BONUS

THE BIG BEAT 1963 (BRIAN WILSON RELATED) (2013) (@ 320

http://www22.zippyshare.com/v/44957522/file.html

This copyright extension release is a revelation of Brian Wilson at his earliest and most creative. Some of these tracks are astonishing: the sonic power of "You Brought It All On Yourself" and "Bobby Left Me," the purity of Brian's vocal on "Mother May I" which could be an outtake from the "Surfin' USA" album were it not for the wacky cackling vocal of mother (!). Who knew that "The Big Beat" was a 1963 precursor to "Do You Remember?" And we'd always read about the legendary "Rabbit's Foot" but to hear it and realize it's the backing track for "Our Car Club..." just a revelation.

This is a real treat for Brian Wilson and Beach Boy completists. I hope that the people behind this release, Mark Linett, Alan Boyd and others, could favor us with some liner notes somewhere along the way to help us understand more about these wonderful tracks.

Can't believe there aren't more comments on this post & the bonus. Thank you!

Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment, WAUT. I guess if we sparked a ton of debate here, we would get more comments. In fact, RYP has captcha turned off, so it's so easy to leave a comment if you want. I get close to or often well over 1000 DL for the actual shares here, and 400-600 DL for Bonus stuff. So it's funny that we usually get only a few comments. But I'm grateful, some of my favorite sites get close to zero comments.

Thanks
I try always to say thank you, my mum is up there watching.
If you take the time to search sites and dl albums can't you find the time to say thanks.
I wonder sometimes is it just bad manners or are people scared of leaving a trail.

Gyro, thank you for all your efforts. I don't comment on every post for fear of endlessly repeating myself. However, it's true that "thank you" can't be said often enough.

Cheers - d.

Thanks for both, and ditto WAUT's comments: There doesn't seem to be much etiquette in music blogging anymore. It only takes a minute to type Thank You while the file is downloading, so there are no excuses for not doing it.
I do buy CDs and vinyl, but I can't afford it right now (at all), so your efforts are greatly appreciated.
Thanks again.

I suppose a simple thank you is due for all the DL, Thanks
