Hi Rocky!

Thanks mate! That's what I was looking for........

Great to see again.

All the best,

RickB

ahhh!!! Thankyou! that's it!

I tried to youtube it, but it doesn't seem to be there....

I went to the Jimmy Fallon site, and it's there, but is no longer viewable where I am..... that's Australia....

Does anyone have a youtube link for it?  would love to see it again.


Cheers, RickB

im trying to find an interview that took place during the 50th reunion tour..... and I cant find the link...... maybe its gone for good....
and I cant remember which show it was....

it was on a tv show and the interviewer was interviewing Brian & Mike.  the interviewer held up the vinyl record cover of 'TWGMTR'..... and I think
it was Brian who said something to the effect of 'Oh!! I hadn't seen the cover yet!!'.......and seemed somewhat surprised....

it was a show like Jools Holland or of that nature....

does anybody remember this or know where I can see it again???

Thankyou.

Rick Bartlett

ooh ooh........ good topic!

I love the part mostly in surfs up from......'surfs up mmm, for the tidal wave'..... until the fade, that's magic....

the tag of 'til I die' ......

the tag of 'melt away' from BW88

'don't worry baby' from start to finish hehe

I love the second verse of 'time to get alone' ...'the pine scented air smells so good in the snow, in our toboggan we'll go....
streamin down the mountain si-yide'

brains falsetto on ANYTHING...... like 'she knows me too well', 'DWB', the 'oooh oooh' mid section of 'this whole world'

so many 'horny' moments in BB/BW songs hehehe

Rickb

hey Disney.....

'sorely' missed, I mean, when Carl passed on, the whole sound was different.....
his makeup of the harmony parts and lead vocals were critical to the beach boys sound....
and I reckon he is 'magic' vocally on BB69.
Mike and Bruce do a good job...... but I saw Carl and the guys in 92, and Carl Wilson stole the show...... vocally.

Hardly the same group without a 'Wilson' in the band........

Such is Life.

Cheers, RickB

Carl Wilson makes this album!

His vocals are top form here.....

'sorely' missed from the BB sound of today...

RickB

oh and '10 years of harmony'!!!!!!

should be reissued.

Rb

great topic....

I would go with 'Frampton comes alive'..... off the top of my head

in terms of BB's?..... I love the Pet Sounds stereo/mono coloured vinyl double lp...... I think the yellow is mono, and the green is stereo....

RickB

here is a 'must have' for the BB collection....

a signed 'Summer in Paradise' CD......... that includes Brian Wilson's autograph!!

I wonder if Brian thinks or realizes what he is signing sometimes...... what goes through his head.... hehe

I do recall sometime back on eBay, seeing a BB85 Lp cover, which included Dennis Wilson's signature....... hmmmm.....

gotta laugh...

Rick Bartlett

This is a great thread!!  enjoyed reading this!.....

Keep it all coming.....

I do question the liner notes of TWGMTR.......and even vocally......seems like there are too many 'younger' sounding voices in there than just
the guys and Foskett.....and A.Baker.....
is there a thread on here somewhere 'pulling apart' the vocals on the album? it just sounds to me, the like's of Sahanaja/Bennett etc may be in there also...


RickB

I had this years ago on VHS, but has it ever been released on dvd?

I don't have a copy of it anymore, and havn't seen it in Years!...... I remember ML making an appearance, but that's about all I remember of it...

is it available online anywhere?.....

anybody seen it and have any thoughts on the movie?

I can't even remember if it was any good or not......

Cheers, RickB

I guess they have to leave some stuff off, so they can put em on "MIC" part2!!!

except, we'll probably have to wait another 20 or 30 years for Capitol to release it......

lucky we have 'other' recordings in the meantime ...

RickB

Yes Don, I agree....... I enjoy hearing the perspectives of everyone....

and I think 'guitarfool' has a point..... if things were tracked digitally with 'limiters, gates, compressors etc, improving the sound
would be near impossible, and remixing would be a waste of time unless they are producing it for a complete reworking like say an
'imagination - unplugged' for example... like what they did with the beatles 'let it be' naked...... completely different project

I wouldn't mind seeking out a copy of the MFSL audiophile cassette version though.....that sounds interesting...

Thanks everyone, and keep the posts coming!

Cheers, RickB

Hi Don, thanks for the info.......good stuff.
got to thinking about remixes.......look what a little polish did with Pet Sounds with the stereo remixes....and how sweet they came out...even the stereo Smiley Smile is charming......among others.....
I know its a different era and whole other can of worms....
but, I don't know, I just had a vision of how 'imagination', and even some others, 'BB85' could sparkle with an update....
and dare I say it.....'summer in paradise'.......
now if I only had those multitracks!
hehe

Rick Bartlett

i would doubt it was recorded analog, which if it was, they sucked the 'soul' of the sound right out of it ....still, with a remix using analog gear
would improve it me thinks......amazing what they can do!...... not that it is likely to happen, for an anniversary like its '50th' birthday, what that's....2048? hehe

I wonder is 'TWGMTR' used analog tape at all?......some artists still choose to work on pro-tools or digital medium, then mix the stereo master
down to tape to give it 'that sound'.....

Rick Bartlett

ahhh yeah!  the 45!  forgot about that one! it's got the accapella version on the flip if my memory serves me right...
I've got it here somewhere.......i'll have to have a hunt....
thanks for the refresher!

RickB

i was noticing how people were saying how much they enjoyed the vinyl 'TWGMTR' over the Cd version..

There are some who don't like it for it's 'digital'ness or whatever you wanna call it.

Do you think a vinyl re-release would change that view?

I personally love it....... I only bring it up, cos I was recently playing the album through some older analog gear..... and it sounded somewhat better...

thoughts?  :smoking
