Link isn't working right now though.

Workin' for me. Woohoo! A steady trickle of unreleased Beach Boys stuff, I dunno what all you complainers are whining about... what a fun month for the board!

[ontor pertawst]

Where did this doublepost come from?

Hmmm...

"."

So... thoughts, teen gang?

[Wrightfan]

Tried Firefox, Chrome and Safari. Nuthin'. Must be a Mac thing 

[Rocky Raccoon]

This is probably the best version of this song I've heard.

[Mikie]

Works good and sounds fantastic!  Carl sings it beautifully. Dennis on the end. This has been booted before, right?  

Please release the entire show!

[ontor pertawst]

We're due for a tasty 70s live box. Hmm, what would be a good name for it?

[Sheriff John Stone]

There needs to be a Dennis Wilson boxed set or something, I don't care. That man could compose MUSIC. Didn't you almost start to cry when Carl started singing. So many people who DIDN'T hear this music, so sad. For that window of time - 1971-73 - Dennis had an incredible singing voice - and we're only hearing it NOW! Sorry for the rambling...

[leggo of my ego]

Plays fine for me (Windows/ Firefox) give it some time to load. Track sounds great!

[Dave Modny]

Works good and sounds fantastic!  Carl sings it beautifully. This has been booted before, right?  

Please release the entire show!

Yep, on the much-discussed-as-of-late Carnegie Hall soundboard.

I've always loved this live version, from the the first time I heard it nearly 15 years ago. So much so, that I always planned to recreate a studio version using the Holland take, married with the tag from Dennis's solo version. Just like they do it here.

Never got around to it though. Maybe now. Inspiration.

[18thofMay]

WOW awesome!!

[Mikie]

Yep, on the much-discussed-as-of-late Carnegie Hall soundboard.

Thought so!  Just pulled it out to verify - Hang Ten 001.  11/23/72 at Carnegie.  They gotta release the whole thing! Fantastic sound quality. Heard they found another tape or the rest of it or sumpthin'.

[Tony S]

Great version. I actually had this already on CD; don't remember where I got it, but loved the song and the Dennis tag!

BEACH BOYS ARCHIVE INCLUDES LEGENDARY 1972 CARNEGIE HALL TAPES

by Howie Edelson

The Beatles aren't the only '60s icons preserving their legendary catalogue and vault; the Beach Boys' team is hard at work cataloging the thousands of tapes which make up their archive. The team -- chief archivist Alan Boyd and producer/engineer Mark Linett -- has recently collected all of the known elements of the band's unfinished 1967 album Smile, and have now uncovered the multi-tracks for the Beach Boys' two historic concerts at New York's Carnegie Hall on November 23rd, 1972.

For years, only half of one of the shows has been available in pristine stereo on the underground market. Boyd says that the band's company Brother Records is in possession of all of the multi-track masters of the shows, and is now collecting appropriate film and video footage which could be included on a potential project.

Elvis Costello saw the Beach Boys six months prior to the Carnegie Hall show in his then-hometown of Liverpool, and was amazed at how the band's current image and musicality transcended their iconic '60s image: "I saw the Beach Boys in Liverpool at the Liverpool Empire. That was a very different experience. They were in that... one of the periods, although Carl and Dennis (Wilson) were singing in the band, Brian (Wilson) wasn't with them, but the Surf's Up album and the beautiful Carl And The Passions album were out -- and Holland -- those records were out. Dennis sang an extraordinary version of "Cuddle Up" at that gig, which I'll never forget. That was an incredible thing to see; because although the main writer wasn't present, you realize that they had reclaimed themselves as a creative band away from the cliched idea of these guys that sing these car songs and dress in stripey shirts."

