The Beach Boys - Best Of 1961-2012 6-CD - and similar items

Here it is - the ULTIMATE Beach Boys Collection, which gathers up 182 of their best-loved and most well-known songs spanning their entire career from young kids who recorded the Surfin' single in the home studio of Hite and Dorinda Morgan in October 1961 to the seasoned veterens who recorded their final album, That's Why God Made The Radio in 2012. Along the way, 182 tracks take you on a loving trip through the career of America's Band. This wonderful fan-made set has it all! All but seven tracks are in full stereo and to make it interesting, many of the songs continue well past their normal fade-out points so you can hear the full ending. As an added, fun bonus, six A.I. assisted tracks have been added to the set to give an even wider view of what was possible for the group. As if all that weren't enough, a few solo tracks from Dennis and Brian Wilson were included to expand on the scope of the group's sonic palette. Sound quality is top-notch and consistent throughout. This set is for casual fans, serious fans and anyone in between. For a group which have had countless compilations over the years, this is the end-all, be-all collection. The only one you'll ever need. Makes the perfect gift for any fan. DISC ONE (1961-1964) (all tracks in stereo except *mono) 1. SURFIN? (no fade-out) 2:26* 2. SURFIN?
