Pet Sounds makes Smile in any incarnation....stink. Dennis was almost right, he just got 'em turned around-

it's sad. Brian lost his mind and is surrounded by yes men. smile is a weak shadow of what once was. Its sad that he slipped into a drug comma and really never came out. his is a story of one of the biggest waists of tallent in history

imo the impact will be similiar to the Pet Sounds - not really a commercial success (maybe even lower than pet sounds - there was no market for it in early 67 but in late 67 maybe yes), critics probably will be very safe, but years later this album will be acclaimed probably even more than pet sounds

Though the Beatles made awesome music anyway, I would be fascinated with their response to SMiLE (since Sgt. Pepper's... was a response to Pet Sounds/Pet Sounds a response to Rubber Soul). I completely agree with you. This is why so many people hate Mike Love (since he was one of the variables that caused SMiLE to be put on the shelf). You hit the nail on the head, though, and that is the true tragedy of it all.

Can you imagine the impact this album would have had if it was released in 1967? The musical landscape from then 'til now would have been drastically different.

If Brian is right, that SMiLE is a "10" - It must be on a scale of 8!Incredible vocal and instrumental harmonics.{Click BB45s for 100+ rare Beach Boys video playlist}

The harmony piece is the piece that introduces 'Smile'immediately before the song 'Heroes and Villains'. If I remember correctly it's called 'Our Prayer'. Magnificent harmonies and Wilson at his best!! |
