DJ Babs:

No derek says he does not!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:23pm
DJ Babs:

you must tell us about Yuri Caine
  8:29pm
Tyler:

Yuri Caine does all these crazy jazz fusion Gustav Mahler covers with lots of interesting arrangements and occasionally heavy drumming. Kind of like John Zorn but less aggressively atonal.
  8:30pm
Tyler:

Anyway, Mrs. O'Leary's Cow would not be out of place on one of Yuri Caine's albums...
Avatar 8:33pm
Mr Fab:

Wilson says that "Mrs. O'Leary's Cow" was the sound of what was going on in his head at the time. Yikes.
  8:34pm
Tyler:

For those that like/love (not Mike Love) Smile - the first Van Dyke Parks album 'Song Cycle' would be in your wheelhouse.
  8:36pm
datafreq:

I rabbit holed after the Brian Wilson track and had no idea that Good Vibrations is put togther from hundreds of different parts and tape edits. With headphones you can really hear the cuts and edits. Never noticed that before. Lessons from Echo Beach lol

Hey NsKwyet!
  8:37pm
Tyler:

@datafreq Supposedly Brian got so overly consumed in the sessions that he had to be physically prevented from burning all the tapes. A similar scenario happened with Mike Oldfield & Brian Eno...

NsKWYET... never seen it written that way... love it
  8:38pm

If you really want to get into Brian's headspace there's a box set that includes all of the musical cues he was working with to assemble the album :)

Multi-tracking on analog tape every once in a rare while it will degrade so beautifully that you could never repeat it on purpose...
