The movie was meh.. I listened to the soundtrack on youtube. Not feeling it. Dont need Dont worry baby, god only knows or good vibrations yet again in my collection. Therefore I prolly will not be buying these. It's unfortunate.. I was looking forward to it.

[The Shift]

Yup, mine's marked as despatched, along with the Ricci Martin CD issue. Fortunately My gal's away Gal's weekend so might be able to let them through the door unnoticed… not sure about those AP SACDs though…

Yeah I just saw that.  What's that all about?
Thought I'd be able to get one tomorrow.

[sea of tunes]

Mine is shipped and scheduled for delivery tomorrow. Maybe they are out of stock?...  Listing mistake?...

It's not an "out of stock, will have by ______" announcement.
Oct 2 is now listed as the release date, even in the product description.

Either way I'll go to my local store tomorrow and see what up.

Now Amazon is back to saying Sept 18.

Weird.

By the way, this is allegedly getting released on vinyl for Black Friday Record Store Day.

It will probably have less tracks than the CD

Bump the oldies and the NPP number, there'll be room for the soundtrack(s).  That's no gonna happen.

Would be great to have the Paul Dano version of Surf's Up (demo) and the Smile montage + remixed water chant.
Maybe even Paul's singing lines from YSBIM and Caroline No?

Why?  It's 38 minutes.  Shorter than Sgt Pepper.  It can fit no problem.

Firstly what is wrong with Taylor Swift? Secondly she recently praised the film on Twitter to her 63 million followers.

listening to the score now. wow. this is amazing. the sequencing of the soundtrack is amazing. im stoked.

[The_Beach]

I looked at my local Target store today and they are not carrying it! Anyone eles have this problem? I dont know where to go to buy mine? :{

[drbeachboy]

Guys & gals tell me, what am I missing here? I listened to it yesterday and couldn't sit through any of the Atticus Ross tracks. While I found the score fascinating while watching the movie, I was completely bored trying to listen to it on the CD.

As a standalone product this isn't the most accessible soundtrack...definitely not like putting on some Hans Zimmer or James Horner for background music.

For me, I love the sequencing, it takes me right back to the film. That opening track ('The Black Hole', I think), with the subwoofer on high and the speakers full tilt sounds so good. The Bed Montage track has so many interesting elements, especially the way Brian's vocals are mixed for the Til I Die coda. The moments of dialogue Ross put in gets you closer to that movie experience. The forks & knives were edited to make more of a beat to make it more accessible. But these are just my reasons for liking it. Totally understandable others wouldn't quite get into it too much.

I actually love the decision to not make this soundtrack have a triumphant/memorable score ("triumphant/memorable" meaning a full orchestra playing a John Williams-esque score). The Beach Boys music is meant to be the focus of the movie; The Ross score is tasteful, it drives the movie along when it needs to...but it's not overbearing. Which is perfect for a film like this.

Is there any previously unreleased Brian music from the PS/Smile era or the Landy era on the soundtrack?

[JasonK]

I love the soundtrack, but I am really irritated that they don't have the music from when he is in the pool.  I could listen to hours of smile music mixed around like that.

Ditto. I find it curious that with the exception of GV, there's no other piece of "SMiLE-era" music on the release...

I was also frustrated that two of my absolute favorite pieces of Ross' score (Brian envisioning the vocals for GOK on the hood of the car; the first obvious auditory hallucination with "I Live for the Sun") were not included.

My question is, were there conditions from BRI or Capitol that only certain things could be used on a soundtrack release?

[pixletwin]

I thought, for sure, there would be fan edits of this by now...
