Title: Recorded SMiLE songs performed live (besides BWPS Tour onward)? Post by: ForHerCryingSoul on February 27, 2015, 08:45:03 PM I heard The Beach Boys Vegetables and Wonderful from 1993 New York in the MiC set. I was wondering, is there any other pieces of SMiLE recorded live from the Beach Boys? If anyone could direct me to a thread or give me an answer that would be great. Thank you. :)

A live version of "Heroes & Villains" is included on the Beach Boys in Concert. There's also a live version of "Good Vibrations" on there. I don't think there's an official released version, but they played "Surf's Up" frequently in the early 70s. Title: Re: Recorded SMiLE songs performed live (besides BWPS Tour onward)? Post by: The Dumb Angel on February 27, 2015, 09:12:44 PM As far as I know, they never really performed any Smile songs live, other than the very occasional and rare performances of H&V, Surf's Up, Vegetables, and Wonderful. Here's a few from the late 60's, early 70's that managed their way onto Youtube.

Post by: Andrew G. Doe on February 28, 2015, 02:33:07 AM Um... think you'll find that "H&V" was a setlist staple from the mid 70s to 1998. Thus hardly very occasional or rare.
Also, there's this song called "Good Vibrations"... Title: Re: Recorded SMiLE songs performed live (besides BWPS Tour onward)? Post by: WickedWaters on February 28, 2015, 07:44:28 AM The Flame song is actually called "Don't Worry, Bill". Wonderbill was Mike's idea of a corny joke.
