So all that horsecrap certain members were posting the other day about Mike Love sabotaging the release of the soundtrack was exactly that - horsecrap.

My spidersenses tell me some folks wanted it to be true though…

I see the soundtrack is attributed to "various artists" even tho' the Atticus Rose stuff seems to be all Beach Boys… assume therefore a blend of Brian solo stuff and Beach Boys stuff.

That's such a shame as he's left the Beach Boys behind and this is his moment in the sun and they did so much to hold him back and I'm certain they tried to delay this release and I hope they wipe their contributions off the tapes before this gets released and he just needs a big cuddle really.  I've got one at my house he could have. He's not hungry, he just thinks he's hungry. Wink

I think the filmmakers made a mistake in not featuring more of Brian's 80's music. Seems like the only 80's song anyone will remember is Love and Mercy. Would've been cool to have a few scenes of Brian/Cusak demoing Melt Away, Water Builds Up, Rio Grande. Inclusions like those would have helped create an interesting and different soundtrack album. As it is, I see little use for a soundtrack cd.

Yah, i would've liked that (there's so many '60s studio scenes as it is; why not show Brian at work in the '80s). But i guess it works best the way it turned out. The scenes of Brian "practicing" Let's Go to Heaven in My Car at the piano and Melinda meeting Brian at the studio give a good sense of how recording music was for him by that point.

Breaking news: no-one here (OK, almost no-one here) has anything more than the wispiest notion of the internal workings of BriMel, BRI and the like. The real problem, and it's becoming increasingly scary, is that some don't know how much they don't know.

180 degree turn, which I must share: on A. N. Other forum, a poster condemned the soundtrack, claiming it was sub-par and why did they have to use a bad cover band - The California Beach Buoys - instead of the original BB tracks. He'd seen the film, then ten days later heard the soundtrack, or so he claimed. This is that album:

Yup, lot's of thumping of chests and now...crickets. Would love to hear some apologies. How about those with "insider" information give us updates on what changed???

That has been on iTunes since early July. Just someones idea of a "Soundtrack Cover Album".  Must be a new genre.

Luckily, that release has zero to do with the actual LOVE & MERCY Soundtrack that is due on September 18th.

I'm sure I share the same name with many people but they have nothing to do with me, personally.  Just making the point so no one scrolling through this thread confuses things.

At any rate, for those interested, Barnes & Noble has the listing on their site as well.  And you can actually pre-order there.  Amazon hasn't given the option yet to pre-order.  And for anyone keeping score at home, the UPC is 0602547507976.

Hoping for cover art and track-listing soon.

Someone created a Wikipedia entry (not me I swear!) for the L&M Soundtrack.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Love_%26_Mercy_%28soundtrack%29

Haven't skimmed it to see if any new info is present...on my way out the door from work.

Although obviously happy that it's happening now, the sad truth is that by not having all the shareholders sign off on the OST in the early spring -- when the original screenings were held -- there's a very real chance that the soundtrack will miss out on Grammy consideration.

Most of Grammy voters have had ample time to live with the soundtrack discs before the 10/2 official deadline.

Hopefully we're gonna get to the point when the parties realize that it's ONE brand.

I doubt that will ever happen, at least until there's only one party to make the choice

Amazon doesn't have a release date on its page anymore. And the B&N page is skimpy at best.

Count me skeptical until we have a press release.

And I will never apologize for believing the worst about Mike. He has earned it.

I noticed Monday night on my Amazon app that the release date wasn't there. If you go to the actual web, via an actual web browser, it has the same listing that has been there Monday.





B&N actually has more info than the Amazon page has, specifically the UPC code.

Last night, I did a quick chat with Amazon customer service and inquired about the listing. I was told that these types of listings come directly from the source provider, in this case the label. So it is as "official" as you can get, at this point, I think.

And, count me as someone that thinks maybe this was the plan all along. That is, to release the soundtrack at the same time as the BD/DVD. That has been the pattern with other recent Roadside Attractions films if you look at the release dates; clearly this doesn't deviate from their recent norm.

Basically, I don't think Myke Luhv has anything to do with he delay.

I think one can imply from the director's comments that they wanted this out several months ago, and that some sort of delay did occur.  Whomever is at fault, I'm pretty sure they would have had this out around May if they could have. It may have been delayed to the point where they felt it was better to tie it into the BD/DVD release than nothing at all.

So JCM,

I'm curious -- is your theory that Mike Love's camp (can't do the cutesy name spell, sorry) had nothing to do with (at least) the soundtrack's delay only have to do with Roadside Attractions' recent soundtracks corresponding with their DVD releases OR from your conversations with numerous people involved in the film, the Beach Boys, the soundtrack?

 Or is it a combination of both?

I recall the interview from early June where Bill Pohlad said 'we’re working on it now, there are complications because there are bits of songs from different eras, and it should be out soon after the film', or something like that.

Just trying to stick with what is known, rather than what is not known. Opinions are fine and I have mine too, quite frankly all I care about is that the thing is finally come out. That's what matters most to me.

Obviously I have no connections to anyone, nor do not claim to.

I only know what I have read, that a soundtrack would come out (Billboard, last September and several times since) and comments from the parties involved (Bill Pohlad, Oren Moverman) in interviews. I'm not privy to any "inside" information.

If you know something that's fine, definitely not trying to step on anyone's toes.

Amazon doesn't have a release date on its page anymore.

When I click on the 'See all formats and editions' link the  'Audio CD, September 18, 2015' still comes up.

Date still comes up further down page under 'Product Details' as well.

Don't be glum - Follow L&M OST up by listening to Carl's reissue CD coming out roughly the same time.  That's got a Grammy.
