More Goodies (Brian and Mike)

Continuing on from the previous set, here are an additional two of Brian and Mike goodies!

The Brian Wilson goodies offers some very interesting rarities: duets with Jan Berry and Rocky Pamplin, an early version of "Being with the One You Love" entitled "Doin' Time on Planet Earth" (presumably intended for the film of the same name), and some terrific-quality Sweet Insanity backing tracks and a capellas. After that it's the Andy Paley tracks, not presented in the best quality available but with alternate mixes included.

Next, the Mike Love goodies(?) contains a variety of outtakes, alternate mixes of tracks from his withdrawn First Love and Country Love albums, duets with Dean Torrence, Beach Boys covers/originals with Adrian Baker, and a few radio spots (a Looking Back with Love promo and the hilarious Arbor Day message in three versions).

Get 'em here.

The Beach Boys : Goodies, Part 1 & 2

Yellow.

Today I'm here to share something that, like my last post (Seattle, 1970), has all but dried up on the internet. Thanks to a friend's determination, I'm able to share it with you all.

A compilation of Wild Honey and Friends stuff (plus "Amusement Parks U.S.A and "Heroes and Villains" from the Lei'd in Hawaii era), there's some interesting stuff you won't hear elsewhere. Such as: "Darlin'" with a harp tag, a "Meant for You" instrumental, and a few different versions of "Wild Honey" (different mixes, certain instruments dropped out.)

The "Amusement Parks" seems to be just a work-in-progress missing a few overdubs, like Brian's maniacal laughter. The Lei'd in Hawaii "Heroes and Villains" is an interesting listen, too - it's what (seems like) is the full session tape. You can hear them recording the different overdubs, and, at one point, you can hear Brian sing "Lately, I've been eatin' so much pussy" clear as a bell.

This.
