Perhaps someone can enlighten me. The 'Brother LPs' (1970s) were reissued on Caribou-CBS-Sony on LP (1980s) and then on CD (1990 ish). At some point they then went over to Capitol/EMI, where they were reissed in 2001. Coupla questions:
1. How, when and why did this happen?
2. If they had stayed with Caribou/Sony, would they have had the deluxe reissue treatment they (mostly) deserve as per POB (2 CDs per LP instead of the other way round), plus Vic Anesini's superb mastering?
1. The Beach Boys actually hold the rights to those LPs, and they leased them originally to Caribou/Sony, and then later to Capitol.
2. Probably not.
