Some curious BB live releases on Amazon

[Awesoman]

Upon checking out Amazon today, I came across a bunch of strange Beach Boys live releases I'm trying to determine whether or not they're "legit".  Have a look at the links yourselves:

Carl Wilson - Too Early To Tell - https://amzn.com/B01ARYG0TS
Beach Boys - Ringing The Liberty Bell - https://amzn.com/B01B8B54ZU
Beach Boys - Independence Day Party 1981 - https://amzn.com/B01EX0PXZY
Beach Boys - Live At The Fillmore East 1971 - https://amzn.com/B01A9U6JEG
Beach Boys - With Me Tonight: Radio Broadcast 1968 - 1970 (appears to be mostly SMiLE tracks) - https://amzn.com/B01D01K2SA

Anybody own any of these?  Are they any good?  Or just bootlegs?

They are all boots. Somehow lately all kinds of bands have had their stuff released somewhat legally onto the market via shows that were broadcast on the radio back in the day. Is this legal? It seems so, but it's definitely nowhere close to official Beach Boys product.

There's a thread somewhere already discussing these.  I have bought 3 of them so far from HMV.  They are legalised boots but it is still good to buy these from a high street chain.  I bought the 1981 show last weekend and wondered if they only order in one of these at a time.  Maybe they know someone (me!) will always buy them, even if I have the actual boots!

Just think how the money could have been going to the group themselves if Beach Boys Central got up and running.  The sound quality would also be better.

I got the Live from Fillmore East one.
Only listened to it once as the sound quality was poor. Had trouble hearing vocals.

I have the Carl Wilson one, good quality, looks like basically the same song list as when we saw him at The Old Waldorf on the wharf in San Francisco earlier in the year. There were some folks in the club hollering "surf time!" after every song. It wasn't.

The Carl Wilson one looks interesting actually!
