Although not a recent interview, this one fits regarding "Feel Flows" as Brian talks about some music from that era.


Brian Wilson Remembers: An In-Depth Interview with the Beach Boys’ Resident Genius

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

Shame with the delay as the group's music is usually more popular in summertime. Hopefully won't affect sales too much!

I wonder how much effect the summer theme would have on a set like this anyway, considering the target audiences who would buy the deluxe editions of the set are more invested and longer-term fans than those who don't know the band's background history. The music they were making in 1970-71 had nothing to do with their earlier "fun in the sun" vibes, in fact they were trying to reinvent themselves and be more progressive in their music and live shows more than trying to connect with the summertime vibe crowd. It would be nice to get as many new listeners, but you have to wonder how many fans who may own one or two of the greatest hits comps and that's it are going to go all out for the deluxe editions of this or any other set.

When all this was announced I thought it would be a holiday season release around November to get the gift-buying and "Prime Day" type of crowds into it too, but I guess the summer vibe does carry over into those decisions based on the band's name alone.

The summer vibe only goes so far for the rest of the planet ... down here it's bloody freezing today.

I expect that the next announcement will be that we get to hear another track from the box set.

And a random one, at that.

This just in, Surf's Up acapella mix now up on YouTube, from other sources. Sounds yummy! There was a booted version of this a couple of years back, in much poorer quality, which had an extra section in the tag + studio chatter at the end, but the extra section featured a prominent sour note, which may have been why they faded it earlier on the release.

It appears to finally have been officially released on Amazon and Apple Music. The Acapella on Youtube is just the version accidentally released on Qobuz, "remastered" by the uploader.

COMMENT:   I don't know what all the fuss is about, but you will find an acapella version of Surf's Up in Part Two of my book Recording The Beach Boys -- first published 15 years ago.  It's a vocal-only mix I pulled many years ago. The book is still available for reading at another message board.   ~swd

I keep seeing a two cd Japanese import of Feel Flows that allegedly has exclusive bonus tracks listed on Ebay. Any idea what the "exclusive" tracks are?

Disc 1
+ Sunflower Promo 1
Disc 2
+ Surf's Up Promo

It looks like these tracks are "hidden" - but may appear following the album remasters, rather than at the end of the disc. It's all pretty unclear to me.
This info gleaned from various retailers websites.

Eg. https://diskunion.net/rock/ct/detail/1008322706

Of course these tracks will also appear on the 5 CD set anyways!

Seems like it's a bit of marketing deception from the Japanese??? [No offense to anyone out there - love Japan!]

Does anyone know if the vinyl sets will come with a download card?

Thanks!

"an in-depth article about the fabulous music the Boys made without their de facto leader as he became increasingly absent following the relative commercial failure of his 1966 masterpiece, Pet Sounds."

I forgot that Brian had little do with Smiley Smile, Wild Honey, Friends, is co-writer on only 7 of 12 songs on Sunflower. For whatever reason this post-Pet Sounds mythology about Brian still exists. I guess headlines aren't as flashy without the name Pet Sounds in them?

Outside of that, I am stoked that the guys are getting some much deserved credit for their creative work where Brian wasn't at the helm. I can't wait for this set!!

Found it. Interesting. aside from the lyric change, it's also very dry. Nice to hear that Rhythm King (Go Go setting) soloed.

Four star review by Andrew Male in the latest Mojo. Most interesting bit for me: "Won't You Tell Me is an engulfing romantic melodrama akin to Please Let Me Wonder ... it appears here in two versions: as a lavish, chiming Brian and Carl duet; and as a solo Brian demo, with control room interjections from his father that only enhance the pathos". He also more keen on the alternative lyrics to Til I Die than Peter Ames Carlin.

Perhaps an extra two minutes of the Rhythm King?

IIRC an article has already described it as being essentially the same (as I read it) to the Alternate Mix on Endless Harmony. So opening with the instruments building up.

EDIT: It's the Uncut article, which states "A stretched-out version of the august “’Til I Die”, with a lingering bass and vibraphone intro, attempts to inject Brian’s existential crisis with a misplaced feelgood factor."

Oh yeah.....👍

According to the producers, they hope the upcoming set does well, so they can continue creating boxes like “Feel Flows.”

“There’s still some amazing material in the vaults. We would love the opportunity to share it with everybody.”
