This is a very special one, for a number of reasons:First, my son missed his birthday yesterday -- I mean his actual birth day. He's officially a day overdue now, which gives us one more weekend to prepare his room...so we got that going for us, which is nice. He's most welcome to get born any day now.
Second, my main man Mr. Wilson has just released an exquisite new album you may have heard about -- it was even #1 on Amazon for a minute this week.
Third, I've been looking for this live boot for ages, and suddenly it popped up today without even trying! It's a perfectly recorded -- by Brian's own engineer, Mark Linett -- NPR FM broadcast of the Carnegie Hall show from Brian's magnificent 2004-'05 "SMiLE" Tour, still one of the peak concert experiences of my life (two times: at Disney Hall and the Hollywood Bowl).
All in all, a happy time. So smile, y'all...!

Yes indeed this concert is some kind of the holy grail of live experience. Smile Live ! And a perfect soundboard.
Still there are some audience recordings from the London Concerts that are marvelous too. And I'm not fond of audience recordings but these are really almost professional recordings... Impressive.
Thanks for sharing, Derek
Thank you! Will try to track one down and maybe post in the future. The London shows are indeed historic since they were the first!
The soundstage performance on the official "SMiLE" DVD is amazing too, since you can really see who's doing what and, most important, how great Brian looks and sounds.
Cheers!
