This is a rather rough video, but it may be the first I've seen of the Beach Boys playing Wouldn't it be Nice in a live situation. It appears Dennis is using a Rogers Londoner in a strata finish. You will note that he has a good shuffle going.

65 mil records..THAT long ago?>>Wow....
Wikipedia:
The Beach Boys have sold in excess of 100 million records worldwide
Beatles: Total available certified units: 264.9 million
The kit sounded great, but I thought he was a Camco endorser.
Heard the Beats sold over 1 Billion records!
Wasn't there a Beach Boys album cover with him playing a Rogers kit?
He was a Camco endorser. I don't think he endorsed any other kits, but used Gretsch in the early years, moved to Rogers, then combined the Gretsch and Rogers kits, eventually endorsed Camco - no doubt they got him on board in an effort to increase their market share; and then he seem to go back to Rogers when he began using larger kits again.
Love that "Do You Remember" shot of the Camco's with all Rogers hardware and spurs.
