Previously released, I'm guessing. Title: Re: Dennis Wilson : Morning Christmas...

It was included ::) Sorry trying to be a smart arse :afro What I mean is it sounds quite similar to Common, although I don't really know how closely related the two pieces actually were. Is there any documented evidence that they share derivation? Title: Re: Dennis Wilson : Morning Christmas... Post by: onkster on December 25, 2012, 08:46:15 PM It's a fantastic piece of music, wherever it comes from. We should be glad it actually made it out, after being on low-quality boots for years...

Listening to this song right now, wondering when exactly it was recorded. Also did notice the ending piano coda of "Common" is indeed the exact same ending as "Morning Christmas". Never even noticed that.

Morning Christmas and Goin' South get my vote. Cabin Essence too. Almost anything from Friends. Title: Re: Dennis Wilson : Morning Christmas...

Almost anything from Friends. I think Smiley Smile is a great winter record... A little too dark and creepy for Christmas though. Title: Re: Dennis Wilson : Morning Christmas... Post by: c-man on December 25, 2013, 02:57:41 PM Thanks for the info, all. I would love to learn more about the song's history, whether it was derived from "Common", etc. Since "Morning Christmas" comes from November '77 and "Common" from April '78, I'd say it was the other way around.
