How many Beach Boys albums do you have in your Itunes?

[SamMcK]

I have a few



Edit: ...and of course i've made Deluxe Editions of most of the albums using Singles, Outtakes, Demos, Unreleased Tracks and using many takes from the Unsurpassed Masters Series.

Good grief! A few, he says...

I do have iTunes but hardly ever resort to it these days.

I see now I have eight Gary Numan albums on it but all my BB albums are on CD or vinyl...

I prefer physical over digital.  But i do have sounds of summer or whatever greatest hits my sister bought a few yrs back on my itunes, im the same rarely ever listen to itunes

[The Cincinnati Kid]

I have about 700 songs and I thought that was a lot!  I see I still have a long way to go.

I have pretty much everything that has ever seen the light of day....on my hard drive. I use media player. I don't use "i" ANYTHING. Despise Apple with the burning  fury of 1000 suns.

I refuse to buy their phones or laptops, but iTunes is just really convenient.  Plus, I'm obsessed with keeping track of how many times I've played each song. 

[You Kane, You Commanded, You Conquered]

Not iTunes, but this is my BB collection on my PC (about 18gb, even though it is pretty barren). Solo albums are in a separate folder. Working on adding live stuff.

I didn't even know that was a feature!

I have to say that no matter how big my digital library gets, nothing and I mean NOTHING compares to listening to a Vinyl record, especially the likes of The Beach Boys and The Beatles.

[Scaroline No]

Well, I ask you to forgive me for my newbie status... I'm pretty new to the BB's and i'm going (mostly) in chronological order, so at the moment I've only got the studio albums from 1962-1977, plus the Smile Sessions and Smile 2004 on my iTunes.

Playlists include:

-Pre-Pet Sounds (studio albums 1962-1965)
-Pet Sounds
-Smiley Smile
-Post-Smiley Smile (studio albums 1967-1977)
-The Smile Sessions
-Smile 2004

Currently on a ...Love You listening binge.

However, I'm more proud of my modest but ever-growing BB/BW vinyl collection (17 albums in total, the most recent acquisitions being ...Love You, Shut Down V.2 and Surfer Girl, just last weekend). I'd post a pic but I can't seem to quite figure out how to embed images on here yet 

[Alex]

Zero, because I don't use itunes. (I'm all about the Winamp. Whip that llama's ass!!)

However, I do have roughly 67 hours of Beach Boys and BBs-related material on my computer, not counting live shows and SMiLE mixes.

[Malc]

Well thats a coincidence as I put same post up on my FB page just yesterday ! Spooky...
This is the current batch sitting in my iTunes files, but God Only Knows how long and much space it would take if I uploaded the 100+ discs still sitting in the cupboard. However, I have enough trouble choosing out of these which ones to play...

[“Big Daddy”]

My iTunes library is pretty light, mostly just the essentials.

[RangeRoverA1]

Zero, because I don't use itunes. (I'm all about the Winamp.)

I like old school Winamp too. Besides, it's got function to show the number of plays per song as well.

[SMiLE Brian]

Good choices!

Gotta say, although I definitely prefer the original album cover for Holland, the alternate international cover with the power socket is equally interesting!

That's what Last.fm is for!

[Lonely Summer]

I don't do iTunes. I do have a free Spotify account, and have made a Carl playlist there, but mostly I am a vinyl and cd guy.
