ok, now this is hard.  i really love all these so much.  Those chord changes in 'here' were so fun
to learn as a budding guitarist.  taxman is one of the best Beatles tracks ever.  I have a personal
love for 'only sleeping', so Elenor, has to go for a hike.
102  Non Smiley Smile Stuff / General Music Discussion / Re: The Beatles Survivor #7: Revolver on: May 02, 2017, 04:13:59 PM
yeah, it's amazing what tape looks and one chord can do.  clever i guess, but it's time for it to move on  Wink
103  Non Smiley Smile Stuff / General Music Discussion / Re: The Beatles Survivor #7: Revolver on: May 02, 2017, 03:59:05 PM
i'm surprised the 'one chord wonder' 'tnk' has come this far to be honest!
104  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: Does anybody know the background of this photo? on: May 02, 2017, 03:03:37 PM
Definitely from '83.
yeah i would have guessed 83' too.

Brian's in there but in the lower range, i don't think there's a disagreement with that thou..

Definitely hear him but he's not listed on list that c-man posted.
  Oddly, the original source on the higher part being Brian? Jack himself some years ago. SO who knows? Funny part is, I never heard Brian's lower part before this thread so that was found by accident LOL

me too Billy about Brian.  That's why i love this investigation stuff after so many years of hearing!

this meeting was history in the making, and i'm sure none of them realized it at the time.

Roger Miller Is ‘King Of The Road’ Again In New Musical

A new musical about the life and work of Roger Miller, one of the greatest, and funniest, stars of classic country music is now running in California. King of the Road: The Roger Miller Story is playing at the Laguna Playhouse in Laguna Beach, Orange County until 14 May.


http://www.udiscovermusic.com/news/roger-miller-king-road-new-musical?utm_source=ka&utm_medium=fa&utm_campaign=FB%3AHank+Williams+-+Country+Legend-Editorial&utm_term=386008d3-ab5e-429f-b9fa-26a08f169305

Roger Miller was one of the cleverest and funniest guys in the business.  His hits of course are great, but he did many other great tracks.
Pretty underrated i think.

tomorrow never knows, but today i know, it's gotta goooooooo
110  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: Brian vocal for Guess I'm Dumb on: May 01, 2017, 12:36:10 AM
nah! it's gotta be Dylan, or Elvis or McCartney......maybe Johnny Cash
just throwing some names out there...  Roll Eyes
111  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: Brian vocal for Guess I'm Dumb on: April 30, 2017, 11:10:04 PM
i immediately heard 'Carl', but i'm no expert.  it's just what i hear...
clarification would be nice.
112  Smiley Smile Stuff / Polls / Re: Discuss Every Beach Boys Song Day By Day on: April 29, 2017, 06:42:15 AM
one of my favorite things they have always done, wish the boys did more in this style.
5/5.  Better than the 'freshman' in my opinion.  how Brian worked these intricate things out
at his age, still baffles and excites me.  I'd love an 'accapella' BB/BW album!

woowwwwww! Brian doin' 'here comes the night'. yeahhhh!
114  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: Brian vocal for Guess I'm Dumb on: April 28, 2017, 09:45:58 PM
that's gotta be Carl on the top, and Brian answering back an 'octave'? below with that husky voice
115  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: Brian vocal for Guess I'm Dumb on: April 28, 2017, 07:17:43 PM
surely there must be multitracks for 'marcella'.  would have had 16 track at least by then.
116  Non Smiley Smile Stuff / General Music Discussion / Re: The Beatles Survivor #7: Revolver on: April 27, 2017, 08:32:35 PM
at this stage, looks like 'Range' may get her wish haha LOL
117  Non Smiley Smile Stuff / General Music Discussion / Re: The Beatles Survivor #7: Revolver on: April 27, 2017, 07:38:26 PM
'for no one', well me at least  Lips Sealed
118  Non Smiley Smile Stuff / General Music Discussion / Re: The Beatles Survivor #7: Revolver on: April 27, 2017, 05:53:07 PM
i hear what Emily is saying, i think i understand what she means.  
it's like comparing 'surfin usa' to 'cabinessence'.  which is better?
surfin usa for it's simple catchy melody and great vocals, or cabinessence
for its full luster of harmonies and vocal parts and intricate arrangements.
your gonna get two sides to that, simple verses complex.
these Beatles songs are difficult to throw out, cause they are so good!

120  Non Smiley Smile Stuff / General Music Discussion / Re: Understated instrumental breaks on: April 27, 2017, 03:53:31 PM
Perhaps the archetypical less-is-more instrumental break is the one in "Don't Worry, Baby".

There are more, of course. Take the wondrous break in Kim Weston's "Take me In Your Arms":

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVkXrimUidA

All further suggestions welcome, even if it's a Beach Boys track (this division into BB and non-BB topics, although understandable, can be a little stifling at times).

Don't Worry Baby!  that solo could not have been any better, as minimal as it is. 
Love that tone of the guitar too, it shouldn't work, but it's an amazing change to the usual.
A perfect song.
121  Non Smiley Smile Stuff / General Music Discussion / Re: Happy birthday Chuck Berry! + new album on: April 27, 2017, 03:50:20 PM
Chuck is firing on all cylinders!  Can't wait to hear the full album.  Does this mean Bear Family will have to
update and reissue they're fabulous Chuck Box Set?
122  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: Brian vocal for Guess I'm Dumb on: April 27, 2017, 03:48:14 PM
that would be a great find eh?  but as far as i know, there is no known lead vocal by Brian in existence.
only what we hear on the tag of the song.  As far as Brian goes, he said somewhere he doesn't even
remember the song at all  Huh
123  Smiley Smile Stuff / General On Topic Discussions / Re: blow up giraffe - i want one! on: April 27, 2017, 03:45:55 PM
they are seen in the BW tour VIP's when they get their photo's done.
i want one!
not for any obscene reasons guys  Roll Eyes haha
it looks cool.

I don't think it's a blow up.

https://s3.amazonaws.com/files.websitetoolbox.com/122328/3086911
oh wow!  that's even cooler!  i always wonder where these things end up after a tour, hopefully not in the bin.  Undecided

when was the last time Bruce strapped on a Bass Guitar?

If it's literally a case of only strapping one on as opposed to actually playing it, while he's probably done it even more recently for some TV appearance or another, there's this infamous 1998 Al-less Super Bowl gig:



I think this question came up a long time ago, and I think the early-mid 80s was the last time Bruce was regularly actually playing the bass at all during shows, and even then it was usually only for a few numbers like "Barbara Ann."

What caught my eye in that photo, is Bruce is playing a 'Squire' knockoff of a 'Fender' bass.  They are a cheap instrument, not to say that they are all bad, but
it just feels like they found a bass hanging around and said 'throw this on'.
