Happy Sunday everyone! Here's a little fanmix I did of the never-made 1974-75 BB LP featuring what is available AND not including Battle Hymn of the Republic.  Also, I tried to fit River Song into the mix but it's too damn epic and it doesn't fit the overall mood of the record. Enjoy!  https://www.mixcloud.com/gabriel-lamarche/califfeel1975lp/CALIFORNIA FEELING (1975) Side A 01 Good Timin' 02 Susie Cincinatti (MIC mix) 03 Barnyard Blues 04 Had To Phone Ya (MIC mix) 05 Rainbows 06 Good Time 07 Rolling Up To Heaven Side B 08 It's Ok 09 Pacific Ocean Blues 10 Back Home (1970 version) 11 Everyone's In Love With You 12 Holy Man (Taylor Hawkins vocal version) 13 California Feeling (MIC mix) |

I really liked this. It worked well as a cohesive listening experience. I found myself thinking, if they had released this, or something similar, back then instead of 15BO - wow, they would have had a truly credible album that may very well have been a huge popular success. It's a good example of how they could have maintained a thriving "new music" career, while still embracing their past and pleasing the fans that wanted to hear those songs too. Anyway, well done. |

It would've done well in '75, granted Endless Summer was released prior to it. An LP named "California Feeling" will give a nostalgic enough "feel" to the old-timers, and the content would be hip enough for the critics. It flowed very well.

I like that selection of songs. It would've at least been better than 15 Big Ones! Another song I would add would be The Night Was So Young, which I think was written around 1975.

Great selection , really works well - A true democratic BB's album ( a la Sunflower ) and Dennis heavy (thank you)
On a side note , I could listen to POB (the track) all day long ( there is so much going on ) I would just love Gregg Jakobson and Earle Mankey to do a study video of that song.

Really enjoyed that. Would have made a great album. Listened to about half of 15 Real Ones after too.  |

Thanks a bunch all for the kind comments! Any SSmilers out there up for the task to come up with a cover art for the album? My Photoshop skills are too damn rusty  |

I never heard "Rollin' Up to Heaven" till now - 'tis real good! I expected worse than that, given its infamous status. Big deal, the lyrics.  Thumbs up for inclusion of Pacific Ocean Blue, that's one groovy toon!  |

Lime is food? Yep.
Mandarin and Clementine went to meet the entire citrus gang, nobody ate people.

Good work. I really like this. It's the first (in my opinion) successful attempt at this mix.
