I haven't even listen to all of the CDs, but what I have heard brings back great memories of what I couldn't find anyhwere else on CD. It's a great collection of work along with behind the scenes studio recordings. recomended for any Beach Boys casual or die hard fan.

This box set covers the first thirty years of the Beach Boys. Of course, much more space is devoted to the group's early glory days than to the uneven later years. The first four discs cover the high points of the band's carreer, featuring their most popular songs with a few rarities thrown into the mix. Disc 5 is all rarities, with backing tracks without vocals and such, which will appeal to serious Beach Boys fans but may be of little intrest to the casual listener. As a big fan of the Beach Boys, I liked all of it.

Great songs, lots of demos, pre-release takes, and even some radio promos. This CD set is only for the serious Beach Boys afficionado. If you just want the songs you heard on the radio, buy a "Best of" CD.

Editorial Review

From "Surfin'" to "Kokomo," the first four discs of this box chart the Beach Boys' inimitable 30-year course. Here are all the hits and key album tracks, and an assortment of unreleased material that illuminates Brian Wilson and company's immense contribution to the development of pop music. (Especially fascinating are the assembled fragments from Wilson's abandoned 1966 masterwork, Smile.) A fifth disc features demos, radio spots, live tracks, and studio goodies for the hardcore fan. The set confirms Brian's hardworking genius, but also gives each member his due, especially the late Carl Wilson. Rock & roll music grew up with the Beach Boys, and this box is rock's best family album. --Ben Edmonds
