The last chord played at the end of Strange World, buried in the swooshing wind sounds, right before From There to Back Again begins.  What is that chord?  It is haunting.

Brian's multi tracking his vocals on the chorus of "You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin"

The backing track of In the Back of Mind - geez could that track be any more sophisticated? Light years ahead of contemporary music of that time.  When was that recorded, late 1964?  So advanced and beautiful.

Bass fills between verses on Here Comes The Night (no, not the disco version).

Totally agree, I've been listening to that track alot lately. Love the "baseball's on" part as well!

Speaking of A/C tracks, the "what your life" part in Everybody Wants To Live kicks ass.

I like that part as well. The whole depth of the song is great and Dennis for myself does an excellent job doing the lead vocals. There's an extended version on YouTube floating round, it's cool!

"The cigarette butt when you throw it in the water, goes PSSCHH. But the trick, but the trick is you shouldn't laugh. 'Cause if you start laughing you're just a coward. If you start laughing you're just a coward."

I absolutely love the lyrics, nothing describes Brian's state of mind at the time better than that!

Anyways, I'm absolutely obsessed with the fade to Heroes and Villains right now. Specifically the "Barnshine" version with those awesome backing vocals. It's amazing what Brian was able to do with just two chords. I listen to it and think, "how the hell did he come up with THIS. How could anyone have ever heard something like this in their head?" I may just be looking into it a little too deeply, but let's just leave it at the fact that it's a great little piece of music Grin

"It's About Time" (Sunflower)

Everything about the song is amazing. It's a song that you wouldn't normally associate with the Beach Boys.

Love that song.  Showed that, when they wanted to, The Beach Boys could really rock out.

I too like "It's trying to say". I was at the time quite fond of Adult child album but it's been long time since I last listened to it. if I play them now, mentally, my favorite still is "Life is for the living" & "Still I dream of it" is still nothing special for me.

The piano demo for "I'll Bet He's Nice" is so good. 

I try to put myself in Brian's position of playing this for the rest of the band.  I can't tell if their hoots and hollers during the song are genuine or sarcastic, but the song certainly elicits a response.  I love how Mike says at the end "THAT IS A MOTHER F'ER!"

You should listen to it in its entirety and have a blast for old times' sake! What a great set of unreleased songs in one!  Afro

I am loving the piano demos of Don't Talk and California Feelin', they have such a melancholy sound to them, I absolutely adore it! Hell all of Brian's piano demos are gold, but these two in particular stand out!

The "music is in my soul" line in Add Some Music To Your Day. Lately, for some reason the part of the song has been moving me to tears.

+1 to that

The intro to The Surfer Moon has also been stuck in my head lately, such an underrated song.

That's cool, I'm a fan of both as well. 

Hearing Add Some Music during the legend leg of the NPP Tour was a nice surprise.
