Title: Wilson-Asher sessions from the 1990's Post by: b00ts on February 28, 2008, 06:57:52 PM Can anyone tell me if there is a studio version of "This Isn't Love?" I know that "Everything I Need" from The Wilsons CD was also co-written by Tony Asher in the mid-late 1990's... which other songs were written by Wilson/Asher in that period? I would love a new version of "This Isn't Love!"

I edited out the audience on 'This isn't love' and 'The First time' and they sound good enough to be honest, I then stuck them on an alternative (better) GIOMH album where I replaced some tracks with some preferable ones and it was a much more satisfying listen.

That sounds like a great idea. I'm gonna make me a brand new BrianWilson album with selected favorite tracks from unreleased, Roxy, and the solo albums, live and studio. Now, what shall I call it? Title: Re: Wilson-Asher sessions from the 1990's Post by: Roger Ryan on February 29, 2008, 06:01:15 AM I believe Brian did record at least one studio version of "This Isn't Love" with vocals, back in the late 90s with Joe Thomas (it's unreleased).

I'm gonna make me a brand new BrianWilson album with selected favorite tracks from unreleased, Roxy, and the solo albums, live and studio. Now, what shall I call it? Well don't call it 'Getting in over my head'! I took the title track off and the other Paley stuff ('GIOMH', 'Soul Searchin', 'Desert Drive', 'Saturday Morning in the City') as I class them as I prefer all the original versions of them and would rather listen to them in that context. I also prefer the original versions of the 'Sweet Insanity' stuff too ('Don't let her know she's an angel' and 'Rainbow Eyes'. I hate 'Make a Wish' in both incarnations). That doesn't leave much to work with as the most of the remainders are remakes of Sweet Insanity and BW88 outtakes ('You've Touched me', 'Fairytale', 'The Waltz') which I prefer in their remakes but like the original version of 'You've touched me' ('Talking Point') as well! That leaves 'How could we still be dancing' (Imagination outtake), 'A friend like you' (new?) and 'City Blues' (which has it's roots in the 'Cocaine' sessions, but i'm not keen on the song anyway), but those are kind of 'new'. Basically I wanted to make an album of new Brian stuff from recent years that I would enjoy listening to in these particular versions. So I thought of this lineup (not in this order); How could we still be dancing A friend like you You've Touched me Walking down the path of life California Feeling (I know this isn't new, but the Rocky version is the best IMO) What love can do The First time This isn't love Believe in yourself Christmasey What I really want for Christmas I included the Christmas tracks as I think they fit well in with the concept, I'm not too bothered that the lyrics are Christmasey.. Also could include 'Live let live', 'Midnights another day' and 'Forever she'll be my Surfer girl', that is - if 'Lucky old sun' doesn't get done! I've spent about 3 hours writing this post whilst at my desk in work as I keep getting disturbed, I think I may have lost the point of what I was thinking....! :-D |
