I hope you'll check out my new 'Vega-Tables' video. The previous video was quite old, so this one is completely updated with all new graphics. This also completes my updated 'Smile' videos project, so it's on to something different now.

This is just fantastic.
All the video is super, but I was wondering what you would do to go along with the "outro". As that is my favourite minute of music in the world, I was expecting to be slightly disappointed.
I should have had more faith in you... you nailed it perfectly with the "presentation" of the Boys one by one.

You GET the Beach Boys, and no mistake. Smiley

I love that video and the graphics, excellent work! And it was great to get a chance to hear Vegetables again since I have not listened in awhile...what a massive track that was! As much as I love the Smiley version, wow...the version in the video is a work of art. That could have been a single in '67.

Great work! I want a T-shirt with those vegetable characters!  Grin

The Smiley Vegetables is great, but it lacks the "outro".
On the other hand, a modified version of said outro reappeared in the middle section of the wonderful Smiley "Wonderful", so I have no real reason to complain. Smiley

Aww! Glad I didn't let you down, Zenobi. Thanks for watching and taking the time to let me know your reaction.

Thank you very much for those kind words, Guitarfool. For 'Smile' fans I don't know if 'Vega-Tables' is a favorite track for that many of us. It's whimsical tone is different from the rest of the album which is mostly more sober and serious.  It's a bit of an odd duck, I think.  Still, the musical intricacy and mastery is there when you listen for it.

I generally love whimsical stuff, and Vegetables is a masterpiece of the genre. Your video manages to be as brlliant as the music, and thati's IMPRESSIVE. But no surprise, I have been subscribed to your Youtube channel for ages. Smiley

About the "outro":  it is such a dazzling display of peerless vocal wizardry that I was expecting, in the video, some kind of classic psychedelia. Instead you represent that piece of quintessential Brian Wilson/Beach Boys wizardry with that perfect kaleidoscope of the individual Beach Boys. Chapeau!

Very nice work, SB! Did you draw the veggie cartoons? And a question about the ending -- where's Bruce?

I agree about the "Vege-Tables" outro -- that is one incredible, tour-de-force of vocals! In fact, the outro has become a frequent earworm for me. I love the whole song, in all its many wacky, quirky versions.

a diseased bunch of mo'fos if there ever was one… their beauty is so awesome that listening to them at their best is like being in some vast dream cathedral decorated with a thousand gleaming American pop culture icons.

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.

Thanks, Emdeeh! I don't do any drawing for the artwork. The video is a fusion of graphic elements grabbed from all over the place, often altered to suit the purposes of the video. So the video's creation is part scavenger hunt to find what I need.
As for Bruce, i was wondering if anyone would ask about that. I did intend to include him, but ultimately decided to give the others more time, so it would allow people to more comfortably read their frames. On reflection, I probably should have found another place to give Bruce some love.
