Hey everyone. Here's a new video. It has a short clip of me playing an archtop part that is buried on the Pet Sounds instrumental. It also has a request: I need a new recording laptop to keep making these videos. I can't afford one on my own, so I am asking for help. If you like what I am doing, any amount is very helpful. And I promise that any donation would go only to the recording setup and nothing else. You can donate here: gf.me/u/xfaccvAnd here are some audio goodies to say thank you for paying attention. They are not finished products like the videos would be, but I hope you'll enjoy them. Here is a rough performance and rough mix of my transcription of the three guitars on "In the Back of my mind." Carl played 12-string Rickenbacker, Bill Pitman played an archtop, and Billy Strange played the tremeloed lead. You'll hear all of them in splendid isolation here (sadly I am not Carl, Billy, or Billy...) voca.ro/iY3ohnEL6mMAnd here is the last thing I was working on before the computer gave up the ghost: voca.ro/mDwTw5k7fn6It's the isolated 12-string guitar parts from You Still Believe in Me, as transcribed and played by me. When I get up and running again they will be part of a very special video series about the guitars of Pet Sounds. But for now, enjoy that snippet. I have much more in the works over at my youtube channel, assuming I can get recording again. Lots of isolated performances, transcriptions, and production breakdowns. And soon I'll move on from guitars. We'll talk about basses, keyboards, strings, winds...percussion--you name it. If the Pet Sounds box set stripped a layer back, I am doing a full autopsy on Beach Boys productions to make them a truly 4 dimensional experience for us. I hope you'll join me. Thanks for reading!

It seems that the gofundme link links back to this topic, or is it my phone going bananas?

Is there any way you can retroactively post these videos in spring 2016? Man...they're too good. I could have used them when the ensemble I was in performed Pet Sounds!

Well, now people will have them to reference in the future. And that is certainly something I'm glad to help with: preparation for performances of these works. So many people play things "wrong." And though re-interpretations can be cool, sometimes it's just better playing the original chord, or lick, or whatever.

I see more than three quarters of the target figure has now been donated!! Although JH's GoFundMe fundraiser is linked all over the place, it can never get enough publicity for that final push, which is why I'm bumping this topic. What's in it for me, you ask? The same as is "in it" for every serious BB fan--jaw-dropping revelations about the arrangements of songs we know and love.

Hello all--very close to seeing the light at the end of the tunnel now. I have so much to show you and play for you, just need a few more bucks to make it all a reality. My mind has been thoroughly boggled by the generosity so far. Lots of great stuff to come, from the earliest albums to the latest; from the drums to the oboes; from Dennis to Mike--no musical stone shall remain unmolested. I've got some real Fight Club, Westworld, The Sixth Sense type twists ready to shake you to your core and leave you flabbergasted.

If jk can get his act together and donate, I'm sure you can.
