    you totally hit the nail on the head, capitol should release all the album sessions on the net, its a crime for it all to just be sitting in a vault!!

    A fantastic insight of hearing Brian ‘live’ in the studio .. the viewer / listener feels like a fly on the wall. Great montage of photos, nice out-takes, and great horn section & bass emphasis. Helps us to better understand how this delightful song was constructed, piece by piece. We veteran BB & BW hard-core fanatics need more ‘rarities’ stuff like this up on the central BB & BW sites. Thanks for the excerpt, traderfiles !
