Al's Video Feature: Answer To Last Week's Trivia Question: Q: For a short time this woman was a keyboard player for the Beach Boys. She was the only "Beach Girl" ever in the band. Who was she? A: Toni Tenille! Daryl Dragon, the son of classical conductor Carmen Dragon, had studied classical piano for ten years. During the run of Mother Earth Daryl became impressed with Toni's writing and singing and persuaded her to join the Beach Boys as pianist on their next tour. She was the first and only "Beach Girl.? Daryl wound up being nicknamed "Captain Keyboard? by Mike Love, because he always wore a naval captain's cap on stage, so when he and Toni teamed up, they naturally became the Captain and Tennille.
