If you're a BB fan, Daniel, you might be interested to know that they hardly ever actually played on any of their records. That was done by some session musicians known as "The Wrecking Crew".

Hi, Rog !

Thanks for your kind comments !
You know, Rog ! The BB:s and maybe
even more Brian Wilson and his band
are doing a come back (they already did),
but Brian is working on another solo album
this moment ! I hold the opinion that
good music will always stay on somehow, even
if the taste of the generations alter as a whole ?:)

Cheers
Dani

Yes, Bob, I know, but you know, I have always
been most fascinated by Brian Wilson´s music,
may it be performed by anyone. Nowadays he uses
quite a big and good backing group that really
can do justice to his compositions !:))


Cheers
Dani

Dani - whoa!! Everyone is raving about those great harmonies but do you explain how you did it? Is that all you, TC Helicon or similar software, other human singers?

Whatever it is, että on niin hyvä!!

My dear Aleck !

Thank you for your
most kind comments !
Yes, it is all me.
I started by singing
the lead twice and panned them
on both sides. Then I sung the
different harmony tracks,
starting by second and third voices
and added one to two falsettos !

All voices are improvised, which
is not so good as if I had learned them
and then sung them. You can clearly hear
that I am searching for the voice
especially in the parts that starts
with " in a long long time"....
There are 4 voices there and my old brains
has difficulty recalling which one I should
sing !!! (LOL)
I am using the microphones on my zoom H4n and
sing thru them directly on different tracks in
mixcraft (mixing program) !

I am very glad you felt it was "hyvä" !(LOL)

Cheers
Dani

Hi, Gruverider !


I am very glad you like
this little summer tune of mine !:)
I grew up with those wonderful
harmonies riging in my ears:
The Beach Boys, Brian Wilson, The Hi-Lo´s,
The 4 Freshmen, The Singers Unlimited,
Manhattan Transfer etc etc etc. Not to
mention those superb choirs as Norman Luboff Choir,
Johnny Mann Singers, Ray Conniff, Anita Kerr Singers
etc etc etc. My friend, these harmonies are a part of me (LOL) !

Hi Dani.

Glad you liked it. All credit to Eddie, though for writing the track in the first place. We only start work when he finishes the song.

Dani, I am late to the party but I’m glad I came!

It’s all been said! I liked the style and the BB style harmonies. I was thinking this fits more in those Annette and Frankie’s Beach Party movies than anything else.

Regardless this is one fantastic uplifting excellently composed and sang song!
