Thanks Mark Linett for all your hard work over the years. Still listen regularly to the Smile Sessions - love that set. Can’t wait for this one too.

Importcds.com 5 Cd set for US $88.52 plus s/h

Hmm....appealing. Anyone used this seller before?

Many times. All legit and good.

Thanks. Would be importing anyway and even with the additional charges this still works out better than Amazons base price. 👍

Are the ones on ImportCDs US copies being sold out of the US? That may be a dumb question, but I'm not sure what's "imported" about them. I'm really sold on that price, though!

I'd like to second that message by buddhahat, Mark! Thanks for all the work you guys did. For the Beach Boys' legacy and the Beach Boys' fans it is a blessing that people like you, Alan Boyd, Howie Edelson etc. are working on these releases.

Thanks Rocker, that is beautiful!!!!

The a capella version of Surf's Up.

Oh my lord.

https://www.qobuz.com and search for the Feel Flows set. Then scroll through the tracks and purchase the track. Only that and Big Sur are available for now.

Yeah it's been up for a couple days. I bought it on Wednesday. Odd that it hasn't been officially mentioned or added to streaming yet. But hey, I'm not complaining. The cleanest Child coda yet more than satisfies me.

The price for the 5CD set on Amazon US dropped to $105.99

I'd love to be able to download the mp3's PLUS order the book (physical or digital). But unfortunately not possible. Never play cd's or vinyl, always transfer to mp3. Don't get me wrong, been a fan and bought vinyl ever since 1965, but times have changed...

I've seen there's Hi-Res mp3 available. Any information on that? The quality compared to cd/vinyl?

Qobuz lists a FLAC download for around £55, which is lossless format, higher quality than mp3. However you can rip FLAC files from the CD anyway with a computer.

Purchased on 7 June my 5cd version from Amazon Italy for 68.85 Euros including tax (8% Swiss VAT) and includes delivery to Switzerland.

If I order today from Amazon IT, it is now 80.86 Euros.

It is a little strange how the prices can vary so much from Amazon site to Amazon Site. In my experience sometimes Amazon IT is cheaper and sometimes Amazon De. if you buy a French artist, Amazon FR is often the cheapest.

Amazon UK has since Brexit become much more expensive than Amazon DE but even then there are exceptions.

PS: My first post to this Board although I have lurked for years. Been a Beach Boy fan since 1973 when I was still at school in the UK - the second LP I bought was Holland (first LP John Lennon's Imagine).

24 bit 88.2 khz files are being offered, which is actually better quality than cd.

It's gone from £79 to £86 on Amazon UK too. A constant £90 on HMV though. Glad I got in early

Are the ones on ImportCDs US copies being sold out of the US? That may be a dumb question, but I'm not sure what's "imported" about them. I'm really sold on that price, though!

Yes, I think they're based in Kentucky.

Acting on a tip from a coupon site, I signed up for importcds' newsletter. Although there was no mention of this on their site, the email from importcds confirming the newsletter contained a 10% discount code good for 14 days. I successfully applied this to my order, bring the final cost for the   
5 cd set to just under $90... a full $25 less than Amazon. Shipping will be slower, as they say 5-10 days for the "standard" shipping I chose; you could upgrade to "expedited" for a few dollars more (I think about $5 as I recall) and still beat Bezos out of quite a few bucks.

Excellent information, thank you!

I really hoped for a remix mostly of the awful boomy bd on this whole world. Really glad the set is finally coming though!

Just bought the 5 CD box set on ImportCDs, that website is just amazing! Completely legit from what I can tell, and if you sign up for their email newsletter, you get a 10% off coupon. My order ended up being 88 USD, shipping and all! I'm so excited.

Does anyone know if there'll be a release of the Sunflower and Surf's Up LPs individually? I was considering buying the LP set just for the reissued albums, but I don't have that kind of money!

Yep, the July '76 Anaheim performance of Susie Cincinnati has been out in countries where it's Friday.

Listening to Susie... er... is this a pattern? ie. The preview tracks coming from the least talented songwriters of the group (and definitely the least associated with the creative bonanza that the Sunflower/Surf's Up era represent)... what's next... a Bruce song?
