The guy at the beginning whose face is hidden by his camera looks like it could be Paul McCartney. Anyone?

According to the uploader it is him. Is that ALL beach boys music? A specific part sounds like KISS.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's all BB's music. Alot of it is just tracks played backwards. Groovy.

Think one part might be the Ant Bee faux-"Worms", and another isn't from the Smile era.

Very cool, he did a great editing job.  Which part do you think is the Ant Bee "Worms" Andrew, the fuzz bass sounding part at 1:45?

This makes me wish that we could somehow get ahold of Brian's personal movies from this era. Who knows who or what you'd see! I remember from one of the books that Michael Vosse ( I think) talks about how Brian got a Video Camera for Christmas, and they filmed VDP showing how to roll a joint (which Van had no recollection of).

That was Paul Williams, wasn't it?

Don't recognize the part at 2:16, is that the section in question?

Edit: Actually, sounds like something from the "Fire" sessions, likely between takes. Just a guess - I've heard a lot of the session stuff but not everything.

The bass part at 1:45 is what you get when you run one of the stereo versions of the 'Bicycle Rider' section from SOT 17 through some sort of phase cancellation, it's genuine and yes, it does resemble the chorus of 'I Was Made For Lovin' You' by Kiss.  The bit at 2:16 is 'Bag Of Tricks".

Paul Williams, in his book, talks about being there the day Brian got the video camera, and how they used it and when they focused in on the Christmas tree, the lights started to burn the film (I think they were stoned). I think it's the Peter Ames Carlin book where it talks about VDP rolling the joint....
