Ocular Query[edit]

Why are the irises of his eyes unnaturally large? Does he wear sun glasses to conceal them?Lestrade 16:46, 9 September 2007 (UTC)Lestrade[reply]

I was wondering the same thing. Never seen anything like it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.112.110.153 (talk) 12:42, 21 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

This is the most important question i have in my life right now: the world must know the truth!Mercurywoodrose (talk) 05:41, 14 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I remember noticing the same thing back in the '70s (and finding it rather becoming). I assumed the look was caused by his corrective lenses, which seemed to be quite strong. Coincidentally, I came to this listing because "Love Will Keep Us Together" came on the radio and the memories came flooding back. I sometimes wonder if celebrities who've left the spotlight find any consolation in the realization that they've brought so much pleasure to so many people. 198.228.206.106 (talk) 13:52, 19 March 2012 (UTC)HelenChicago[reply]

One sided reference[edit]

I heard a rumor that Daryl Dragon was a Beach Boy, as this wiki states. I also heard Toni was the only female Beach Boy. Reading through the wiki for the Beach Boys states nothing about Daryl Dragon or Toni Tenille. Why is this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.32.7.9 (talk) 01:45, 10 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Daryl and Toni served with The Beach Boys during the early 70's during some of their reforming years without Brian Wilson. Take a look at the album Carl and the Passions – "So Tough". If memory serves, I believe the two met during this time. Additionally, I think Mike Love gave Daryl his nickname, The Captain.Docob5 (talk) 21:46, 19 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Does "Neurological Condition" require a section heading?[edit]

Perhaps if his condition was more publicized (e.g., Michael J. Fox and his MJF Foundation), but given the current brevity of this article, I would suggest merging this section with the main article section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dosware (talk • contribs) 02:21, 30 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Cuddle Up & The Beach Boys[edit]

If you want to understand Daryl Dragon, give a listen to The Beach Boys song Cuddle Up. The song was written by Daryl and Dennis Wilson. Brian Wilson is rightly credited with the BB sound, but when you listen to Cuddle Up, there is another level of music taking place. History will probably mistakenly skip this song when they write about The Beach Boys. Start the song at 3:00 minutes and play and listen for 30 seconds. Here is the link.Docob5 (talk) 04:57, 24 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Structure Simplification[edit]

I think the section entitled "Music work outside Captain & Tennille" could be a sub heading under "Career". Let me know what you guys think
