Can anybody tell what's the big deal about hearing songs you can listen anytime you like to? Everybody can pick random BBs songs to create playlist. Which leads to question - in the weird comps thread, some posters didn't like that fact about these comps. Now people say they enjoy this channel? Doesn't make sense.

Yes we can hear all of at least most of these songs on our own.
But as fans, it's the thrill of using this platform to introduce others to this amazing music.

Great station and great selections being played! I'm enjoying hearing the mix of music that is being chosen. Hopefully casual listeners of the Beach Boys will come to appreciate many of the non-mainstream songs that are being played. Glad SiriusXM finally decided to give us BB fans our own channel, even if it is only for the summer!

The songs are definitely a hair faster (which is a bit disconcerting at times), but I agree with what others have said - great mix of songs, a pleasant surprise for sure. Who would have thought we would ever hear a double-play from Love You, as I just heard, on the radio (satellite or otherwise)?

i'm really enjoying this. So it sounds like they are sticking with mono mixes when there is a choice?

My ears tell me that some are sped up and others are not. In some cases, the songs sound like they'd be nearly impossible to sing at the speeds at which they are being presented.

On my first run while driving home late yesterday afternoon, I heard the following (not in this exact order, but close):
All Summer Long (Brian Wilson Live in Las Vegas 2014)
Girl Don't Tell Me
Surfin' Safari
Marcella
When I Grow Up
Ballad Of Ole' Betsy
You're So Good To Me
Somewhere Quiet (BW)
Surfer Girl
Funky Pretty
A Postcard From California (AJ and Glen Campbell)
Sail On Sailor
I Get Around
Wild Honey
Rio Grande (BW)
What impressed me most was that, aside from the solo stuff, these were tracks where the guys themselves played most of the instruments - and in every case this included an actual Beach Boy playing the drums!
Later, I heard:
Sloop John B.
Do You Want To Dance
Pitter Patter
Cool Cool Water
Only One World (ML)
Surfin' U.S.A.
both sides of the California Girls / Let Him Run Wild single (apparently pairing a single A-Side with its flip will be a regular thing)
Matchpoint Of Our Love
And, a buddy of mine reported hearing Hey Little Tomboy (so, they were dipping heavily into MIU and earlier the CATP/Holland era).

Easy.. you don't have to make a playlist.. That alone saves time.
And I usually listen to complete albums, but for me, I think it's exciting to put it on and you don't
know what's coming up next... you hear things you may not have thought about or heard in awhile,
you hear things that maybe you don't want to sit thru an entire album to get to.. it's fun!
Last night doing dishes and they played Don't Worry Baby, Til I Die, Passing By, Marcella, etc.
No harm in this at all. Though I did hear Cotton Fields 3 times yesterday.
And yes, hopefully it will expose people to the deeper Beach Boys catalog.

Heard Al talking about their first publicity photo. Thought I heard him say they were wearing yellow tuxedos?
He was asking if anyone out there had a copy of this photo

Does anyone think that C50 live stuff was declared off limits? (Wasn't sure because of the discussion in the other thread about future live/archival releases.)
I'm having weirdly too much fun taking random screen grabs of tracks, but here's one that confirms they're playing tracks from the C50 live album:

A random run of songs from last night:
Not sure if this was a momentary glitch or if someone absconded with the artwork for "Love You":

A satellite radio station or a streaming stations/service is not the same thing as a commercially-released compilation. The former is by definition something relatively random (again, keeping in mind they surely use various algorithms to program the station), while the latter is something expected to be molded to make for an enticing purchase.
I'm not even sure how "big" of a deal anybody feels the channel is. It's more objectively a big deal for the BBs and their brand and PR and all of that, and it's fun to check this channel out and view it through the prism of a more casual fan or new fan (or random observer), and it's fun to see the channel for the same reason someone might find it interesting to catch a movie they really like on TV and perhaps note how weird it is for such an obscure movie to be aired on TV.
Also, however much we *can* hit "shuffle" on our collection at home (and that's only assuming a bunch of things; most immediately that one has put their music on a device where they *can* shuffle it), how often are we essentially *forced* to listen to a random stream of BB songs? Especially for me, because I'm streaming via the free app, I can't skip songs (well, I'm allowed a few skips per hour I believe, but that's it), so it's a different experience than shuffling my IPod, and certainly different than picking various CDs off the shelf.
I'm guessing some folks here don't have a huge list of fellow BB fans who they hang out with all the time and shuffle BB songs for them, so this is like visiting someone and being beholden to whatever they pick. It's fun, nothing more.
C'mon, how many people have stopped and watched some of a movie on TV even though they have the DVD/Blu-ray in their collection? You're half-way through the movie and you're going to watch 30 or 45 minutes. Are you going to go grab the movie off the shelf every time, or just watch it on TV for a little while?
Rocket science this ain't.

Very cool! They just played California Girls, which was proceeded by some chatter from the Party version and the album version. It ended with Brian saying let's do one more Take 44. I really want to hear the session chatter from Help Me, Rhonda lol.

Considering that the station is offering a wide variety of the entire catalog plus live tracks, rarities, and solo offerings, it might introduce casual listeners, who might check out the channel hoping for simply a soundtrack to a summer drive or cookout, to songs they wouldn't have heard other wise.
As a fan, it's cool to hear something like Postcard from California, All I Wanna Do, Crack at Your Love, Cool Head Warm Heart, Bluebirds Over the Mountain, Only With You, etc on the radio in the car, without having to put in a CD or plug into my Spotify.
It's a win-win-win

Not that it's surprising considering they appear to be pulling stuff from anything that has ever made it out on CD, but I've seen the first instances of tracked pulled from DCC's "Lost and Found" and Brian's "Live at the Roxy Theatre." Also even saw "Barbie" last night pulled from that Varese compilation "Surfin'" from 2000.

I heard the following 3 songs:
Cocktails

Wipe Out
Wide variety to say the least :-)
