Beach Boys Stereo Remixes

[Cal]

I'm compiling a list of Beach Boys stereo remixes that is woefully incomplete and I need some help from the experts (aside from the Pet Sounds album) filling in what's missing:


Sounds of Summer:

California Girls (EH too?)
Shut Down
Wouldn’t It Be Nice
Dance Dance Dance
Heroes and Villians

I think there was 7 new stereo mixes actually?

Warmth of The Sun:

All Summer Long
You're So Good To Me,
Then I Kissed Her,
Please Let Me Wonder,
Let Him Run Wild
Kiss Me Baby (which was on the Endless Harmony CD?)
Wendy

Hawthorne

Let The Wind Blow
The Lord’s Prayer

Beach Boys Singles box

She Knows Me Too Well

Summer Love Songs

Don’t Worry Baby
Why Do Fools Fall In Love
Hushabye
I’m So Young
Good To My Baby
Time To Get Alone


I appreciate the assistance and thanking in advance!

Regards,
Cal aka "Beatle Bob"

Thank you for the quick reply! It's appreciated! I'm making a compilation of the cv new stereo remixes for a friend who's ill. This is meant to cheer him up.

Just realized I don' t have the Singles Box as it's way too expensive....wonder if anyone could help me out with these three stereo remixes? It would be appreciated!

Thanking in advance!

Cal "aka" Beatle Bob

Don't forget "Summer Means New Love" on the Pet Sounds DVD-Audio disc.  It appears in both 2-channel stereo and 5.1 channel surround mixes.  I know with the proper software it can be extracted from the DVD-A file format to WAV.

Sounds of Summer:

California Girls (Should be same as EH mix)

Very different mix from initial/non-HDCD EH. Also subtly different from later/"revised" version of EH...

Kiss Me Baby (which was on the Endless Harmony CD?) Yes

Same as second/"revised" version of EH. But very different from initial/non-HDCD EH...

Also the Stack o tracks/Party 2fer CD had several stereo remixes of instrumental tracks.

 

[lance]

Is Wouldn't It Be Nice on SOS different from the version on the Pet Sounds album?

[Alex]

Also, all of Party! is in stereo on SOT UM 11 (which I do not own  .

99 cents per download on Amazon.com.  That's how I got 'em.

[chris.metcalfe]

Fantastic post (could  you highlight the album titles in bold?)

In other words, it's a b**y shambles. For the intelligent fan/collector, why on earth don't they just swallow hard and release everything they can remix in a special box at a special price - we'd all buy it, and wouldn't have to wade through all the other stuff.

I for one didn't know there were two versions of EH - thanks for that. What a bummer that She Knows Me in stereo is only on a US box set of singles!

[smile-holland]

Just realized I don' t have the Singles Box as it's way too expensive....wonder if anyone could help me out with these three stereo remixes? It would be appreciated!

In Holland it's offered pretty cheap on the local versionof Ebay, Marktplaats (Marketplace): €30,-
http://link.marktplaats.nl/249446756

Don't know what possibilities there are to get it shipped outside Holland, but you never know. One can always ask...

[Bicyclerider]

Also the binaural (vocal one side, instruments the other) tracks on disc 5 of the GV box:

All Summer Long
Wendy
Hushabye
when I Grow Up to be a Man

There was a strange BB CD called something like "Essential Beach Boys" with a die cut cover that had a remix (a "vocals up") version of one or two songs.  I'll check on that when I get home.

[Bicyclerider]

Oh, and the 93 stereo mixes of Baker Man (I think it was Baker Man - either that or Cindy), I Do, and Old Folks at Home/Old Man River were redone for the 2001 2fer releases (because they couldn't find the mixes they'd done in 93).  Old Man River is actually edited differently so both versions are essential.

[PongHit]

What a bummer that She Knows Me in stereo is only on a US box set of singles!

Hit the iTunes store!

[sockittome]

I for one didn't know there were two versions of EH - thanks for that.

'98 has a b/w photo of the group standing behind a fence or railing, with the title banner in bold white letters over a an orange striped backing.

'00 has a computer colorized shot of the group sitting on a roadster by the ocean.  This was the same cover used for the video.

[Jason]

Just a note that I edited my above list of stereo remixes to include unreleased ones.

[matt-zeus]

I had no idea that the 60s twofers had some remixes (mine are all from 1990) so I just downloaded the new 'I do' which sounds fantastic in stereo. On the preview of 'Old man river' though I can't hear much difference, what are the changes?

Endless Harmony DVD

"Long Promised Road" - with additional accoustic guitar

[Fall Breaks]

You mean Perfect Harmony, released in 1997 for some Capitol anniversary, I think. Features:

Hushabye (Vocals Up Version)
When I Grow Up (Vocals Up Version)

It's edited a little differently toward the end.  The downside is that the vocals disappear sooner, leaving more instrumental, but at least the flow of the song is a bit more logical.  This is why it's nice to have both versions.

[Joshilyn Hoisington]

I think it's probably important in making this kind of list to make a clear distinction between "STEREO REMIXES" and "IN STEREO."

To me, the "faders up" presentations on bootlegs and stuff are not and shouldn't be considered remixes.  Or mixes at all for that matter.

I mean, I know what you're trying to do on this thread and it's just a semantic issue, but semantics are what I do.  Or even "is what I do" depending on how one considers "semantics" to function in that sentence.

You should make a list of stereo remixes that had intent behind them and some actual mixing done, and then a separate list of songs that appear in stereo somewhere but aren't necessarily "remixed."
