MOJO Special Spolier

[The Shift]

 It's only the '68 multi's with Carl's vocal and possibly some sweetening that are missing AFAIK

So. What are the chances that, given Carl's notorious privacy as to his "private" life, that the 68 multis are stored away somewhere in his belongings; uncatalogued and unknown even to his children?
He took them home, "locked them away" and forgot about them

If they existed, wouldn't Billy H have interviewed them about what a sweet, nice bloke Carl was?

Oooooooooooohhhhh, I'd say, at a guess, roughly... diddly.

It just made me a little sad to think about these Cabinessence tracks and sessions and multis being discussed...remember that some of these group vocal sessions were filmed by CBS for "Inside Pop" with details like "Doyn Doyn..." noted in Oppenheim's notes, and I'm thinking unless someone has worked a miracle, these films will most likely never be seen. What better place to have them than this box set project? That is, if they were available to be had.

Am I the only one who does not want to hear any of this stuff until the whole package is released?  I haven't listened to any Smile music since the announcement was made, because I want to be as blown away as is possible when I put CD1 into my player and hit |>.

A sobering thought.

OK, now, about those (probably) non-existent multi-tracks...

I made my last Smile mix on Feb. 19 (and was pretty happy with it) but haven't listened to Smile music since and like you intend to hold out until the box comes out.  We'll see how long I can hold out as various pieces surface...

I've wondered how I and others will listen to the box...all the way through in order, or go directly to the most tantalizing pieces first...

What is a 'Spolier', BTW?

Gina (Carl's widow) returned all of the BB material that Carl had at home to BRI a few years ago.

I'm going to record it on tape( without listening, of course), and then play it backwards, so I can can get every secret nuance first.

Those f*ckers at CBS.

...only to discover that Charlie Manson really is all over the place, which will make you feel ashamed to own the set.

Has anybody posted the cover of the single yet? I looked back a couple pages but couldn't find it.

Computer speakers aren't working, but Cabin Essence sounds EXCELLENT on my cellphone's speaker.

AGD has it here somewhere.

Where can I find Cabin Essence on PC? This is URGENT, man!!!

I only listened for a few seconds thus far, but was delighted that the ADT on Carl's vocal was seemingly gone. That always bugged the heck out of me about the 68 mix. How did they pull that off if the multis from then are missing?

Edit: Looking now, seems this conversation's already kinda been run into the ground. Really hoping for mix notes etc. in the liner notes for this release. If it's just from making use of a left or right channel or doing fold-downs, I don't really see the point in doing so just for the sake of being mono. I had the same issue with the Purple Chick mix, which often had strange editing choices or poor source choices all for the sake of being stereo. Granted I'd expect much more care being taken on an official release, but still. If you have a stereo section into a mono section, I think our ears can handle it as long as quality is of the utmost importance. No fake stereo as in "Soulful Old Man Sunshine" plz.

We'll see, I s'pose.

[The Shift]

You can order it from the publishers' (Bauer media) website direct as they do international shipping. Should probably be with you, oh, mid-September maybe…

Is there an echo on this board??

Yeah, was gonna check Barnes & Noble and Borders and a local brick and mortar store first before resorting to more drastic measures.....

Tomorrow, I will buy up all copies in my town. And then, out of sheer altruism, I will put them up on offer here. For a mere € 50 apiece.

Now ain't that something?

Tried around Dublin City Centre today hoping that some places got it a day early, no Luck, not even Tower records.

Gonna try on Thursday but I'm not getting my hopes up, if worse comes to worse I'll order online

[buddhahat]

Finally got the mag yesterday. For those in the UK that still can't find it, today is the official release day so you might find it's on the shelves now.

The most enjoyable and interesting part of the Smile feature is the interviews with Brian, Mike & Al, although there are no real revealing insights, beyond what we already know.

However, this quote from Al struck me as interesting:

"(Brian) wanted Good Vibrations to be the lead-off single for Smile."

I've thought for a while that GV was planned as the lead single, as it's the only song that sounds convincing following Our Prayer, to my ears. Even if it was only to be the lead single fleetingly, to be usurped by H&V, I really think initially it was in pole position, so this quote is of particular interest.
