Brian's 1975 recording of "In the Back of My Mind" is being released...

[Jim V.]

sweetdudejim called it with this post about the "Love and Mercy" soundtrack all the way back from last January.

Now anyways, after that, it's possibe, depending on licensing, that maybe you could end up with some other artists stuff. Maybe some Crystals, Ronettes, Beatles, possibly some Four Freshman even. Lastly, my biggest hope is that they decide to share previously unreleased older material, maybe like the piano and vocal version of "In the Back of My Mind" from 1975. I think something like that would be possible.

Wow. So I did. That was pie in the sky, super hopefulness. Awesome that it's really coming out, not on a Love and Mercy soundtrack, but on a version of Brian's new solo album!

[Rocker]

Great news but isn't it kinda odd to put a '75 Beach Boys (I guess) recording onto a 2015 Brian Wilson soloalbum? Even if just as a bonus

I think it's just a solo demo.  Kind of like how Still I Dream of It was on the I Just Wasn't Made for These Times soundtrack.

Ok, that would make more sense. Not too much but more than a Beach Boys track.

It looks like the Deluxe Edition sold in Canada and New Zealand will include the tracks as well.  Same press release that's on Brian's site, it appears, with ITBOMM and L&M added to the Deluxe Edition tracklisting.

Wonderful!

Looks like I will have to buy the import. Once again, the U.S. (with its crap economy) offers an inferior version of a product

So what's the newest gem that's still locked up now?

I wouldn't be surprised if these bonus tracks are offered on some retailer-exclusive release in the U.S.

Fabulous news! 

[stack-o-tracks]

I've heard this version is actually John Cusack trying to sound like Brian Wilson on the 1975 version of the killer song from the Today! album.







Not really, but wouldn't that be a terrible bonus track?

Would it be too much to suggest that Brian's people read these boards over the last few years, saw the demand for this song and that's why they chose to include it as a bonus track?

I'd like to think that's the case. I honestly can't think of many, if any, unreleased tracks which I'd like to hear more than this one.

Yes. Yes it would.

The "Sail On Sailor" BW/VDP songwriting tape that Van Dyke Parks gave to the label when they needed a single, the one where Brian says 'hypnotize me...' to Van Dyke. This was described in the Preiss book back in '78, doubtful it would be released officially even if it could, but still.

and yet...  Brian and Melinda are willing to sit and watch multiple showings of a movie based on themselves, so it doesn't seem to me it would be that much a bigger leap to include the aforementioned demo as a bonus track on one of his own releases; tho probably not ona BBs release

Was Brian 's 1975 recording unearthed during the compiling of MIC? You would think that would have been the perfect place for it. It makes me wonder if this is a very recent re-discovery.

A lot of great stuff was left off MIC.

Wonderful!

This text is from the flannel panel for the vinyl edition on AmZon UK:

‘No Pier Pressure’ will be released April 6 in standard 13-track and deluxe 18-track editions, each available on CD and digitally, as well as a 16-track 2LP edition on 180-gram vinyl.

Implication is that there is no 16 track edition, other than the vinyl: only the 18 track.

Well, to me, the one really important and inexplicable omission was the first version of Big Sur.

Isn't that on the > proposed Brother Reissue tracks< CDs that were reported on here sometime back?  maybe someone has it from those to share

[Smilin Ed H]

Carry Me Home and Big Sur are the two that immediately spring to mind in terms of quality.

So this collection has still not circulated? Kinda glad - when it appears legitimately, it's gonna be a mind blower.
