#130 – Mark Linett & Alan Boyd – SMiLE Followup part two

We continue our follow up conversation with Mark Linett & Alan Boyd, co-producers of the SMiLE Sessions box set.  They answer more of the questions that you submitted to Icon Fetch, including why there was no sessionography for disc one of the set, why they included Carl Wilson’s vocal on “Surf’s Up,” if they used all the pieces recorded for “Heroes and Villains,” and what’s next in the Beach Boys’ reissue program.


 

#128 – Mark Linett & Alan Boyd – SMILE Followup part one

The Beach Boys’ SMiLE Sessions box is out now.  Co-producers Mark Linett and Alan Boyd return to Icon Fetch to answer some of the questions you have – including what happened to the background vocals on “Barnyard,” what, if any, songs Brian Wilson nixed from the album, why there isn’t a stereo mix of “Good  Vibrations,” and how they assembled “Heroes and Villains part two.”  Listen to part one of the interview:


Part two will be posted in a week.
