The Beach Boys

In November 1997, The Beach Boys delivered a rousing live performance of "Kokomo" in Evansville, Indiana. This was during a period when they were co-headlining with the legendary band Chicago, showcasing their enduring appeal. Just two years prior, they released the album "Stars and Stripes Vol. 1" in 1996, which featured reimagined Beach Boys classics sung by various artists. This live recording captures a moment when the band was celebrating their legacy while still engaging with new collaborations. Despite the challenges faced in the 1980s and early 90s, including lineup changes and varying commercial success, they had found a resurgence in appreciation during the 90s, which was truly evident in this lively setting.
