Unfortunately too busy finishing my own masterpiece, (yes folks it's coming soon) to be dithering around with someone elses stuff. :lol Title: Re: SMiLE Question for Talented Musicy People Post by: CenturyDeprived on September 06, 2017, 12:52:09 PM Speaking of the intro of "Look", I've always felt the first 20 seconds were *so* magical, and almost reminiscent of the intro of California Girls. So much so that it kind of feels like a successor or tip of the hat/sequel to that beautiful CG intro.

So much so that it kind of feels like a successor or tip of the hat/sequel to that beautiful CG intro. Agree, I've left it off Smile mixes in the past for not being on the December tracklist/missing vocals but I've been listening to it a lot more lately and it's really something special. Smile's a lot less without it. Probably the single best backing track Brian produced in that era, maybe slightly behind something like Surf's Up or Cabin Essence. Hence why I really really wish a version existed with that clarinet melody to make it feel as finished as the other songs :P And the weird intro is like the creepy Child intro as well. Then the main melody which is the vocal outro for GV...it just seems like BW crammed all these production ideas into this half-assed song so he wouldn't forget them. That's my take. Glad others can enjoy it on its own merits, but it really just seems like a cheesy Charles Ives ish mess too me!

Bossaroo. If I find out you bought the Durrie acetates and didn't share them I will find out were you live. And I will unleash the full force of Emporer Palapatine on your sorry arse Title: Re: SMiLE Question for Talented Musicy People Post by: jiggy22 on September 07, 2017, 03:20:07 PM versions exist See, I hate it when people hint that there is unheard Smile stuff lying around, and that they have heard them.
