not sure this will work, but somebody just posted the Fire music video with the band on brian's facebook.  has this been around openly??

http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=590333984303&oid=34250497240

Not Brian's Facebook - Fans of Brian Wilson...  Smiley

And... that's the official "GV" promo - clearly recall seeing it on Top Of The Pops back in 1966.

Could be David Anderle... but to be entirely honest, no idea.

I don't know either but I wonder if it could be the mysterious Bob Gordon/Gordan? That looks like a....uhh...I forget what you call those cameras, but a still camera instead of a movie camera to me.

The trade name you're groping for is Hasselblad. How good are they ? NASA used them on the moon.  Smiley

...and Elvis Costello sports one on 'This Year's Model'. Well, he's a bit of a lunatic... Wink

Probably so, but I was trying to thinking the type of camera instead of the brand. The only one I ever used was probably a No-name-o.

Oh, I believe it's a 6 x 6" roll film camera. For professional use. Hasselblad and Zenza Bronica were prominent brands, still are. Don't know if Leica had one, they were famous for their range-finder cameras (e.g. the M6).

And that, I'd say, is why asking anyone except the principals about Smile is something of a waste of time. Not that it isn't anyway, but you get my point...  Grin

good lord.

weird how if Mike, Bruce and Al were to record some new vocals, they wouldn't be that bad with the way their vocals sound...now if there's new lyrics written, that's a different story.

If they release a smile without Brian, is that gonna upset Brian?

Well, it was an interesting two weeks of "what-ifs", now back to the reality of no summer Smile release.

That snippet gives even less info than the original source interview.  No context.  No hint as to what else was discussed, whether the chat took place on a phone or a bus, under a bar table, on a whale watching trip ... nadda.  Author or the original breaking SMiLE news Jeremy at least confirmed that he ran the original news past those who would know.

What was the question asked for this latest piece?

Interviewer: "Hey Al, how's the re-re-re-re-recording of additional overdubs for the re-re-remixed Postcard from California" Purple Chick re-re-re-remaster going?

Jardine: "I don’t know if we even have enough parts to put it together or not. May have to record some more.”

Veeeeery frustrating.

His original quote, in Jeremy's article of Feb 3?

"I don’t have many details on it, although we didn't do any new recording."

Archivist Alan Boyd and recording engineer Mark Linett are in a California studio assembling the project.  In an attempt to interview Boyd, Capitol Records replied that they were not comfortable in giving out any additional details at this time.
http://www.examiner.com/pop-culture-in-national/the-beach-boys-set-to-release-smile-the-greatest-lost-masterpiece-of-all-time

Where did this initial information come from that Alan Boyd and Linett are assembling this project?

If it is good information, we shouldn't discredit this project altogether based on Al's supposed new words.

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.

Jeez. Well. Where did this Linett and Boyd info come from? If that info is indeed correct, I believe we'll still get it.

As far this whole thing concerning vocals, I find it extremely hard to believe that they will add new vocals. Would they make "Dada" into "Blue Hawaii", "Look" into "Song for Children", etc? I highly doubt this will happen. And sure as sh*t don't want a re-recorded lead by Jardine in his 'aww-schucks" voice on something like "Surf's Up".

I highly doubt there will be new vocals. I think Al is a bit thick. I'm sure this will be just what they recorded from 1966 to 1971.

I really hope this project is still happening.
