It's much easier to get a top 10 album in January than it is in November or December…

but coinciding the timing with the film is best for all concerned, moneywise.

[The Shift]

Accorig to this site, the deluxe version will, like the standard version, be a single disc only more expensive.

I wonder if it'll be packaged deluxely? Like in a white box with cardboard under a clear lid? Or with a light-up lidded box?

Hopefully the wife's details are just a default until meat is added to the bones…

Walmart says the release date is 01/03/15

They also have the non-deluxe edition and it says 1/13/15.  That seems very strange to me, but maybe it isn't.    Also, Sears no longer has it on their website, and Barnes & Noble no longer has the release date listed.  However, now Best Buy has it listed on their website with both editions being released on 11/4/14.

Considering January 3rd is a Saturday, I think it's safe to assume that's not the release date.
I would guess that the album was set go for November 4th, but maybe seeing all the other high-profile releases and/or wanting to have the album and movie close together had the release date pushed back a bit. All the different dates that the websites have up make it seem as though no one is really sure when the album is supposed to come out.

I have my fingers crossed for a November release date 

[The Cincinnati Kid]

At least it appears we might get getting a single before the month is over.

[EgoHanger1966]

I wish it was the 60s - he'd have four new albums out since the time he started recording this one 

[Niko]

But that would also mean we'd get the filler/talking tracks...not that I'd mind a break in the music to hear Brian and Jeff talk about getting milkshakes.

[Shady]

Guys come on....At this point there's no hope in hell it's coming out in November.

We gotta wait for January. Hey at least that's something to look forward to in that usually boring month 

[♩♬🐸 Billy C ♯♫♩🐇]

It's sure to sell a million units in January!

Fresh off the press, from Brian's FB page:

At a playback session last evening at the Capitol Records recording studio, Brian talked about "Pet Sounds" in a Q&A with David Wild. Brian also performed a few songs at the event.

[rab2591]

Songs from his new album were supposed to be played at that event as well.

[pixletwin]

That looks like THE Brian Wilson, if you know what I mean.

[astroray]

That picture of Brian, looks like a real picture! Not one of the hundreds of scared fake smile photos that have been put out for years. Good for him, hope he's happy!

[Jim Rockford]

He looks genuinely content and happy. That's a really good thing.

[Dudd]

That's one of the loveliest in a while.

[halblaineisgood]

Great photo. But, a true believer would know that Brian has always been happy & content -and the man doesn't photograph well.... so this is nothing to get excited about! Merely one of his occasional decent snapshots, is all. 

[Chocolate Shake Man]

Great photo. But, a true believer would know that Brian has always been happy & content -and the man doesn't photograph well....

Yeah, but, you don't mean always always, do you?

Or is that always always?

You have thoroughly f***ed me over in the head!

The Amazon link doesn't work anymore, and I can't find it on Amazon now. 

Seems to be the case for everyone. The November date was obviously false, maybe Capitol contacted amazon and told them to remove the listing.

The Amazon link is gone, but my pre-order is still there for the CD & Vinyl versions with the November 4 date on it.

[Shady]

That's a really great picture of Brian 

They must have been serving steak and cake at the party 

[Pretty Funky]

Hey we all know what he's like but to the uninitiated he looks like a drunk sliding under a table!

Go Bri!!!

[Micha]

He looks really relaxed there!



... is he doing weed again?!?
