Share your latest acquisitions of Beach Boys merchandise & stuff

[smile-holland]

just checked my database... and to my shock I noticed that until last weekend I already bought or got 89 LP's, 24 singles, 39 CD's, and a laserdisc this year, all BB, solo, related or containing coverwork ...
Amongst which:
- a whole bunch of In Concert albums (including Japanese, German and US promo's)
- a cheap German various artists collection called "20 Super Pop Hits", which includes an edited version of Surfin's U.S.A. (live from the 1972 In Concert album)
- a cheap soundtrack album called Sunburn, which includes Lady Lynda
- promotional album "Capitol Single Release No. 1114 (X-PRO 4400) which includes Gettin' Hungry and Devoted To You
- a EX+ copy of a South African first issue of Sail On Sailor (just like in the USA there were 2 issues): no stickers on the labels, which is a rarity
- EX looking copy of a Dutch American Spring 45: Good Time /bw/ Sweet Mountain
- Canadian 45 of The Sunrays: I Live For The Sun /bw/ Bye Baby Bye)
- the complete Japanese Pastmasters CD-series from 1989
- several US-Epic CD's (series is nearly complete)
- The Honeys CD: Capitol Collectors Series

And just last Saturday I overloaded myself with more goodies bought at the international Record/CD-fair in Utrecht (Netherlands). Another copy of Pet Sounds (UK reissue, variation nr. 34 in total...), Zimbabwe pressing of Still Cruisin', lot's of singles (mostly Mexican + the French Child Of Winter + South African Flames single For Your Precious Love with PS), and a whole series of bootlegs I still missed in my collection (Long Lost Surf Songs, Surfin' Rarities).

O, and I didn't have the time to watch it yet, but is anyone familiar with a Japanese boot DVD with two 50th anniversary gigs on it + a whole bunch of TV performances?

... maybe I should cut down on my spendings a bit ...

Are you aware that you're morally obliged to share all of the above with us? Otherwise it would just be like someone had found a cure for a terrible disease, and then would refuse to make it avail...

...oh no, I think I'll stop here.

where can they be obtained? 

[punkinhead]

Not that it's rare, I'm sure you could find it on eBay or something quick…anyways, I found the Shut Down album that Capitol put out. It's rare to find in my neck if the woods at least.

Finally gotta reason to bump this thread.

My birthday present & first BW autograph 

[bgas]

I can't see the autograph

[smile-holland]

I can't see the autograph

I can.

[The Shift]

… right  across the "STR" in strip.

[leggo of my ego]

I can't see the autograph

If you have Firefox browser, View Image and that sucker will enlarge big time.
I dont know if you can do that in IE though. I hate that browser.

-Americathon Soundtrack album
-VDP's Song Cycle and Super Chief
-1966 tour program
-1976 tour program
-25 Years of GV(Sunkist)
-California Dreaming/Lady Liberty single
-Rock and Roll to the Rescue 12" single

And that's just a sampling of my collection.

Is Peter Reum still using ebay? If so, where can I find his page? All the listings on here seem to be too old for me to see his username!

Not a Beach Boys item per se, but it is Beach Boys related. I recently found a promo copy of  the "See The Light" b/w "Get Your Mind Made Up" 45 by The Flame. Found it in the very back of a giant bin of 45's at my local record store. Only payed about 4 bucks for it, so I'd say I made it off alright.

Nice item!

Oh Hello thread I started and forgot all about. 

Looks my my latest acquisitions are the BB Trading Cards.

Before that I got a 2 track 10.5 reel of Pet Sounds "Live" supposedly from BBC - the cuts are not the same ones
as the CD/DVD and it sounds like an unedited Pet Sounds, but no encore (Good Vibrations?)

[leggo of my ego]

Look Kids!! Who says Brian Wilson is the only Beach Boy that's also a Baseball Icon!

Got a 120 basic card set of Beach Boys cards as an early Christmas present on Sunday night. I've already got all of them in plastic covers and have shuffled through them a ton. Great collection of photos that really displays the band's career well. There were a few cards I looked at that I couldn't help but say "wow" out loud in reaction to they were so nice. High def pics, too. Good cards. Merry Christmas everyone!
