When Record Store Day came around this year I went to my local shop in Los Angeles. After waiting an hour in line to pick up the Sun Records comp, I made my way over to the Beach Boys cds, not expecting much; I go to the store about once a week, always on the lookout for something new to add to my BB collection, hoping against hope something rare will show up.

Lo and behold, I spot something out of the ordinary:

If it's something you saw in a store, nothing to worry about.

Some interesting selections for sure. Quite a few titles that haven't seen the light of day.

Some other insights based on the track list -

Many of these titles have been teased for years and many have circulated probably as far back as the late 1970s. Based off of what I know from what's on the comp, much of what's here is certainly "bonus track" quality.

AWAKE is one of the most beautiful songs I ever heard. Can't figure out why they never released it. Brian's voice is so incredible on it. Probably the prettiest demo recording ever.

 Shocked  You have done very well!

Any artifacts on the cover or the CDs (ie, if you stick it in a PC drive and see what date the files were created) that indicate what year this was put together?

Great find! Can you shed some light on the This Whole World (Alt vocals / long version)?

It starts with a brief session intro, just a little noodling before the count-in. The opening "I'm thinkin bout this whole world" sounds like Mike instead of Brian--possibly doubled with somebody else but even with headphones I can't be sure. Then it goes into Carl's lead, which is double-tracked. "When girls get mad at boys and go..." is sung by Brian as heard on Disc 6 of Made in California. He sounds awesome! I wish this line made the final cut. "You are there like everywhere" is back to Carl, double tracked again. The wordless break has a different mix with some of the backing vocals featured more prominently, reminding me of the dense, swirling vocal textures on Smile. The Sunflower mix is relatively tame here, favoring Brian's vocal at the expense of the overall blend. You can get a pretty good idea what I'm talking about by listening to the vocals-only mix of this passage and then the Sunflower version. Then, rather than an a cappella fade, the track keeps playing under the "Ah-Oom-Dot-Di-Dit" vocals. Where the song would normally end, Brian comes over the monitor and says, "that's it" but the band jams on for another minute until Brian comes on again saying, "we got it".

I don't see anything there that hasn't been booted before. Even the various mixes have shown up on boots. Nothing really surprising here. Was this from Rockaway or Amoeba or Fingerprints or Origami or Atomic or which store in L.A.?

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

So how does "Hawaii Song" sound ? And which "Ol' Movie" ? Some of those track notations and placements indicate to me that whoever compiled those lists doesn't know their BB archives, and that rules out Capitol or anything connected with Boyd. Something not quite right here.

This is important - if anyone is thinking of contacting Boyd about this, please don't. He's otherwise occupied right now. Maybe later.

"Single Release" of "We Got Love"?

Oh, and the idea of there being a whole extra minute of "This Whole World" blows my mind. That song always felt like it should go on forever...

Considering the track actually known as Hawaiian Song has a) never left the vaults, and b) was recorded YEARS before its placement here, I have a strong feeling it's a different song with the wrong title.  The weird thing is I was told years ago that the original lyrics of Til I Die were wiped and the tape no longer exists.

Most odd.

There is no "original mix" of "4th of July": the song as released on the 1993 box set was pieced together from at least two different tapes, and it's long been known that Carl's lead was a scratch/work vocal. It wasn't finished back in 1971. Definitely something odd going on here.

There's only one mistake on the set as far as I know: the track on Disc 2 listed as "Let's Put Our Hearts Together (early mix-Al lead)" is actually Love Is a Woman with Al on lead.

Beg to differ, but looking purely at the track listing there's about nine, ten errors that simply would not happen if Capitol or BRI (=Alan Boyd) were involved.
