Here Today! Songs Of Brian Wilson / Various Uk - Here Today! Songs Of Brian Wilson / Various [LP] Vinyl Record

Limited 180gm snow white vinyl LP pressing with illustrated inner sleeve. Here Today! The Songs Of Brian Wilson was Ace Records' top-selling release of 2015. To celebrate that fact, we're releasing this gorgeously packaged vinyl edition featuring a dozen of the best tracks from the CD. The collection opens with Darian Sahanaja of the Wondermints' recording of 'Do You Have Any Regrets?' a rare composition from Wilson's unissued Sweet Insanity album of the early '90s. While Wilson's version was a rather frantic Latin-styled piece, Sahanaja's is a homage to the 1965-era Beach Boys. Other highlights include superb recordings of songs from Pet Sounds by Kirsty MacColl, Carmen McRae, Nick DeCaro, Betty Everett, Bobby Vee and Louis Philippe, which prove Wilson's compositions easily lend themselves to interpretation by artists from all genres of music. Those who own a copy of MacColl's harmony-drenched 'You Still Believe In Me' single might have noticed a message etched into the run-off groove: God Bless Brian - a sentiment echoed by all lovers of great music.
