Title: My edit of Old Man River
Post by: slippingonthrough on March 03, 2014, 12:37:51 AM
There's probably already one of these but anyway. I was listening to the the two versions of Old Man River and thought about how the two can connect. So I made my own remix/edit. I combined the two and also added some SMiLE echo in a middle bit.
I reckon it worked really good. I hope you like it too.

nice but it's criminal to get rid of Old Folks At Home. it's such a big part of the arrangement.

Really sounds great.  I'm sure Brian would approve.

I thought about trying this myself, but I guess I don't have to now.

Nice job.

I don't think so. I reckon Capitol just stuck it at the start because it's by the same composer.

you think Capitol just stuck it there?

no. it's a Brian Wilson arrangement... one of his finest.


also, it's not by the same composer. Old Folks is Foster, Old Man is Kern.

Old Folks at Home (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Folks_at_Home) - Stephen Foster
Ol' Man River (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ol'_Man_River) - Jerome Kern / Oscar Hammerstein II

Really nice job by the way!
