Looks like the first official release of My Solution !

Re: Flex's Takes: The Beach Boys
I'm also happy this is getting a physical release. Last few were digital only, which is fine, but I like seeing them up on the shelf with the rest of my BB stuff.

Re: Flex's Takes: The Beach Boys
Yeah, I know that it's not rational but those digital releases - I tend to spin them once or twice (proverbially) and that's it. Every BB physical archival release I eat up and listen to over and over, make an event of, etc. I understand it's all 1s and 0s in the end but I can't completely mentally obliterate the physical/digital divide when it comes to my enjoyment.WestwayKid wrote: ↑03 Jun 2021, 1:46pmI'm also happy this is getting a physical release.

Re: Flex's Takes: The Beach Boys
There will be a gap between the 67 Sunshine Tomorrow set and the new one. I would gladly have shelled out for a physical release of everything in between.Flex wrote: ↑03 Jun 2021, 1:51pmYeah, I know that it's not rational but those digital releases - I tend to spin them once or twice (proverbially) and that's it.

Re: Flex's Takes: The Beach Boys
I've actually considered burning copies of those other archival releases and then printing out covers just to have something on the shelf.Flex wrote: ↑03 Jun 2021, 1:51pmYeah, I know that it's not rational but those digital releases - I tend to spin them once or twice (proverbially) and that's it.

Re: Flex's Takes: The Beach Boys
So been listening to the new box set through the day and really digging it. Sunflower always been my favourite BB album so no surprise there. Can't have too many versions of Add Some Music and the extended Til I Die from Surfs Up is a near masterpiece.

Re: Flex's Takes: The Beach Boys
Yeah, I've been very, very slowly working my way through the new set. Probably gonna really dig in this weekend, but this is a document of a band at a immense creative peak.Low Down Low wrote: ↑02 Sep 2021, 3:39pmSo been listening to the new box set through the day and really digging it.

Re: Flex's Takes: The Beach Boys
Yeah, a couple of hours today and I've barely skimmed the surface, just basically went through the tracks I like most in their various guises. Loving the a cappella tracks, if any band was made for a cappella, it was these guys.Flex wrote: ↑02 Sep 2021, 3:44pmYeah, I've been very, very slowly working my way through the new set.

Re: Flex's Takes: The Beach Boys
As much as I love Sunflower, man, Bruce's tracks are clunky and somewhat cringy. Interestingly, I just read that they wanted to fire him around 1969, but that Billy Hinsche, his suggested replacement, decided against joining.Flex wrote: ↑02 Sep 2021, 3:44pmYeah, I've been very, very slowly working my way through the new set.
