Post by: Jameswilliam on October 11, 2011, 02:01:54 AM
Im sure this may have been covered before, but im just curious if anyone knows what happened to the footage from when jules siegel was hanging with brian.  Or any other footage from the Inside Pop documentary?

If you use the Search box and search Inside Pop you will come up with a veritable treasure trove of informed discussion of the subject....and other stuff too.

The Inside Pop outtake discussions here are indeed almost all the info you'll be able to find on that topic, besides the various mini-discussions in the mega Smile thread. Plus, check the Good Vibrations film thread of a few weeks ago featuring info on Jules' appearance in the GV promo film. That was new and pretty awesome info to discover...and some neat photos too. And somewhere on the board there was some new info on that silent film of Brian banging out a tune on piano at Columbia during the Smile sessions (seen in American Band), again with new info. Plus, the silent clip of Brian wearing the firehat at Western #3 mixing something with Van Dyke and the Boys...some newer info there as well.

It still seems like a shortage of film overall from that time period, considering Brian had a Sony PortaPak video recording system which he was using to videotape various events during Smile. I'm almost out of hope that anything from those tapes will ever be discovered...because simply put no one has ever seen nor found any of them.

Well, it sounds as though *some* footage was discovered recently... I guess we'll know more shortly?

Brian could have them in storage somewhere for all we know. So maybe he just doesn't want anybody to see them. Or they were the tapes he actually burned....

I'm really looking forward watching - and hopefully listening - that.  I'm sure it will be released eventually.
Can you just imagine?  :o
