I hope you enjoy my latest effort, a slideshow video for the beautiful 'The Warmth Of The Sun'.

If only I knew about this I would have LOVED to audition for this show...

If it's just now in development, I don't think any casting would have been done yet, except maybe getting commitments for the leads. It sounds like it hasn't even been committed to by HBO as a series yet.

COMMENT to krabklaw:

Your video shows great insight, sensitivity and a meaningful universal interpretation. High marks on the production values, beautifully done. It honors all of us who worked on the "sound track."


Good Viewing and Listening, ~Stephen W. Desper

Wow! It's so incredibly gratifying to get such positive feedback from you, Stephen, someone who actually contributed to the creation of this beautiful record. To hear you say it honors your work in any kind of meaningful way is something I consider the ultimate compliment, so I thank you so much for the kind words. Needless to say, the segment of your 'Alternate Mix' version that I used over the title serves as a perfect setup for the song that follows. It's ethereal beauty adds so much to the soul of the video. I originally had thought just to have silence over the title, but I'm glad I didn't. Thanks for your artistry in creating an alternate version that stands on it's own as a separate work of art and has it's own many many fans. You made my day with your comments; I really appreciate them.   -Bob

Is it the extended version of Meant For You? I prefer it myself. I can't understand why it was trimmed back so much for the album.

 A lot of us 'Transcendental Meditation' fans are not too thrilled about this. Cheesy

Well since this is a  Beach Boys forum, I vote for Friends. I always liked Transcendental Meditation anyway.

I didn't see this link posted for the 'Bless Me' song. It's pretty groovy Sunshine Pop.

Oh! 'Wilderness' is on Youtube too:

Wilderness:   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2t8mc5pifMs

These are both some pretty wild 60s relics for sure.

And now Goldmine premieres Snow’s take on “We’re Together Again”… https://www.goldminemag.com/news/goldmine-premieres-music-from-murry-wilson-snows-breakaway-ep

Thanks for posting that link. Too bad this song is repetitive to the point of self-parody, half-baked and tedious. Breakaway was weird and kind of cool in it's way, but this song has none of that. It goes to show that the Beach Boys magic voices could turn even a nothing song like this into something worth listening to.
85  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: Murry Wilson And Snow on: December 17, 2019, 09:36:39 AM
This does not flow as a song; very disjointed. It's very pleasant sounding though quite bizarre.
86  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: Murry Wilson And Snow on: December 11, 2019, 04:43:38 PM
I just remembered a Sunshine Pop album I downloaded many years ago from someone's blog (remember those?) by Snow on  the Epic label. It was apparently released in 1968. They have a Spanky & Our Gang type sound to my ears; typical stuff for their time. On the cover are pictured four guys and a gal. I don't have all the tracks but what I still have sounds like it very well could be the same group even though it's produced in a much more rock style. Listen and see what you think.

After hearing that, the fact that Murry co-wrote this song makes a lot more sense to me now than it ever did before. In this arrangement I hear a lot of the old-fashioned type of popular music influence that I would expect
from Murry. This is like finding a missing puzzle piece 50 years later, and it's fascinating. I really want to hear the rest. Rick Henn was a most talented fellow and I wonder how deep his involvement was.

Even though I'm not a super fan or anything, it's still cool to have a new Who album in the world. I've been listening to the preview tracks this past week and checked out some of the new tracks today on Youtube and it all sounds pretty good if not great. Spotify  is featuring the deluxe version of the album which adds three tracks to the regular edition.
89  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: The \ on: December 03, 2019, 01:16:26 PM
I'm assuming it's Brian singing the loud "Ho! Ho!"s on The Man With All The Toys. I hear the beginnings of the older Brian voice in those Ho!'s. I noticed it 'cause I've been listening to that song a lot lately.

With Thanksgiving in the books, it's now officially Christmas season in the USA, so please enjoy my new video for this delightful little Christmas ditty and Happy Holidays!

It's "Sonny, down snuff", as in addressing a much younger person. This is per BWPS. Just wanted to throw that in there. Feel free to throw it back out.  Interesting bit of editing with this combination, Mike.

Thanks for the kind comments, JK and Smile-addict.

I hope you will enjoy my new video tribute for 'Let Him Run Wild' as much as I enjoyed making it. I know that many of us here will agree that the song is one of The Boys' very best from their golden era and deserving of this tribute.

Let Him Run Wild- that one's a definite Pet Sounds precursor
She Knows Me Too Well  could have also worked

It's good.  I include cuts from it on my my Paul McCartney playlist and it just blends in. I bought this LP when it  first came out because Paul was on the cover.
98  Non Smiley Smile Stuff / General Music Discussion / Re: The return of the "What are you listening to now?" thread on: April 17, 2019, 11:12:46 AM
I recently discovered this fantastic band called Le Superhomard. Their new album Meadow Lane Park ( https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_nJ9AB27gKZ6nMDqcGUHah_TSALvS2d18w ) is manna from heaven for fans of the departed Stereolab, Komeda, The Bird and the Bee, and conspicuously absent High Llamas. If you are a Sunshine Pop or Chamber Pop fan I think you would also like their music, as it is sweet and highly melodic with plenty of hooks. If you're in the mood for a musical sugar rush, it does not get any better, I promise.

99  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / 'Good Vibrations' in new horror flick 'Us' on: March 23, 2019, 01:40:21 PM
Just got back from the new hit movie 'Us'. There is a major and ironic use of the song in a quite horrifying scene. The movie is good and provocative though not as much so as Jordan Peele's previous one 'Get Out'. Anybody else see it? What did you think of the song's use?
