 'The Hurricane', which has one of the greatest "Special Effects" scenes of all time (decades pre-CGI) as its climax - LsA / Click on Link above, left, to view the incredible/ relentless special effects on the climactic "hurricane sequence" of this overlooked film (for you impatient types - it starts about 2:15 in). // One Youtube comment sums it up: "Thanks for posting this incredible sequence. It really is the one to show people who assume everything before CGI was primitive and cheesy. When done by masters, these effects are more convincing than CGI, imo. ... ... Kudos to the fantastic craftspeople who created this sequence, which is still jaw-dropping 80+ years after its creation."

The set lists were very democratic, with each member of the band taking the lead in turn. // This will be their first official release - click on the Link above, left to read about this release
Their second #1 hit in the UK / * Wilson has stated that this is the BEST song collboration that he and Love had. Love: "He starts pounding at the piano, I came up with some words and we got a chorus together, basically a bunch of doo-wop-inspired harmonies - we created thsat whole song in 15 minutes."
In 1994, this album was voted # THREE in Colin Larkin's "All Time Top 1000 Albums", a book which surveyed the general public alongside hundreds of critics, musicians, record producers, songwriters, radio broadcasters, and music enthusiasts.
