It wasn't like it was a band playing with just the usual set-up live in a studio. You can tell that the voices were overdubbed multiple times on that recording. Still, impressive and different, and I'm sure Brian didn't have a lot of time to work on it. Thanks for sharing.

Depended on the band - even The Beatles didn't overdub until some of their last BBC sessions. I can understand The Beach Boys, traveling from overseas and with perfectionist Brian....

Title: Re: Hushabye - live at the BBC Post by: Ron on July 19, 2012, 04:41:52 PM I"ve got the Beatles live at the BBC album and it's great.... I also have Roy Orbison's, I believe it was recorded in the 80s though.

I think Orbison's Live at the BBC CD compiles recordings from various BBC appearances, not just stuff from the 80s.Title: Re: Hushabye - live at the BBC Post by: Chris Brown on July 19, 2012, 05:51:16 PM Damn that was beautiful.

Jerry Lee Lewis did some sessions as well and those are certainly not worked on: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_j3_kkkVSM Title: Re: Hushabye - live at the BBC Post by: The Shift on July 20, 2012, 12:00:35 AM Many thanks for the heads-up to the heads-up! Gorgeous...
I wonder though how many tracks the BBs would have squeezed into their allocated time? Give the Beatles half an hour and you'd probably get ten songs; given that the BBs seem to have done vocal overdubs, I suspect half an hour per song might have been a tall order! ;D Title: Re: Hushabye - live at the BBC Post by: Rocker on July 20, 2012, 05:20:59 AM Many thanks for the heads-up to the heads-up!

Nov 5 lists a BBC TV live performance of I Get Around, When I Grow Up. Nov 6 lists ARTV Ready Steady Go perf of I Get Around, When I Grow Up. Also a Nov 6 Playhouse Theatre BBC Light Prog Top Gear "live" perf of: I Get Around, Hushabye, Surfin' USA, Graduation Day, Wendy, Little Old Lady, When I Grow Up. Badman's book is pretty detailed about this UK visit but can't find a ref as to his source for the info. If this Hushabye perf is from the Nov 6 Playhouse sessions, then I'd LOVE to hear the rest. Wonder why this has surfaced now? Has someone been investigating the BBC archives for a possible BBC Sessions release? Or maybe the purported boxset archivists have been trawling archives the world over for long-forgotten gems worthy of inclusion in the 50th anniversary release. Or maybe it's just a one-off, happenstance thing… Good tho', innit!

Hope you had a good lunch. Well, the radio guy says nov 5th. Maybe Ian has more info ? Here's the Ready Steady Go ! - appearance : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCYouoLKxjo Title: Re: Hushabye - live at the BBC Post by: The Shift on July 20, 2012, 07:42:26 AM The Beeb must have a stack of stuff like this; I believe some has shown up in recent years, and there was a suggestion that a release of some kind might be considered.
See: http://www.nme.com/news/coldplay/37253 … which I found via this old thread: http://smileysmile.net/board/index.php/topic,5655.0.html Title: Re: Hushabye - live at the BBC Post by: Freddie French-Pounce on July 20, 2012, 12:47:37 PM maybe this (and others) will appear in the box set...
