I got my copy of "Smile" on order -- who else?

Edited on Mon Sep-27-04 08:10 AM by Richardo

Being released tomorrow! :bounce:

I heard a 10-minute segment on NPR on Friday about the project and I don't think I've ever been so anxious for a record to be released since the Beatles broke up.

Sounds like it's going to be GREAT!...

1. Yeah me too

I also ordered "Pet Sounds" since I don't have that on CD.

2. I'm not really up on Brian Wilson

But is this that unfinished 'magnum opus' he finally completed after all these years, or did that already come out and this is another new one?

4. It's the unfinished magnum opus.

Contains "Good Vibrations" and "Heroes and Villians", which obviously WERE completed back in the 60s, but were envisioned as organic parts of the whole.

I didn't think I was into Brian Wilson that much, either, but the radio segment really got me excited....

5. Thanks

All the coverage it got when it was announced that he finished it piqued my interest as well.

6. I see 'Wonderful' cracked the UK Top 30 singles charts yesterday.

How cool is that?

7. Same here, the NPR segment got me psyched for this...

I've wanted to get "Pet Sounds" for years (the album that was influenced by the Beatles, which in turn influenced the Beatles, etc.), and just have never found it on CD. So I guess now I'm going to have to order both "Pet Sounds" and the legendary "Smile."

23.
