Title: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Pretty Funky on November 11, 2008, 08:44:49 PM Have listened to the PS podcast from 06 lately and in a few of the interviews, the songs have been played in part minus the vocals. Fantastic!
Has the whole album ever been available in that form? Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Compost on November 11, 2008, 08:52:07 PM Yuppers, the Pet Sounds Sessions Boxset. Bliss.
Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Pretty Funky on November 11, 2008, 09:19:31 PM I had a feeling the answer was going to cost me! :o
Never wanted to go there but may reconsider. The whole album is it? Thanks. Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Andrew G. Doe on November 11, 2008, 09:56:42 PM Whole album, PLUS.
Mono remaster, stereo remix, track sessions in stereo, vocal tracks in stereo and some odds & ends. This is an essential part of anyone's collection. Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Compost on November 12, 2008, 07:51:33 AM Yeah, it really, really is worth it - years of listening and enjoyment. eBay is your friend.
Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: John on November 12, 2008, 08:55:58 AM I'll third it. It's a beautiful, multi-faceted set, well worth the money.
Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Chris Brown on November 12, 2008, 10:06:09 AM Completely and totally worth whatever you have to pay to get it. You will gain a whole new appreciation for the album. The vocals only disc is worth the price of admission alone. I actually need a new copy, I've worn out the CDs I have now.
Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Bicyclerider on November 12, 2008, 02:37:57 PM That's the one reason I want a Smile boxset - to get all the tracks (officially) without the vocals. I've made my own CDr of Smile tracks, and it's amazing!
Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Cam Mott on November 12, 2008, 05:01:19 PM I also vote the PS boxset as a must have.
Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: buddhahat on November 13, 2008, 11:05:15 AM yeah, for the Don't Talk piano demo alone - love that demo!
Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Chris Brown on November 13, 2008, 01:02:24 PM yeah, for the Don't Talk piano demo alone - love that demo! The all-Brian vocal snippet is quite amazing too. Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: buddhahat on November 13, 2008, 01:06:43 PM yeah, for the Don't Talk piano demo alone - love that demo! The all-Brian vocal snippet is quite amazing too. I never knew that was all Brian. That snippet is stunning. Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Compost on November 13, 2008, 01:20:04 PM Agreed. Love that demo to death. To death I say!
Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: chris.metcalfe on November 14, 2008, 04:54:06 AM Also worth getting just for Caroline No at the correct speed.
Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Chris Brown on November 14, 2008, 08:32:00 AM Also worth getting just for Caroline No at the correct speed. True, although I still find it to be too slow at the correct speed. Probably just a result of having heard the album version all these years, but its still a bit jarring to me. Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Pretty Funky on November 14, 2008, 04:58:54 PM Ok ok I'll get it!!!
Hey thanks for the replies. Consider it on my Christmas list. Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Alex on November 15, 2008, 04:56:13 PM Also worth getting just for Caroline No at the correct speed. You can always correct the pitch yourself with any pitch-changing effect plugin in an audio editing program. Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Cam Mott on November 16, 2008, 07:24:59 PM "Also worth getting just for Caroline No at the correct speed."
Wouldn't that be Caroline No at the uncorrected speed? Title: Re: Pet Sounds Question Post by: Dove Nested Towers on November 20, 2008, 02:05:53 AM Personal highlights: "Wouldn't it be Nice" with backing vocals only, "That's Not Me" rehearsal,
Brian's studio discussion of "How to Speak Hip" album, string backing for "Don't Talk". Priceless. 8) |
