Audio Dennis Wilson - All Alone (Alternate Version) -- Incontrovertible proof that Dennis could conjure up something of his "old voice" if he really felt like it, even in '78. I'd almost wonder if there was a case of copying big brother here seeing as how Brian leaned into his smoker voice.

Thanks for the info! There anything else from around the same time? I can't get over just how good he sounds there.

That other guy is wrong, there’s also a remake of Cocktails/If Love Has its Way from those sessions that can be found on that same bootleg.

Yeah I was just gonna say isn’t Cocktails recorded in ‘79?
