SMiLE: Final movement is breathtaking

The final movement of Brian Wilson's SMiLE project is online this morning, one week before the CD goes on sale. It's a breathtaking completion and realization of Wilson's dream of 38 years ago. The most mysterious unheard segment, "Mrs. O'Leary's Cow," is an absolute masterwork of sound. Imagine the Beatles' Revolution 9 was more of a musical statement than a sound collage, and you've just about got it. But the recording ends on a much happier note, the sort of healing music the world needs right now. SMiLE is arriving right on time.
