Smile by Brian Wilson

Post by Tim Tweedale »

I'm interested in what my fellow musicians and steel players think of this new album. I just can't believe how incredibly good it is. The first song "Our Prayer" blows my mind. Arrangements, production, vocals are immaculate, inspired, ingenious. Some of the chord changes and phrasings take pop ideas and spin them in such dizzying, deceptive directions. Other people's thoughts?

Here's another thread about the album. I for one can't get several of the melodies out of my head. (Certainly not a bad thing!)
