SMiLE STEREO MASTER


At last!! More or less, this is my own SMiLE stereo master, by The Beach Boys. In fact, itÂīs a work in progress...IÂīm still editing and looking for spoken and musical interludes, but I think youÂīll want to hear the songs. Here we go....

SIDE A - 19:37

Intro - Our Prayer, 20/20 stereo mix - 1:05

Heroes and Villains - Cantina version, my own stereo mix, true to the original - 2:54

Cabin-Essence - 20/20 stereo mix - 3:31

You Were My Sunshine - my own stereo mix, like Harpers Bizarre Lp from 1967 (Van Dyke was there and perhaps he came with that idea!!), an old version first and then the Beach Boys rendition - 2:04

Roll Plymouth Rock - my own stereo mix, a lot of instrumental and vocal editing, backing vocals by the Beach Boys and lead from BWPS (oh, yes, sorry!!) - 3:06

Mrs. OÂīLearyÂīs Fire - my own stereo mix, backing vocals from Fall Breaks and Back to Winter and, of course, with fire effects - 1:50

I Wanna Be Around - stereo mix from Project Smile - 1:35

Heroes and Villains Pt. 2 - my own stereo mix, as I said, it blows my mind!! - 3:29

SIDE B - 19:06

Good Vibrations - anonymous stereo mix I found in the net...and itÂīs the best IÂīve ever heard, true to the original - 3:38

Wonderful - Purple Chick stereo mix, with all the backing vocals - 2:00

Vega-Tables - my own stereo mix, a lot of instrumental and vocal editing, with ALL the backing vocals in the fade!! - 3:25

Wind Chimes - an old (but gold) stereo mix, with a little editing, but IÂīm sorry because I donÂīt remember where I found it, so I canÂīt give the credits - 2:28

Chil Is Father Of The Man - my own stereo mix, and IÂīm very proud of it, backing track and backing vocals in stereo, lead vocals in the verses are the poem reading I found in youtube (why new lyrics when we have the ORIGINAL poem lyrics, by William Wordsworth?) And, anyway, I think it was the original idea, thatÂīs why there are not vintage lyrics by Van Dyke - 2:41

SurfÂīs Up - my own stereo mix, BrianÂīs demo with bygone backing vocals, Pt. 1 backing track in stereo, and Pt. 2 BrianÂīs demo in stereo, dubbing vocals - 3:43

Outro - YouÂīre Welcome, my own stereo mix - 1:08

TOTAL TIME: 38:44

Is SMiLE still alive for you?

Well, a long long time ago...
IÂīve got something new for you. After all these SMiLE years, until I could know, there wasnÂīt a true stereo mix for the In The Cantina version of Heroes And Villains, by The Beach Boys. I needed it, so I had to mix it myself. Totally truly to the original. Sit down and enjoy, and please, please, please, tell me what you think. I hope it can be a good adition to your SMiLE adiction. ThereÂīs a lot of work and love on it.

SMiLE SESSIONS SOURCE TAPE - What a return!!


Well, itÂīs a very slow return, but at least, itÂīs a return. Here it is!! The newest SMiLE issue..Sea Of Tunes Source Tape. Almost all, began here. Just for completists, itÂīs not an intoduction for SMiLE. If you are looking for extra takes, if you love and study SMiLE..itÂīs your CD. Leave your comments, or my return will be more slow....;)
Vale, estÃĄ siendo un regreso muy lento, pero al fin y al cabo es un regreso. Aquí teneis la cinta de la que originalmente se editaron las SMiLE Sessions de Sea Of Tunes. Aquí empezÃģ todo, el examen mÃĄs serio y detallado de SMiLE. Y claro, se quedaron cosas fuera, que aquí encontrareis: tomas y sesiones extra, mÃĄs musica, mÃĄs instrucciones. QuizÃĄ no sea mucho, pero en el mundo de SMiLE cualquier cosa nueva nos ha de sacar una sonrisa. A disfrutar y a valorarlo como se merece!! Y dejad vuestros comentarios, porque si no mi regreso serÃĄ todavía mÃĄs lento y ya veis que tengo mucho que ofrecer.
The following is from the liner note from this CD:The Sea Of Tunes series of Beach Boys bootleg CD's hit the collectors market by storm in the late 1990s. Never before had the casual fan had such an inside perspective on the process that built the Beach Boys biggest hits. These landmark releases allowed fans to be flies on the wall of the studios where Brian Wilson called the shots. No title was more anticipated than the legendary SMiLE sessions; whereas other Sea Of Tunes releases gave fans a different perspective on an already fully realised album, the SMiLE box set did more: it offered clues and tantalising keys to the ultimate puzzle that is the Beach Boys' most ambitious and elusive work. Today, oddities such as the "Rock Me, Henry" version of Wonderful recorded in January, the early versions of Wind Chimes and Child Is Father Of The Man, and the mysterious Vega Tables argument session are firmly etched in the SMiLE legend, but before 1999, no one could have imagined their existence. No one, that is, except the lucky few who happened to score a copy of one of the exclusive tapes that made the rounds prior to the bootleg release. The music on this CD is taken from one of those tapes. Most of it has now been made obsolete by the cleaner, more comprehensive Sea Of Tunes box set, but nevertheless it is interesting to hear it in this context. And, if you listen closely, you just might hear a few things you've never heard before; for example, takes 8 - 10 of Fire, extra takes of Child Is Father Of The Man and Wonderful, a session excerpt from Friday Night / I Wanna Be Around, and the complete backing track to Old Master Painter / You Are My Sunshine.
LetÂīs make it!!
