Title: Is the "False Barnyard" ending bit from H&V, Sunshine, & H&V Sections Laughter?

Those pieces were included in the SMiLE Sessions but not in the live BWPS performances. The music isn't that far off from the holding nose laughter stuff on some versions of "Vegetables." Maybe the piece of music was meant to hint at some laughs.

I think that's fair to say.  They sound kind of happy/sad to me.....Laughing through the tears....which is very much the vibe of SMiLE circa 1967....Didn't Brian say that he intended BWPS to be more happy/positive overall and that the original 1967 SMiLE was more of a bummer?  That would lend creedence to the notion that they intentionally left them out from BWPS...
