It's the way first I heard it on Come Full Circle. The song sounds so empty without it.

I always thought "Smile Away" was a low level filler, barely deserving of being on a McCartney album.

This mashup though borders on fun, and I can see it at a party

 

The best mashup though remains the Silly Love Songs/Eminem combo: keeps all the good parts of SLS, removes the silly lyrics and adds on edgy vocals

I presume it was whoever uploaded it to YouTube, though I may be wrong. No info on the bootleg either, sorry.

I'd hoped it might have been the mono mix, but it doesn't seem to have any brass. Is it this Thrillington/Ram mashup?

On a side note, are Smile Away's backing vocals: "Don't know how to do that"/"Learning how to do that" - is that right? I'm sure the latter is in the first chorus, then it goes back to "Don't know..." in the rest of the song.

That was the one I have, thanks. What is that exactly? And what is this "Come Full Circle" bootleg?

I only noticed the words today.

I never had a clue what Linda was singing about there: I wondered if it was "don't know how to do that" but then some days it just sounds like random scatting: "adona-hada-dooda."

As for this trumpets version of Smile Away, I've never heard it but it sounds pretty cool, I like it when ...]]> Wed, 04 Apr 2012 17:06:15 +0100 Joe on Smile Away with Trumpets? http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/paul-mccartney/smile-away-with-trumpets/#p51706 Paul McCartney http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/paul-mccartney/smile-away-with-trumpets/#p51706 I'd hoped it might have been the mono mix, but it doesn't seem to have any brass.

It's the released version of Smile Away, but with a trumpet overdub.

Wings were a great rocking band in the early days and would be great to see them perform when raw and not as polished as 1976. Plus his voice was awesome.

Another thing lingering in the vaults gathering dust. Sometimes it makes you want to scream.blue-meanie

I just hear the released version, and the version I have, ceases to exist on the internet.

 

PS: Once again, this is my on my unknown bootleg, "Come Full Circle."
