The SMS Trivia Question of the Week 8 / 2…

L. to R. Carl, Mike, Al, Brian, Dennis.

“Surfs Up” And It is time for the all new SMS Trivia Quiz for Tuesday, August 2nd. Brought to us each week by all the very groovey people over at  Omnivore Recordings! Your perfect spot for all the music you didn’t know, you didn’t know! Meanwhile, as there was no Trivia Quiz last week, we have no “Winners” to acknowledge and thank! However we do want to thank all of you who weathered last weeks issue and returned here to join in once more…Thank You, one and all!

Because, it’s now time for the new SMS Trivia question for Tuesday August 2nd: Around this time of year each summer, our favorite Satellite radio network “Sirius X M”introduces “Good Vibrations” a channel dedicated 24 / 7 to the music and lives of the Fabulous Beach Boys! To celebrate our new favorite Satellite station, we believe it’s only right to dedicate this weeks question to The Beach Boys! Let’s begin by asking what name did the band originally go by before deciding on “The Beach Boys”? Additionally who were “The Honeys ? And what  does the slang term “Honeys” refer to? One of The Honeys married Brian Wilson… which one? Additionally, Which early Beach Boys classic references “Some Honeys” ?  Now, to wrap things up, here is our Beach Boy question: as many of you know, among The Beach Boys incredible repertoire, you’ll find that “Lead Singer duties were principally handled by Brian Wilson and Mike Love…However on rare occasion Carl Wilson, Dennis Wilson and Al Jardine took a turn as “Lead Singer” Here’s where you come in…Give us the title to at least one Beach Boy classic Where Dennis Wilson sang “Lead”? Next give us the title to at least one Beach Boy classic where Carl Wilson sang “Lead”? Lastly, give us the title of at least one Beach Boy classic where Al Jardine sang “Lead?

In summary, here’s what we need:

1) What name did The Beach Boys use until they settled on “The Beach Boys” ?

2) Who were “The Honeys ?

3) What does the slang term “Honeys” refer to ?

4) Brian Wilson married one of The Honeys…Which one ?

5) Which early Beach Boys classic references “Some Honeys” ?

6) Give us the title to at least one Beach Boy classic where Dennis Wilson sang lead ?

7) Give us the title to at least one Beach Boy classic where Carl Wilson sang the lead vocal ?

8) Give us the title to at least one Beach Boy classic where Al Jardine sang the lead vocal ?

Yeah, that’s a whole lotta questions, but we wanted to make up for last week and we know “You can handle it!…Can’t ya ?

      Good to see you up early! One comment in regard to which Early Beach Boys song makes a reference to “Honeys? Yeah “Wild Honey kinda dances around it but we believe there is a more “precise reference to “Honeys in a much earlier huge hit single from the BB’s! Got another one?
