1. What will happen to the bonus tracks that are/were on the two-fers?

Probably be integrated into career spanning set or rarities thing, if such things exist.

Or elimated to make your two-fers a nifty collectors item.

2. What will happen to the Brother Records/Reprise catalogue?

They will be reissued like the rest of the titles at some point. Why would they stop at Surfs Up?

3. What will Dick Rising say about all this?

I do think it's silly that they're releasing a 20 song greatest hits CD now when there's already a perfectly fine 30 song comp.

These 12 songs from Sounds Of Summer were deleted (TWGMTR and All Summer Long were added):

Shut Down
When I Grow Up (To Be A Man)
In My Room
Getcha Back
Come Go With Me
Barbara Ann
Do You Wanna Dance
Heroes And Villains
Good Timin'
Wild Honey
Darlin'
I Can Hear Music

I'm certainly not a fan of Barbara Ann (to put it lightly), but it's hard to defend the exclusion of a #2 hit, while All Summer Long (not even a hit) is included...

It's good to be a Beach Boys fan. Can't wait to see the track list for the box set.

Yuck...I sure hope the box set gets a better design for a cover than these two greatest hits packages.  Horrible design.

The 2-disc set roughly mirrors the tour set.

And it's got Dance Dance Dance on it! Grin

For those who are interested, the new Christmas cover art:



Pretty "meh" IMO. But I'll get it if they're in stereo.

Not great, but I still think it's light years better than the greatest hits designs.

Looks like it should be on sale at Hallmark, right next to the candles.

a diseased bunch of mo'fos if there ever was one… their beauty is so awesome that listening to them at their best is like being in some vast dream cathedral decorated with a thousand gleaming American pop culture icons.

PRO SHOT BEACH BOYS CONCERTS - LIST


To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

Capitol must outsource the Beach Boys covers to a local high school art department.

Not even. I honestly could whip up a better cover photoshop in half an hour and I failed high-school art! (mind you, only because the set course didn't follow my artistic muse, but I digress  LOL) Seriously, who overseas the artwork direction of the band's releases? It's practically sabotage!

You're right. I had never seen this but apparently this is a reissue from 2009.

Cancelled.  LOL

I certainly hope this is true, but the press release doesn't make any promises in that regard.

This has been covered in the "2012 Remastered" thread - electronic extraction has been used to isolate elements found only in mono mixes to create the stereo. Apparently, the technology was considered sophisticated enough to give these mixes an official release.
