KC Vibrations

The Beach Boys were in Kansas City on Wednesday to do some recording. No, they weren't making a new album, just a jingle for a Sonic Corp. ad campaign. The session took place at Evolution Audio, 515 W. 39th St. The Beach boys are Bruce Johnston (left), Adrian Baker (third from left) and Mike Love (right.) Joining in were Sonic executives Cliff Hudson (second from left) and Ken Keymer.

If Every Corner Had A Sonic ...

Drive-in restaurants and the sound of the Beach Boys both mean summer, and this year Sonic Industries has combined the two.
For the last two years, Beach Boys classics have been the background in the Sonic TV commercials, but this year they've gone one better.
Starting Saturday, this summer's national radio and TV ads feature a new song by the Beach Boys, and they've added two new singers to the band.
Original members Mike Love, Bruce Johnston and Adrian Baker asked Sonic's Chief Executive Officer Cliff Hudson and Chief Operating Officer Ken Kemyer to sing along.
Hudson has sung and played guitar for years, and admitted that if he wasn't in his current job, he very well would have his own rock band.
Keymer, also a guitar player and singer, played Beach Boys songs as a teen-ager n a rock band.
