Unavailable Tracks.

Under the weather today so I have just been back in my office looking over my BB collection. This is a just to amuse myself post, but what's an old guy to do? I was wondering what BB tracks are currently no in release here in the states? I will be more than glad to start the list:
Sea Cruise
School Days - 45 mix
Here Comes The Night - 45 mix
It's A Beautiful Day - original 45 mix and LP mix
Trombone Dixie - the original mono mix on the first PS CD
In My Car, Island Girl, Somewhere Near Japan - Still Cruisin' tracks
Rock And Roll To The Rescue
I Was Made To Love Her - extended mix
And I am not sure if the releases from 1999 (20 GV, 20 More GV, and The Brother Years) are still in print. If not,
Rock And Roll Music - 45 mix
It's Ok - 45 mix
Friends - mono 45 mix
Sorry, being lazy, but that is all I can think of now. Any more?

One thing that got me thinking about this was the following line from an interview with Nancy Wilson from Heart. When she was married to Cameron Crowe, she was helping him put together the soundtrack for the movie Almost Famous. They both wanted the BB track "feel Flows", but they couldn't find it at the time:
Nancy Wilson: When it came to putting together the soundtrack we rediscovered “Feel Flows” by the Beach Boys. It plays during the closing credits but that song wasn’t even available on CD at the time. I had to dig the old vinyl out of Ann’s basement. Brian Wilson remixed it for the CD but the version we used was copied straight over from the vinyl, so that it would retain the warmth and the character of the original. There’s a beautiful velvety thickness that you only get from vinyl. That was a real college song for me. If you listen closely, you can hear the crackles.

Brian remixed "Surf's Up" for the 1991/2000 reissue program ? Never heard that before and, given his involvement in the album was less than complete, I have to question that statement.
Also, don't you lease the actual master tape - or a copy thereof - for movie release, not just rip it from a CD ?
Also squared, isn't the entire

album unavailable (not saying that's a bad thing, unless you're a completist...) plus the LP version of "Make It Big" (I'm assuming the soundtrack mix, which is rather different, is still "available" on a DVD release...) ?

I still see that one once in awhile at stores. It's not often though. Still, I'm not sure if S&S Vol 1 is technically out of print or not.

Wonder if she meant remastered? I pulled my CD of Almost Famous and ripped Feel Flows. Sounds like it was sourced from vinyl.

I was thinking the same thing. I have not heard of Brian doing any actual remixing in the recent past, aside from assisting and/or approving.
Interesting story, nonetheless. I never knew this bit of info about one of my favorite movies!

I guess that some of the single mixes (if they differ from the album mixes) are not available. I'd love to see a Beach Boys single collection with those mixes. Something like the Elvis Single Box with replicas of the original releases.

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

Aye, I'm sure it's simply a case of not knowing the difference between remastering and remixing, and not knowing the difference between Brian doing something and Brian approving something Mark Linett's done.

I think she didnt really know what she was talking about( as concerns Brian/remixing), but, it's clear from your quoted section ( at least to me) that Cameron simply used the vinyl for the soundtrack:
