Avoiding the popular if slight surf and sun confections of the Beach Boys' earliest records, the Starbucks release Summer Crush: Songs We Love to Love is a surprisingly thoughtful and eclectic collection spotlighting Brian Wilson's most far-reaching songs and productions from his halcyon 1964-1973 period. The landmark Pet Sounds and its ill-fated follow-up, SMiLE, are well represented by classics like "God Only Knows," "Caroline No," and "Surf's Up," while lesser-known efforts from the early '70s like "Sail on Sailor" and "Friends" also make the grade. Though at only 14 tracks Summer Crush is absent any number of key moments from the period in question, at least its producers had the good sense to install a 1973 cutoff point, sparing listeners the horror of latter-day missteps like the godforsaken "Kokomo."
Maybe it's not new, but I haven't seen this before and I check out the starbucks cds often.
