Title: Good Vibrations Vocal Sessions Post by: t0nmontana on April 03, 2006, 10:38:32 PM Does anyone have any of the vocal sessions from good vibrations? i'm doing a remix of the song for school, and it would be very helpful to have just the vocals. If anyone has any vocals sessions that they could send me that would be greatly appreciated. Please let me know...and thanx a lot. Peace.

Title: Re: Good Vibrations Vocal Sessions Post by: Reverend Joshua Sloane on April 04, 2006, 02:01:23 PM He was the one who threw them out?
I just made up the name on spot without even making the connection with him. Title: Re: Good Vibrations Vocal Sessions Post by: Joshilyn Hoisington on April 04, 2006, 02:09:25 PM I doubt he personally threw them out, but he engineered the vocal sessions.
Title: Re: Good Vibrations Vocal Sessions Post by: cta on April 05, 2006, 07:04:20 PM Yeah, they probably are gone. As big as the song is and knowing how Linnet's the big Wilson Stereo Master, he would have gotten a hold of it by now had it not been thrown away.
Oh well, leaves us to make our own creations...such as the released GV and the GV (every piece that I take) side by side on the stereo channels...which is a KILLER mix! Don't know the "official" name of the GV (every piece) but it sticks out with Brian's vocal singing that. Other than that, it's mostly the original minus the organ dropout where the official one has it.

Title: Re: Good Vibrations Vocal Sessions Post by: b.dfzo on April 05, 2006, 07:55:21 PM Never say never! But, yeah, there is likely never to be an official stereo mix of the original 45 version.
But who cares? "Good Vibrations" is probably the greatest mono record ever made. That is something to revel in! |
