I like the track selection, but Im not feeling the flow...the 'rockin out' tracks are intermingling with the soothing tracks.

CWTL should flow into Time to Get Alone, Darlin should follow H&V

I really like CWTL right before Time to Get Alone, it sounds really good.
I just wish that CWTL was finished, it feels so sparse compared to the Wild Honey tracks, any chance of a lead vocal ever being discovered for this? I remember someone saying a long time ago that the tapes existed somewhere, but I could be misremembering.

I am completely obsessed with Willy's original idea, albeit that it's expanded in my brain by now. Work in progress: construct the best autumnal album from SS, WH, Friends, and 20/20. Ditties like 'Sail Plane Song' are allowed. Perhaps a brief instrumental interlude too, e.g. 'Til I Die' from EH.
Only demand: autumnal and peaceful.

Here's a revised tracklist, this time I've followed you and added a few from Friends which now makes a wonderful 45:17 of aural Heaven:

Can't Wait Too Long (A Cappella Mix)   0:52
Darlin'   2:15
Time To Get Alone   2:38
Country Air   2:16
Passing By   2:26
Little Pad   2:33
Busy Doin' Nothin'   3:06
Cool Cool Water   2:58
Wind Chimes   2:36

Heroes and Villains   3:40
Fall Breaks and Back to Winter   2:15
I Went To Sleep   1:39
I'd Love Just Once To See You   1:51
With Me Tonight   2:14
Here Comes The Night   2:44
Little Bird   2:00
The Letter   1:50
Can't Wait Too Long   5:34


Perfect. Now I'm satisfied with 'HCTN' too, a bit of tempo flanked by two soft ones. I go with mr Willy here, couldn't better it.

You know what really sounds cool?
Take the acapella intro to Can't Wait Too Long, and in audacity put it over Friday Night. It fits in a really weird way.
I think Friday Night/I Wanna Be Around, Old Master Painter/You Are My Sunshine all fit in on an album like this.

Audacity. If only Brian had that in '67!

Overlap Smiley and Friends and play it backwards. As it plays, try and figure out how to get world peace.
