Damnit, the truth has been revealed. 0:16-0:36 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhYPzl_0dR4 BW's falsetto - extracted from "Our Prayer" with rearranged melody. the original sample is just one long held out note. Al's "Bom Bom"'s - from H&V pt 2 with notes rearranged Carl's "Child, The Child" - extracted from "Child Is Father Of The Man" Harmonies - from "Can't Wait Too Long" a capalla version with notes rearranged This clip has some of the harmonies from later in the song isolated: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mEt_M27XziY Title: Re: Do any of you know which song(s) this Beach Boys harmony comes from?

Thanks, glad you dig it. That one took me a few intense 3-hour sessions of plotting and editing. It was a really fun creative project, and there were a lot of spur of the moment ideas. So even though it took a little while, I got so lost in it that it didn't seem to take long at all. And yeah, I'm pretty satisfied with it. Which is rare for me, as a creator. I'd say this is one of the very few songs from the SMILE AD project that I wouldn't tamper with if I was to make another volume.

One of the great things about the way the Smile story has evolved is that people now have even more latitude to DIY it, both in and out of the context of "what would it have sounded like." The emphasis seems to have shifted from speculating about the track order to doing creative, "out of the box" stuff that is in the spirit of what BW might have done at some point while he was lost in the labyrinth of his own making. More, please!!

Doe on July 11, 2013, 02:27:38 AM BW's falsetto - extracted from "Our Prayer" with rearranged melody. the original sample is just one long held out note. So not an original element at all but a construct of the compiler decades after the event. That would explain why it fit so well (which immediately started alarm bells ringing for me: much too convenient). It works well. Thanks.

Yes, but as noted, it's something that was possible (albeit unlikely) to have been done at the time of creation if BW had somehow managed to wander off into that direction. That's what the modular approach allows--enough interchangeability to produce virtually infinite variety (complete and utter chaos...) :smokin |
