Hi all...Adam Marsland here.
I got permission from one of my Karma Frog (my home studio) clients to share a track we just did here for him, very much in the SMiLE-20/20 mold.
The job was to overdub elements to the client's original analog basic track and finish it. The client had a cassette dub of the mix to work with, plus two areas where it got "psychedelic" with just backwards piano where something would have to be added.
At Karma Frog, I overdubbed 24 background vocal tracks, plus a number of instruments to the original basic track, and then did a mix accentuating the "good" lo-fi aspects of the original tape, to give it a sound similar to Carl and Dennis' tracks for 20/20. It's the most complicated vocal performance I've done to date.
The original artist's name is Tony Ellis, and the song is called "Rock and Roll (It Soothes My Soul)." I think it came out very cool. Check it out!

We can do about anything, from remote session work on most instruments (including Beach Boys-style vocals), in-studio tracking with full bands, and even entire start-to-finish album projects.
Enjoy!
