26) Hanszun's Recording Of Brian In Holland 1972

A very well respected BB authority claims that this recording is in fact Al Jardine. But the owner of the original tape has this to say about it:

"will you tell mikey, thanks and everybody else it was brian, it was on my own recorder. marilyn and i became friends during that time, my wife baked bread for both brian and dennis
and his family, and brian and marylin even came to my house in amsterdam, where i gave him some albums by the dutch group Supersister which he liked apparently."

Also:

"When Brian Wilson and the other Beach Boys ,recorded Holland in Holland, I lent Brian a small UHER reel to reel tape recorder, so he could have something for ideas at home...
when i got it back, when he left for the usa again, it still had some music and parts of a song on a tape."

Have fun with this one. It is made up of 3 files:
01) Daddy Dear / Suzie Cincinnati - Original untouched MP3
02) Daddy Dear / Suzie Cincinnati - Mono mix MP3 (much better sounding)
03) Daddy Dear - Labeled "Master" and completely a mystery

If anybody here can identify the person or persons responsible for #3, I will personally dance at your next funeral. Or even something better.

  1. What a stragley wierd unique piece of Beach Boys recordings! The first time through, it sounds like Al & Carl on 1 and obviously 2. There seems to be a change at 1:51, with the piano style becoming more like Brian, but it is Susie is an Al song, so I can't say for sure. Maybe more concentrated listing will help. As to track 3, it sort of appears that this is a studio attempt at soing womething with the Daddy Dear song. Any other thoughts out there?? Pete

  2. to me #3 sounds like a composite of the piano demos (with mistakes removed) with a backing track added (atleast, that's what i think) i don't know weather this was an overdub attempt by the band, or added on by fans (it's a good job either way, a truly mesmerising tune)

  3. Of course you are both right about #3. I just want to know who is responsible. It's some very good work.
