Title: Newer Sloop John B, Wouldn't It Be Nice recordings Post by: spgass on September 17, 2018, 03:00:34 PM Hi, new to the forum here. Recently I was watching a couple videos on Youtube with Brian Wilson and Al Jardine recording Sloop John B and Wouldn't It Be Nice at Capitol Studios in 2016:
https://youtu.be/eDZgl7H-coQ (https://youtu.be/eDZgl7H-coQ) https://youtu.be/G_tWGUBFsz4 (https://youtu.be/G_tWGUBFsz4) My question is were these versions released on an album? If so, which one? Thanks a lot, Steve Title: Re: Newer Sloop John B, Wouldn't It Be Nice recordings Post by: John Brode on September 17, 2018, 03:17:30 PM Welcome Steve! I'm pretty sure those were just one offs, not released any where else besides youtube. I could be wrong though

Title: Re: Newer Sloop John B, Wouldn't It Be Nice recordings Post by: spgass on September 18, 2018, 05:25:51 PM Thanks for the info - hopefully they will be included on a release someday. I especially like the endings (no fade-outs) on those tracks.
Title: Re: Newer Sloop John B, Wouldn't It Be Nice recordings Post by: GoofyJeff on September 19, 2018, 06:21:21 AM My recollection is they did perform the entire Pet Sounds album in those sessions and it was to be released.
Sadly, I believe the accusations against Scott Bennett put the kibosh on that, since it was roughly around the same time both went down. Or my 42-year-old memory is mixing things up again. |
