SMiLE RADIO SHOW 1/29/89

SMiLE RADIO SHOW 1/29/89

From: "Sunday Night Idiot Show" KFOG 104.5 on 1/29/89. This show had interviews with guests Domenic Priore and "Beach Boy Pete". The most interesting thing is that Domenic played his own 1989 version of Smile, which today sounds very bare, indeed - But it reminds me of the limited amount of SMiLE material we had in 1989. This is the whole show and includes artwork.

Unfortunately, this is one of those old cassette "copies from a copy", so the sound quality ain't great.

BBC SMiLE RADIO SHOW 8/13/95

SMiLE RADIO SHOW 8/13/95

From: BBC Radio 1 on 8/13/95. This is a BBC Radio show on SMiLE, which plays several interview soundbites. It gives a very good overall history of the album, considering it was still 9 years away from an official release of SMiLE! This is the whole show and includes artwork. Pretty good sound quality.
