The Beach Boys: Brian Wilson, Carl Wilson, Al Jardine, Dennis Wilson, Mike Love, Bruce Johnston, David Marks. Producers: Nick Venet, Brian Wilson, Murry Wilson. Compilation producer: Michael R. Ross. Recorded at Western Studios and Capitol Studios, Hollywood, California between June 1962 & June 1966. Just as everybody had written off the Beach Boys as passé, we were reminded of the colossal contribution that Brian Wilson had made to popular music with this inspired compilation. New Beach Boys albums were selling badly at the time of this release, and then somebody had the idea of packaging this superb collection of surf and car songs that reeked of sand, sea, sun and innocence.