The songs performed by the Beach Boys at Carnegie Hall: "Sloop John B.," "You Need A Mess Of Help To Stand Alone," "Leaving This Town," "Darlin'," "Only With You," "Heroes And Villains," "Long Promised Road," "Don't Worry Baby," "Student Demonstration Time," "I Get Around," "Marcella," "California Saga," "Help Me, Rhonda," "Medley: Wonderful/Don't Worry Bill," "God Only Knows," "Do It Again," "Wouldn't It Be Nice," "Wild Honey," "Good Vibrations," "Surfin' U.S.A," "Fun, Fun, Fun," and "Jumpin' Jack Flash."

The official members of the Beach Boys at the time were Dennis and Carl Wilson, Mike Love, Al Jardine, Blondie Chaplin, and Ricky Fataar.

Alan Boyd says that his and Linett's primary public duties for the Beach Boys are locating the masters to the band's earlier work, and remixing them into modern stereo mixes for the band's numerous career-spanning compilations: "The fans and the public at large really seem to like these new stereo mixes, and that was really apparent when Mark did Pet Sounds in 1997. And the reaction to that is so strong that he started looking at other albums and other tracks, so every time we have the opportunity -- we did a lot of this on the Hawthorne record -- we've been going back and doing that, 'cause there's so much pressure brought to bear, y'know, in the market, for things to be in stereo."

Boyd and Linett -- both Grammy nominees -- have collaborated on such recent Beach Boys collections as Endless Harmony, Hawthorne, CA, Good Timin': Live At Knebworth England 1980, The Warmth Of The Sun, The Original U.S. Singles Collection The Capitol Years 1962-1965 box set, and the recently released Summer Love Songs.

Linett is also known for his work with Brian Wilson over the past two decades -- including the revamping of the entire Beach Boys' catalogue beginning in the late 1980's. Linett's work on 2004's Brian Wilson Presents Smile was nominated for a Grammy for Best Engineered Album (Non-Classical).

The Beach Boys -- featuring Mike Love and Bruce Johnston -- perform tomorrow night (September 5th) in Saint Petersburg, Florida at Tropicana Field.

Beach Boys cofounder David Marks will join Southern California rock legends Dean Torrence of Jan & Dean and Billy Hinsche at Endless Summer Quarterly's East Coast Convention dubbed the "Pet Sounds Safari" on September 11th and 12th in Cornelius and Davidson, North Carolina -- which is just 20 minutes North of the Charlotte Metro area. Proceeds from the convention will benefit the Cornelius Animal Shelter. For ticket, schedule, and venue information, log on to endlesssummerquarterly.blogspot.com.

Brian Wilson kicks off his next series of solo dates on October 23rd in Mount Pleasant, Michigan at the Soaring Eagle Casino & Resort.

Wilson has just added a new date to his itinerary, and will play on November 12th in Lowell, Massachusetts at the Lowell Memorial Auditorium.

Wow, absolutely BEAUTIFUL!  I miss Carl more now than ever.  His voice is truely like an angel.

[Quzi]

Really beautiful, a sizeable improvement on the studio cut.

Tried Firefox, Chrome and Safari. Nuthin'. Must be a Mac thing 

Worked first time for me on the Mac! Make sure you have a program with streaming capabilities such as "VLC" to listen.

[The Shift]

Apparently this sample of Only With You is only available for a short time, according to the BBs Facebook page. My iPhone wont access it anyway but don't the rest of you miss it folks!  It's by car and away one of the most outstanding live tracks I've heard by the band.

[pixletwin]

Its not working for me. What is an asx file anyway?

[surferlicious]

Its not working for me. What is an asx file anyway?

download a program called FLip4mac , install then save the file from the MSN site and open it manually with Fliplayer. Should work.

[Mikie]

Don't need to do all that. Just have VLC Player in your arsenal and it'll play pretty much everything under the Sun.

[Emdeeh]

Oh, man -- this track is awesome!! A magnificent Carl lead with Denny's outro.

[pixletwin]

No luck. Guess I'll just have to wait til Monday.   

[bgas]

No luck. Guess I'll just have to wait til Monday.

[Rocky Raccoon]

Whatever it is, it plays in Windows Media Player.

[leggo of my ego]

Hoping someone can grab it as an mp3 like some of the other leaked MIC tracks.
