I was thinking of an catch all listing of the tracks & the changes within.
E.g Meant for you (extra lyrics). Something like that.

If you play California Feelin' backwards you can hear Drip Drop.

Ha ha Good answer my man 

How about an list on what extra bits of music are within the tracks of MIC box set.
And yes I've read the tracklist!!! 

Whoever & whatever he jolly well likes

Well they listened to the complete 2CD last night and read some essays and excerpts from LLVS and loved it.

So, yeah.

I started on the now old SS/WH CD, listened to SS & then read the booklet.
When reading how almost an year worth of sessions work was junked & how beautiful it was too.
Got me to find out more, reading about Smile is on par to listening to it IMHO.
Also fitting the jigsaw pieces together per Smile Sessions box set was alot of fun.
It used to be months or years before another piece became known via offical or bootleg.
Finding out and discovering Smile for yourself & others is part of the fun Enjoy.

Sorry if this has been answered before, but the photo used in the video of Brian in the pool holding up a gold disc.
Looking a ghostly pale white with extra long finger nails too. Do we know when it was taken?,
I would of said late 74 cause Brian is holding up the gold disc for Endless Summer (I think??).
Sadly one of the most depressing & slightly scary photo of Brian ever IMHO.

Thanks for this. I've been wanting this interview ever since I heard it on the "Life of Brian" set of CD'S.

The tours have been good, but lets face it, he's a 70 year old bloke who gets bad stage fright, hates travelling and is well known to be a fan of staying in bed and eating ice cream.

If I were him I'd plant some pot in the backyard, stock the fridge up, and spend my dotage getting stoned in a hammock!

Yes......apart from the last bit about growing pot of course!!

Yep recommend seeing this. one tiny fault is the Pet Sounds then Airplane breakdown scene should be other way round methinks but apart from that nerdy point loved it 

He seems to have been pretty consistent (for better or worse) since he started touring in '99...

Writing wise, if he really wrote "From There To Back Again"... well, he's as good as he ever was and would never want him to stop writing.

Totally agree here 100%.......Carry On Brian

I'm thinking he'll go when he fancies going, not when we decide he needs a rest.

I'm sure he will & I hope he carries on too. But I just want Brian to go out well & good.

I love Brian & have seen him play RFH in 2004.
But sometimes I feel that it can't be easy for him to play live.
Saying that he has done a great job & has exceeded the dreams of us all.
Maybe he could go on. but after this year he deserves to go out on a high.
Brian keeps on getting better & better so naybe I'm totally wrong.
Does anyone else feel this way about Brian too?, to call it a day & rest easy.

On the version that I don't have there is a bonus track which sounds like a demo of Your imagination with someone scatting over the instrumental verses.  It doesn't sound like Brian.  Is this Joe Thomas writing the verse melody? Any info would be much appreciated. Always hate the idea of anyone but BW writing a melody in a BW song.....

Yes that's the version I'm talking about too with this bonus track and others too.

Google is your friend for more info on Imagination stereo remix.

Seeing that we all love TWGMTR, I started listening to the Imagination album remix again that someone did via the 5.1 CD.
It's great and dare I say it but I did love the album when it was first brought out in 1999 (was it??.).
But the remix that someone did really makes its even better IMHO.
Who else has heard this and what did their think too?.

Haven't heard of this - would appreciate more info, if possible!

This is new to me aswell. I've always had a soft spot for imagination.

Indeed. I loved it since first listen - Also love the a cappella of 'Your Imagination'. Would love to hear a new mix sometime!

Yes it has also got all the a cappella of "Your Imagination", & "South American" too.
Will be offline for a few hours as I'm cooking steak for my dad on this Father's day. Cheers.
Plus just got myself a new home to move too at the end of this month too. Happy Days are here again!!!

The intro to South American is one strum of the scratchy thing with a one note keyboard bass key played after the scratchy thing. Sorry I'm no good at this I'm I?.
But it's an stripped down version of the intro

Check out your postbox. 

It's something I've found on an old hard drive, It's was something I'd picked up years ago and forgotton about till now esp with all this talk about how well Joe Thomas has done on the TWGMTR Album (and quite right too!!). Basically someone (Not me!!) had a go at remixing the Imagination album via the special 5.1 cd/dvd that come out years ago??.
A bit like oops(ing) the original album only much better e.g. Brian's Vocals up high in the mix, some background vocals mixed up too. certain parts cut out or enhaned. South American for example has an "New" intro & sounds even better than the original more truer to the great Brian sound we all know and love.

Oh man, wait till you get to The Dark Tower!   

I know and yes I can't wait too. But seeing that I've managed to collect all his books
from charity shops since nov 2011. I need to read a few more of
his books first esp ""IT"  

I would also recommend his novelette collections, like Hearts in Atlantis and Four Past Midnight.  Both very excellent.   

I' ve been very lucky in that within the past six months.
I've collected all his books for only an pound or two in charity shops.
So I've got them all ready to read.

Once again from me massive thank you from myself for all ur rem :hatixes
and the time you taken to do this and freely give it away to us.
I've linked it to my fb page got lots of positive reaction as well.
Please keep on remixing as it makes Smile seem like new when I hear
your remixes. Cheers my man

Oh man, wait till you get to The Dark Tower!

IT is fantastic,  so is The Stand,  two of my favorites.

Yes The Stand was my first SK book I've read & finished.
Now onto Salem's Lot then onto IT hopefully over the course
of this easter weekend

Beach world from Skelton crew references the beach boys

Also I think they are referenced in the body (stand by me) 

Thanks for the info. Anymore refs out there?.

I've just entered into the Stephen King Universe.
And have already spotted an Smile reference,
Within the novel "Salem's Lot" at page 202 quote "The Child Is the Father of the man".
Has anyone else spotted any other Beach Boys bits & pieces
within the works of Stephen King?. Many thanks 

That quote is from William Wordsworth, IIRC, a poet. Sorry for being pedant, BTW.

Damn I did know it was from Mr Wordworth but i suppose I just wanted to think that SK knew about Smile
