Title: Beach Boys do Starbucks; another comp (is this new?) Post by: JoeP on June 16, 2006, 01:25:50 PM Sorry if this has been mentioned:
Allmusic: Quote Avoiding the popular if slight surf and sun confections of the Beach Boys' earliest records, the Starbucks release Summer Crush: Songs We Love to Love is a surprisingly thoughtful and eclectic collection spotlighting Brian Wilson's most far-reaching songs and productions from his halcyon 1964-1973 period. The landmark Pet Sounds and its ill-fated follow-up, SMiLE, are well represented by classics like "God Only Knows," "Caroline No," and "Surf's Up," while lesser-known efforts from the early '70s like "Sail on Sailor" and "Friends" also make the grade. Though at only 14 tracks Summer Crush is absent any number of key moments from the period in question, at least its producers had the good sense to install a 1973 cutoff point, sparing listeners the horror of latter-day missteps like the godforsaken "Kokomo." Maybe it's not new, but I haven't seen this before and I check out the starbucks cds often. Tracks 1 I Can Hear Music Barry, Greenwich, Spector 2 Don't Worry Baby Christian, Wilson 3 Sail on Sailor Almer, Kennedy, Rieley, Wilson 4 God Only Knows Asher, Wilson 5 Surf's Up Parks, Wilson 6 Wouldn't It Be Nice Asher, Wilson 7 Friends Jardine, Wilson, Wilson ...

Post by: Roger Ryan on June 22, 2006, 09:55:29 AM If you remove "I Can Hear Music", "Don't Worry Baby", "Cool, Cool Water" and "Disney Girls (1957)", then add "Heroes & Villains", you'd have the same track selection as the 1975 Reprise "Good Vibrations - Best Of The Beach Boys" album!
