Title: Gee & H&V intro Post by: grooveblaster on January 24, 2012, 04:43:43 AM When was Gee first placed at the beginning of H&V? What is the earliest point in the SMiLE timeline that it was used at the beginning of the song and not within the song? Thanks.

There is a jan/feb '67 version that has it placed after the cantina section. Title: Re: Gee & H&V intro Post by: Bicyclerider on January 24, 2012, 08:25:47 AM The session tapes are pretty clear that gee preceded the H&V "sections" - after the sing Gee you can hear one of the Boys go into the next part, "dit dit dit, heroes and villains."

Title: Re: Gee & H&V intro Post by: Paul2010 on January 25, 2012, 08:51:54 AM When was 'you're under arrest!' recorded? I think at the same time as the Cantina vocals.

If you are referring to the TSS bonus track, I actually thought that was a compilation of (rough/early) mono mixes from that time, and not one edit. So it is an edit of a mono mix of the verse and other sections, one of the cantina, a rough edit of HAV part 2 sections, and one of the fade. I don't think the order of those mixes is vintage. The order of the various part 2 sections is vintage, I believe. Title: Re: Gee & H&V intro Post by: grooveblaster on January 25, 2012, 10:18:17 AM When was 'you're under arrest!' recorded?

Title: Re: Gee & H&V intro Post by: grooveblaster on January 25, 2012, 10:26:29 AM ok, i copied this order from another thread:
1. Normal first verse although the lead vocal sounds quite laid back ( more than normal 2. Whistle/Dum Dum section 3. My Children were raised accapella with Often wise/piano section 4. Wordless vocal verse 5. In the Cantina 6. How I love my girl (Gee) 7. Dit Dit accapella H&V with handclaps and the one/two note bass line 8. Heroes & Villains accapella - with the clip clop thing 9 False Barnyard with hum dum vocals So you are saying that 1-5 was a test mixdown and the 6-9 are a compilation of H&V Part 2 bits?

All the sections can be found on UM17. 1-3 are a mixdown (including "at 3 score and 5", with the word "at" inserted from a different source since it's missing on UM17). 4 is taken from another Heroes And Villains mono mix tape on UM17. 5 is also on UM17, called "vocal overdub take unknown". 6-8 is a mono mixdown. 9 is an alternate mix of the fade.
