Beyond my frustrations with the "move along, nothing to see here, nobody knows, etc" mindset that I mentioned here earlier, what amazes me about this box set issue is to see just how many artists have been releasing deluxe box sets in 2020, and how many more are in the pipeline for release in the coming months. And a lot of these are artists who are much more of a niche market and a smaller audience than the Beach Boys.
It's confusing to see an issue of "demand" being mentioned regarding the BB's box set while artists who would sell far, far less sets do not seem to have a problem releasing these sets to their fans. And it's not like these other, more niche deluxe sets are CDR's packed in white window envelopes or something.
Further on that point, as we had cartoons and memes circulating back in early May about people stuck at home "finishing Netflix" and similar jokes about running out of things to do during this mess, what better time would there be when the audience for home entertainment and home media is currently as large as I've ever seen it since the dawn of the internet.
Again, I just don't understand what the resistance is with this one. I cannot understand why the fans should need to convince someone or something within the band that fans will indeed spend money to buy this set if it's released. Absurd.
Maybe being too demanding isn't the solution here

Hey all. With being trapped in my house the past few weeks, I have decided to come up with a double album tracklist combining Friends and 20/20. This was inspired by the excellent alternate history essay "Tales Of An Alternative History". Let me know what you think and make some suggestions!
Side A: 1. Meant For You (Made In California) 2. Friends 3. Wake The World 4. Be Here In The Mornin' 5. When A Man Needs A Woman 6. We're Together Again (Made In California) 7. Passing By Side B: 8. Anna Lee, The Healer 9. Little Bird 10. Be Still 11. Busy Doin' Nothin' 12. Diamond Head 13. Transcendental Meditation Side C: 14. Do It Again (Made In California) 15. I Can Hear Music 16. Bluebirds Over The Mountain 17. Be With Me 18. All I Want To Do 19. The Nearest Faraway Place Side D: 20. Cotton Fields (The Cotton Song) 21. I Went To Sleep 22. Time To Get Alone 23. Never Learn Not To Love 24. Can't Wait Too Long (Made In California) 25. Break Away (Made In California) 26. Celebrate The News (Made In California)
I would save Celebrate and Break Away for the 1969 album, Maybe have both versions of Ol Man river, one in side C and the other ending the album

You don't have to put the word So, for the past couple months, a local record shop has allowed me to scoop up all of those "collector's album" LP's, where fans had put out hard copies of the unreleased Beach Boys albums. I now have most of them - both editions of "Smile," both editions of "Adult Child," both editions of "Califo(r)nia Feeling", "The New Album", "Merry Christmas", and the 'random unreleased tracks' comp "Carl And The Passions: Made In USA."
One problem.
No "Landlocked."
I actually asked the store today if they'd seen that come in, and they were fairly certain they had sold it (he asked "that had a tan cover, right?"). I took to eBay, where - for the first time I've seen - they DO have a "Landlocked".... in not great condition, and priced exponentially higher than it should be. (The other albums in the series have cost me about 25 apiece. This was well over 100.)
So, being a Beach Boys forum, I want to put feelers out - does ANYONE have a Brother Records "Landlocked" to spare? Name a price. If it's under 100 (including shipping), I'll buy it.
Comment: There is no album "Landlocked." It is a myth fabricated by the fan base. This subject is covered in my book Recording The Beach Boys in the addendum to part one..~swd You really don't have to put the word Comment before everything you say you know
