Title: Recordings w/ BW and his band singing
Post by: the captain on March 09, 2007, 02:30:31 PM
I was putting together a compilation disc of studio recordings that feature non-album (non-Brian Wilson album, anyway) recordings that include vocal contributions from Brian and at least some of his band, as I prefer those to the ones with his vocals alone. Can anyone else think of any releases I may be missing that fit either of the categories below?

I'm not pulling songs from BWPS or the Xmas album.

BW w/ band:
Desert Drive (GIOMH)
Walking Down... / L&M (single)
The Spirit of Rock n Roll (Songs from There & Back)
California Feelin' (BW Selects Classics compilation)
What Love Can Do (Target disc)

Band members w/ BW vox:
Ride (Wondermints, Mind if...)
So Nice (Wondermints, Mind if...)
No Wrong Notes in Heaven (Bennett, The Dotted Line)
Everything I Need (Foskett)

If I am missing anything, I'd be grateful for anyone to let me know what else is out there. I recommend anyone with similar sentiments compile something using those songs plus any other particular favorites--I used Darian's recording of Do You Have Any Regrets and I Wanna Pick You Up, BW's GIOMH, Soul Searchin and City Blues--and have fun. I love the changes in vocal texture--more like a BBs album.

Though it doesn't fit in with your theme of having band vocals, 'Believe in Yourself' would be a good addition too, thats a good handful of non-LP Brian songs.

On Adam Marsland's You Don't Know Me, the title track has Probyn on trumpet & bvs and Darian on bvs & co-lead, and "The Big Bear" has Darian & Probyn on bvs.

Ummmmmmmm... think I misunderstood the question.  :(  Rats.

Still cool, good info. I have already broken my own rule by including Darian's solo versions of "Do You Have Any Regrets" and "I Wanna Pick You Up."
