The Stephen Desper Thread

As well it should. You ever spill some on the hood of the car? HIGHLY corrosive!

Mr Desper,
I asked this question on a different thread (http://smileysmile.net/board/index.php?topic=164.0) regarding the use of Brian's solo Surf's Up performance as heard on the Good Vibrations Box Set in the released version of the song. Could you shed any light on this for us?

Actually, something does occur to me Andrew: Given that the Surf's Up on the album of the same name was 'vocally enhanced' by Carl in Brian's section due, we're told, to damage done to the original tapes, what are the chances of this GV version being all Brian or mostly Brian with a bit of Carl? And if all Brian, why did Carl consider it not good enough to use as it was, as it sounds pretty good to me?

Its on record that Carl 'thickened' bits of Brian's demo in the second movement (SWD's Recording the BBs, p44), so I'm wondering where this corruption is on the GV box of Brian's solo Surf's Up, which sounds pretty good to my ears. Maybe SWD himself can answer the question if he pops by...
Many thanks...

Comment to Susan --
The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. Its pH is 2.8. It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major contributor to the rising increase in osteoporosis.
Great at removing road film from your windshild or cleaning chrome bumpers. ~swd

#1) Don't confuse the sound track of the show with the sound track of the rehearsal of the show.
#2) I don't believe you are hearing the double tracks where most of the damage was.

Mr Desper,
My apologies. How careless and silly of me. I can only conclude that the content of your main text distracted me from the serious business of (c) etc. outlined in your headers. Rest assured that all quotations have been removed from both this and the other thread, and that no further quotations will appear in here in the future.
I'd hate to think that my foolishness would spoil the enjoyment of your posts for other board members, and hope that you'll continue to share your knowledge and views with the SmileySmile community in the future.
A contrite and apologetic
brother john
P.S. So, you think that some of the GV track in question is single track only, in parts? I shall have to do some more listening, I think...
