Title: Two brief questions... Post by: TheLazenby on February 13, 2006, 08:28:36 PM (1) Was "Mike Love, Not War" (2005) ever released, or did it just get added to the list of lost Beach Boys albums?
(2) Is there an instrumental version of "In The Cantina" (just that section itself) anywhere?? 'Cause I was thinking, you could probably use a bit of that as the intro to 'I'm In Great Shape'... Title: Re: Two brief questions... Post by: c-man on February 14, 2006, 04:54:57 AM (1) Supposedly set for release this year.
(2) Disc Two of the "Brian Wilson Pesenets SMiLE" DVD includes a "Catina" instrumental mix (including the laughter) over either one of the menus, or over the credits at the end of the concert film...can't remember which, but it's one or the other. C-Man Title: Re: Two brief questions... Post by: Evenreven on February 14, 2006, 05:12:13 AM (2) There is a version with Mike on lead, but I'm not aware of any instrumental mix. It's not on SOT17. I don't have all the other boots, though. If there is no '67 version, you can rip the sound from the Smile dvd like c-man says.
Title: Re: Two brief questions... Post by: TheLazenby on February 14, 2006, 06:41:02 AM Nah, I won't bother then. Kinda defeats the purpose. I was going to use it to attempt to actually make an "all Beach Boys material" version of I'm In Great Shape.
Title: Re: Two brief questions... Post by: Joshilyn Hoisington on February 14, 2006, 09:25:29 AM I'm pretty sure there's an instrumental Cantina somewhere. I think I heard it on Project Smile, but I could be very, very wrong.
Title: Re: Two brief questions... Post by: Jeff Mason on February 14, 2006, 09:34:17 AM Heroes and Vibrations has a snippet of the tracking session -- it's just Brian on tack piano.
Title: Re: Two brief questions... Post by: Chris Brown on February 14, 2006, 10:17:57 AM I thought it was Van Dyke on tack piano there? I once heard that tracking session and it sounds like Brian instructing Van Dyke on how to play. I could be wrong of course.
Title: Re: Two brief questions... Post by: Jason on February 14, 2006, 11:07:29 AM The In The Cantina backing track is available on a VERY rare bootleg called Heroes and Villains Sessions Part II (a continuation of the Wilson Records release). Take 17 was the master, which was overdubbed.
EDIT - The backing track is for take 4. Apologies. Title: Re: Two brief questions... Post by: Joshilyn Hoisington on February 14, 2006, 11:16:13 AM If you're willing to use an alternate take, take 15 exists on project smile which is complete, but lacking the mandolin overdub, and Brian's not quite as solid as he might be at some of the changes. Project Smile is not VERY rare, fortunately.
Title: Re: Two brief questions... Post by: TheLazenby on February 15, 2006, 08:34:30 PM I'm torrenting it even as we speak!
Would anyone mind (nudge, nudge, wink, wink) sharing the "tack piano" version? That sounds like it would go well with the "Great Shape" demo... Title: Re: Two brief questions... Post by: Surfer Joe on February 15, 2006, 09:04:59 PM I heard a big chunk of the session many years ago- I don't think Brian was playing on the sessions I heard; sounded like he was in the booth with Chuck.
Title: Re: Two brief questions... Post by: Jeff Mason on February 16, 2006, 03:02:45 AM Has ANYONE ELSE heard Heroes and Vibrations? It is clearly Brian playing on that session at least. You can hear VDP in the control room tell him first that sounds good, and then maybe they should move the mike a little closer. Brian keeps flubbing the part and getting frustrated.
