Hi, I'm Brad and live in Australia.
I thought i'd introduce my self to the forum.

I became a Beach Boys fan last year after hearing bits of Pet Sounds on YouTube. I looked it up because Paul McCartney was always going on about how great it was, He was right. So i bought the Pet Sounds cd and now I love it. I have bought more cds since then and the Beach Boys (equal with the Beatles) are my favourite band.

In case you're curious i have (i'm still working on my collection)
Original Collection:
Pet Sounds (2001 Mono/Stereo)
Fifty Big Ones
The SMiLE Sessions (2CD Box)
Today/Summer Days
Smiley Smile/Wild honey
Sunflower/Surf's Up
Carl and the Passions/Holland
Concert!/Live in London
and the Made In California box set.

New additions since then:
Friends/20/20
The SMiLE Sessions Box Set
Beach Boys Party!/Stack-O-Tracks
Good Timin': Live At Knebworth 1980 DVD
Good Vibrations: The Best of The Beach Boys 1975 Vinyl
That's Why God Made The Radio
The Beach Boys In Concert
15 Big Ones/Love You
Keepin' The Summer Alive/The Beach Boys

Feel free to give me suggestions on what to get next.

Thanks,
Brad  Smiley

Welcome Chris,

I'd keep going hard on the twofers (you can still get 'em at JB for around $15 a pop).

Have a listen to Love You.  It's a bit of a crowd splitter.

Then I'd seek out the Unsurpased Masters series, in whatever format you can find - good hunting - A

Yeah, the two-fers are great. Damn good price. I deciding whether to get the "Friends/ 20/20" two-fer or the "In Concert" cd.

Friends - 20/20 is a personal favourite; in my biased opinion, you'd do well getting that one first.

Cool, thanks. People on the forum say the version of Cabinessence on 20/20 is better the Smile version.

Welcome! As noted above always good to have more Aussies on the board.

I too would highly recommend the Friends / 20/20 twofer. Easily in the top 3 twofers in my opinion. I'd say it's the twofer that gets the most play in my house.
