Thanks Mikie, didn't know about Tennesse Waltz being on the Spring album as haven't got around to getting the Spring album and I forgot that I have the Party! outtake of One Kiss Led To Another - I guess we all know about Sweet Little Sixteen but that compilation still has a misleading title.
Oh and Disney Boy, regarding the low brow humour I did wonder what Australian fans would make of the title 'The Roots of the Beach Boys' - in Australia this would translate as ''The F*cks of the Beach Boys'!
If only it'd been called 'The Origins of the Beach Boys', then my gag would've worked somewhat better

Thanks for the clarification, Paulos, I certainly had translated as above and was expecting a box set just to cover Dennis's input/output, let alone the rest of the gang

The contents of which are a copy of Fleetwood Mac's Rumours and the American Spring album?

All roads lead to Kokomo. Exhaustive research in time travel has conclusively proven that there is no alternate universe WITHOUT Kokomo. It would've happened regardless.

Maybe they couldn't get the rights to include some of those obvious ones, or it cost too much to use them? Of course obvious ones to fans would be "Underwater" "Barbara Ann" and the like, and obvious ones to Smile fans would be "Gee", "Work With Me, Annie", and "The Old Master Painter"...but that stuff might be too obscure...although who would actually buy this compilation besides more devoted fans who could connect the BB's to these songs?
I have to question some of the versions of these songs - often when a more obscure version is included it means that record was cheaper to use than a more familiar recording. Like "Bluebirds Over The Mountain", I'd think the Ersel Hickey original might be the first choice for a set like this since it was technically a "hit". Unless one of the Wilsons specifically mentioned Valens' version.
And how about DION doing Ruby Baby??? THAT was the version that the BB's vocals seemed to be copying more on the Party version than the Drifters, at least to my ears...again I'll stand corrected if one of the band members has cited the Drifters' take over the more familiar Dion version, but I doubt it...
What's Work with Me Annie and what's it's correlation to Smile?
BTW, where's the Beatles on the
Roots disc
? Should have the whole
US version
of
Rubber Sou
l on there.

idk but I think the Beach Boys version is far superior to the Ronnettes (sorry Phil, don't shoot me!
)
I think it's also more well known than their original version.
Also, She and Him's version feels
very
inspired by the Beach Boys' version.

It's this, right? An original version of it says 'Work With Me, Annie'.

Now I'm really confused! I know the song you posted from Back to the Future (playing on jukebox when George McFly talks to Larraine about being her density)...so how does it fit into Smile?

This is a 'public domain' comp. Meaning, in the UK, music made 50 or more years ago, the copyright has lapsed, and certain labels take advantage of this by releasing CD's of music with material from 1962 and earlier. That's why there's no "Be My Baby", or "I Can Hear Music".

More of a 'songs the BB covered' comp if you ask me - a pukka 'roots' album would include "Jennie Lee" by Jan & Dean, "Underwater" by the Frogmen", "When You Wish Upon A Star" by Ukulele Ike, "Stranded In the Jungle" by The Cadets and of course, "Shortenin' Bread" by, oh, anyone.
Oh, and the obvious one is missing.
Fanny Mae by Buster Brown
That too, but I'm talking the screamingly obvious one.
Their Hearts Were Full Of Spring?
There are lots of these 'The Roots Of...' compilations - Elvis, Dylan, Stones, Beatles, no idea if they all follow a similar format.
Yeah the Four Freshmen was the most glaring omission to me as well. Interesting concept for a collection album.

I would say at least a surf instrumental plus Runaway plus Why Do Fools Fall In Love and of course BE MY BABY but Roots of the BB really doesn't describe the compilation. Oh well....

The Ronettes' version was produced by Jeff Barry. Nothing to do with Phil

I agree, far superior. Carls voice on this is one of my favorite of his.

The entire series of 'Roots Of' CDs have the same look. Nice to see we get the obligatory woodie and surf boards.

Got a couple of "Roots Of..." CDs that look entirely different. Maybe it's not the same label or series or whatever.

That's obviously the same series in which the Beach Boys CD appears. Yes. But like I said, guess the compilations I have are not from that series. Actually, I've never even seen that design.

Got this CD through the post today, the liner notes are by Dave Henderson of Mojo, who manages to make some incredible mistakes, for example "Their debut set Surfin' Safari from 1962 included a version of The Gamblers' proto-surf instrumental 'Moon Dawg' as well as Eddie Cochran's party starting 'C'mon Everybody....". How the hell does he manage to confuse C'mon Everybody with Summertime Blues? They may have given us the glorious Cabin Essence/Wonderful yellow vinyl but Mojo sure do have some sloppy writers.
