Would it be too much to ask for in FLAC or MP3? This is beyond outstanding.  The clarity is amazing, bravo my friend.

I came across a blog a few weeks ago that "offers" Smiley Smile and Wild Honey in "stereo". They sounded like pretty sweet stereo mixes to me. I never thought I would hear those albums in anything close to stereo, so they do well (of course, official stereo mixes are always ideal- Capitol will never lose money no matter how many fan stereo mixes are made imo).

Very good, Seltaeb!  I'd say equal to or better than the other guy's stereo version of the song on YouTube.

Now, about that "Stereo Good Vibrations In Progress"........   Grin

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

There have been more than a couple fan attempts at making a stereo version of "Darlin'".
This is better than all of them.
Once again, great job, Beatles backwards.  Smiley

First thing I thought of. His voice was so unbelievably amazing. Thank goodness it was put to tape and preserved.

Wow, nicely done. This is really incredible. You definitely should try your hand at remixing more of their songs.

Thanks, seltaeb! Your work is superlative as always. I would never have gotten a Smile I was 100% satisfied with without your mixes. Grin

While putting this together it was interesting to see how Brian pieced together the final edit. He used the same chorus 3 out of the 4 times (the intro is the 1st chorus without Carl's lead). You'll notice that Carl's transitional "ohhh Darlin'" is in there to bring in the last chorus, which might be something Brian would've done had edits been easier to perform back in '67.

Adobe Audition.

Note: The brass was the hardest element to extract. The 2nd verse brass was buried under a lot of stuff, but I might try to see if I can get it in there.

The main difference you'll hear in this mix compared to the others is that this one's actually "mixed". I extracted every dry element and treated the project like mixing a new song. (Added EQ, Compression, subtle tape delay, a little distortion, etc)

The other difference here is that this is the first time (from what I've heard) that Carl's vocal is completely isolated. It took a few extreme editing measures, but I'm really happy with how the quality stayed intact.

Good Vibes is going well, I just got the 2nd verse isolated pretty clean, which was one of the main issues. I'll be posting more stuff soon.

Three things:

1. Great job!

2. Incredible how much Carl sounds like Brian here.

3. With all the crap being told about the Redwood story and how Mike was adamant about keeping Darlin' as a Beach Boy song... Does anyone really think, after hearing this, that Hutton and the others would have made a better job at it?
