Reviews
- When this box set came out, it was a BIG deal, as (up to that point) no "SMiLE" sessions had been released (although several tracks were reworked, such as "Surf's Up" and "Cabinessence" on future BB albums). Once you get to disc 2, and make your way past the "Pet Sounds" tracks, you'll hear why. The Brian vocals-and-piano version of "Surf's Up" is excellent, the original "Cabinessence" is great, and the "Heroes And Villains" tracks really show the work it took to piece it together. Sure, fans already had much of this, but there's a difference between having it on a dubbed cassette and on a official BB box set.
The other real jewel of the set (besides the other unreleased tracks spread around the other three discs) is the 5th "bonus" disc, which is made up of unreleased tracks, all killer, no filler. From the backing track versions of "Dance, Dance, Dance" and "I Get Around" (I hold a bias, as "Stack O' Tracks" has always been one of my favorite BB releases. I wish more artists and labels (hint, hint, Motown?) would do this to their back catalog.) to the "Stack O' Tracks/Stack O' Vocals" versions of "Wendy", "Hushabye" and "All Summer Long" (one channel has vocals, the other the BT), it is all worth listening to. Perhaps the icing on the cake is the unedited "God Only Knows" and "Good Vibrations" sessions. This gave fans a taste for what was to come ("Pet Sounds Sessions" box set), and the "God Only Knows" is great, as it shows the formation of the backing track, and what Brian was thinking.
Also on the disc, you get some station ID's, and live tracks ("Good Vibrations" was an early performance from '66, while "Surfer Girl", recorded in HI in '67, would mark the last time the core group (Brian, Carl, Al, Dennis & Mike) performed together.)
Summing up, if you find this box set cheap (and clean and complete, I might add), pick it up. It's a great starting point, as well as essential for all BB fans/collectors.
