Same with "TM Song," which has a very strange arrangement.

Nobody else notices that it's also the main riff of "Wontcha Come Out Tonight?" from MIU

I Can Hear Music:

Wow. Very strange that this video was removed.
Kind of a bummer!

I'm not one for fan-made SMiLE reconstructions but this one is outstanding! There are a ton of vocals and parts I've never heard on the SoT stuff and moved and pieced around.
The segue from Wonderful into Look is perfection.
Van Dyke Parks actually retweeted the link to this today.

Check it out!

Very interesting comments about his upcoming biography. I wonder if he'll still be working with Rolling Stone editor Jason Fine.
BW says in the interview...

"Why are you writing a new autobiography now?

One guy crapped out on me, so I’m doing it with somebody else. It has to be done."

LOVED the movie. Great acting and I loved the cutbacks between the 80s and the 60s. I couldn't have hoped for anything better.
Can't wait to see it again. Both Cusack and Dano were fantastic and really got Brian.

It sounds like a doubler effect or a chorus. His vocals sound great otherwise!

They sound fantastic on both All I Want to Do and Surf's Up! Cheers to them for pulling em' out!

They sound great but you can almost see Brian wanting to crack up when those big strings come in on the bridge

Sure "stickied" means to be permanently at the top of the board so it's always there for folks to see. Really love this series and can't wait for more!

Bumped. This thread should be stickied.

Finally finished the whole thing. So great to hear all of the background stuff and recording methods. I never would have thought that some of the percussion was Steve tapping on a guitar case and Carl jangling his keys! Cant wait for the next installment.

So fantastic. Sunflower has always been my favorite engineered/mixed BB LP.
Thanks so much Steve!

Wow - these are both great. The new L&M is better than the original IMO. Gets the point across more.

I've never seen this "Official" Don't Worry Baby video from 1988. I'm pretty sure that's Alexandra Morgan in the beginning w/ Brian at the piano.

I love it. Great chords and melody. I'm a big fan of Capital Cities and this is what a lot of their stuff sounds like. Good for Bri to branch out.
Love that ending too!

If that video above is correct that this is the same Alexandra Morgan we're talking about, then I think she's also been an actress in a bunch of obscure 70s films. According to these pics - she looks the same just older...

I love when Brian just cuts it off. It's pretty awkward.

Just wondering - is the ASK Brian forum page all stretched out and weird looking?

That was not Lorren Daro.

I have no reason to believe that wasn't him...
I googled "Loren Daro Productions" and there's a LOT of stuff out there that would seem as though he's legit. He even has a LinkedIn page. I'm not sure if someone would go to those lengths to make Amazon reviews and other stuff attributed to his name.

Anyone want to do some emailing to his gmail account?

Wow. I love this. I wish BW would do more guest appearances w/ indie bands instead of collab'ing with Elton John and other "legends."

Totally agree w/ the MiC version being the definitive one. The poor double-tracking on the original is distracting.

The instrumental is gorgeous. Especially the bridge. One of Brian's absolute best moments. It reminds me of something John Barry would've done in the late 60s.

The pizzicato strings playing the arpeggio of what the guitars are doing in the verses is very, very clever too.
The outro too. Wow!

This is great!

Biggest revelation so far - Al Jardine on lead falsetto on "All Dressed Up for School" in the choruses (the "ooh what a turn on" part)

Oh man. This is a great set. The acapella stuff is breathtaking!
