Title: Vaea (Vy-Ya) King Harvest Post by: ohthosegirls on February 29, 2012, 07:46:43 AM Is this song any good with Carl & Mike's vocals? I'd love to know more about it. I looked pretty hard online to buy it, does anyone know where one can get it??
Title: Re: Vaea (Vy-Ya) King Harvest Post by: Aegir on February 29, 2012, 12:26:27 PM Six minutes long, extremely repetitive lyrics. Typical Ron Altbach electric piano. The only part Carl and Mike are audible on is saying the line "oh, vyea, vyea, vyea" again and again and again.
Title: Re: Vaea (Vy-Ya) King Harvest Post by: ohthosegirls on February 29, 2012, 01:01:54 PM Doesn't sound too great. I guess I'll have to hear it myself though. Thanks for the info!

It's kinda like "All This Is That" (only not that good) in that the repetition becomes hypnotic. The long version has about 60 seconds more of Mike & Carl.

Title: Re: Vaea (Vy-Ya) King Harvest Post by: Custom Machine on March 01, 2012, 11:38:38 AM All Life Is One by Charles Lloyd is recomended. Brian is on top singing high still in great voice. Yeah, All Life Is One features absolutely beautiful harmonies by Brian, Carl, Mike, Al, Billy Cowsill, Rhetta Hughes, and Michael O'Gara. It's on the Warm Waters album released in 1971. As far as I know it's never been released on CD or iTunes, etc. Title: Re: Vaea (Vy-Ya) King Harvest Post by: Mikie on March 01, 2012, 11:45:51 AM Always really liked that song. It's the only real reason I bought the album, other than some of the Beach Boys are on it....
Title: Re: Vaea (Vy-Ya) King Harvest Post by: Malc on March 01, 2012, 01:03:57 PM Always loved "Vy-Ya" myself - and rate it alongside "All Life Is One" as a great timepiece. Tie it in with Mike's rambling "Rishikesh" and you have a nice little three-part trilogy ... not quite "California Saga" but it plays well :hat
Title: Re: Vaea (Vy-Ya) King Harvest Post by: Mikie on March 01, 2012, 01:42:15 PM "Country Pie" was from that era too, wadinit? They did it live around '78. Like that one too.
Title: Re: Vaea (Vy-Ya) King Harvest Post by: ohthosegirls on March 01, 2012, 05:12:07 PM I never could get into the Charles Lloyd songs, but maybe I'll give them another listen soon. Country Pie is a fun one for sure!
Title: Re: Vaea (Vy-Ya) King Harvest Post by: Rich Panteluk on March 01, 2012, 07:12:29 PM I'd love to hear Vy-Ya. But would really love to hear All Life Is One. Billy Cowsill and Brian Carl, Mike and Al. That is five of my very favorite singers all on one track. Please Maybe someone could help me...
