Feel Flows box set

[RangeRoverA1]

AMW & KT's "Raspberries" = 2 different songs.

So when are we expecting the official news about this box set? Sometime next month?

"AMW & KT's "Raspberries" = 2 different songs."

officially, of course, they'd have to be, songwriting credits couldn't support otherwise.  the songname Raspberries & Strawberries first came up with how At My Window recording began

I think she meant she couldn’t hear the resemblance between the two songs

Think it’s kind of obvious now, but does this officially confirm there won’t be a copyright extension release this year?

Think it’s kind of obvious now, but does this officially confirm there won’t be a copyright extension release this year?

But wouldn't they lose the copyright on tracks like I'm Going Your Way if they fail to release them by 01/01/2020?

That’s what I was getting at. Not a lot of time to put it out though

For any digital releases, they can announce and release the thing on December 31 if they want.

Last year's 1968 releases were announced and dropped on December 7th/8th.

"Sunshine Tomorrow 2" and the live '67 digital releases hit on December 8th, 2017.

The '66 live stuff - December 9, 2016.

You get the idea.

If there is indeed a physical component to any upcoming set, I agree it's getting late for an announcement for a physical release before the end of 2019.

The physical 2-CD "Party" outtake set was announced October 23, 2015 for a November 20, 2015 release.

The physical 2-CD "Sunshine Tomorrow" set was announced May 23, 2017 for a June 20, 2017 release.

So a physical product by the end of December could still be announced based on those timelines. They could also do a staggered release (similar to home releases of films) where they put out a digital release of the set before the end of December with a physical set following a month or two later.

Good points!

This will be amazing,

Definitely have a love-hate relationship with digital music, but it would be cool to listen to the streaming version before Christmas. I doubt there will be a hard copy if Friends and 20/20 didn't get one, even if there is more "critical acclaim" for the Sunflower/Surf's Up era. Seems they only did it with Wild Honey because of the new stereo mix really.

If Al Jardine said there would be a box set named Feel Flows, then I think there's a fair chance real physical box set is coming...

Plus, I like to think Sunflower/Surf's Up era would be given physical treatment, especially if they could justify 2 CD release for Party! sessions back in 2015.

At the end of the day, I wouldn't mind it at all as long as the release, be it physical or just digital, would happen and we'd get to hear the music, though.

Need to see tracklist. Bring it.

[William Bowe]

I thought it was going to be an entire box set of Feel Flows sessions.
Bring it on!

My first assumption that was that it would be a version of Feel Flows with a four-hour flute solo, spanning five CDs.

Don't give me any ideas to do a "chopped and screwed" mix of Feel Flows

[kennyhasbeenfound]

I am hoping we get a longer version of WIBNTLA.  I would like to hear more of the outro.  So spontaneous and different from their norm.  And while I'm wishing, a mix where the guitar solo is a click higher.

[♩♬🐸 Billy C ♯♫♩🐇]

I agree. I absolutely love that outro

[Ram4]

I suppose the 4th Quarter Christmas season release having to come out ASAP doesn't need apply because they have a rough idea of how many units will ship to the die-hard fans.  The greatest hits crowd probably doesn't even know much about the 1969-71 period anyway.  That being said with Sunflower (making Rolling Stone's Top 500 albums of all-time) and Surf's Up considered classics by music fans in the know, you think there would be some promo for the set via interviews and reviews.  I think they should do a physical box (and maybe companion smaller set like Smile Sessions) and really hype it up.  It would be so great for the band's legacy especially if the masses who are unfamiliar discover this era.  And if that's the case here's my prediction:

- We will get a digital only release in December with 1969 live material (if any) and some 1969 studio sessions (APPETIZER)
- There will be a glorious Feel Flows box next year with a decent amount of press coverage and build-up (MAIN COURSE)
- There will be a 1970 December digital live release (DESSERT)

I want it digital, it’s the easiest way for me to listen to it

[rab2591]

Digital/Streaming is just fine with me.

However, if the boxset is physical and it comes with some vinyls and a nice booklet, I will likely buy it in that format. And yes, I know vinyls aren't everyone's personal preference, but it's just the way I'd like it packaged.

Wish list:

- Vocals only of WIBNTLA backing vocals
- A decent sounding version of the backing vocals for Til I Die
- Anything that has to do with 'This Whole World'
- Any demos for any songs from this era
- Brian's Til I Die piano demo
- The list goes on and on

Cannot wait for any official word about this release.

Yeah, I'm pretty stoked for the version of This Whole World with the alt tag that was featured very briefly in that airlines commercial they did... that seems like a real lost gem.
