EXTD=ERT REVIEW: The best Beach Boys album, and one of the best of the
EXTD= 1960s. The group here reached a whole new level in terms of both
EXTD= composition and production, layering tracks upon tracks of vocal
EXTD=s and instruments to create a richly symphonic sound. Conventiona
EXTD=l keyboards and guitars were combined with exotic touches of orch
EXTD=estrated strings, bicycle bells, buzzing organs, harpsichords, fl
EXTD=utes, the Theremin, Hawaiian-sounding string instruments, Coca-Co
EXTD=la cans, barking dogs, and more. It wouldn't have been a classic 
EXTD=without great songs, and this has some of the group's most stunni
EXTD=ng melodies, as well as lyrical themes which evoke both the inten
EXTD=sity of newly-born love affairs and the disappointment of failed 
EXTD=romance (add in some general statements about loss of innocence a
EXTD=nd modern-day confusion as well). The spiritual quality of the ma
EXTD=terial is enhanced by some of the most gorgeous upper-register ma
EXTD=le vocals (especially by Brian and Carl Wilson) ever heard on a r
EXTD=ock record. "Wouldn't It Be Nice," "God Only Knows," "Caroline No
EXTD=," and "Sloop John B" (the last of which wasn't originally intend
EXTD=ed to go on the album) are the well-known hits, but equally worth
EXTD=y are such cuts as "You Still Believe in Me," "Don't Talk," "I Kn
EXTD=ow There's an Answer," and "I Just Wasn't Made for These Times." 
EXTD=It's often said that this is more of a Brian Wilson album than a 
EXTD=Beach Boys recording (session musicians played most of the parts)
EXTD=, but it should be noted that the harmonies are pure Beach Boys (
EXTD=and some of their best). Massively influential upon its release (
EXTD=although it was a relatively low seller compared to their previou
EXTD=s LPs), it immediately vaunted the band into the top level of roc

EXTD=resting but inessential outtakes, and a 1999 reissue added a new 
EXTD=stereo version of the entire album to the original mono program. 
EXTD=[The 40th Anniversary Limited Edition of Pet Sounds was a two-dis
EXTD=c edition of the program that contained one CD and one DVD. The C
EXTD=D portion included both mono and stereo versions of the original 
EXTD=program (plus the bonus track "Hang on to Your Ego"), just as an 
EXTD=earlier CD issue had. The DVD featured both video and audio mater

EXTD=been as dissected, overanalyzed, and predigested for public consu
EXTD=mption. In 1997 Capitol Records devoted an entire four-disc box s
EXTD=et, The Pet Sounds Sessions, to its thorough deconstruction. The 
EXTD=techno-marvel centerpiece of that project--the album's first true
EXTD= stereo mix, painstakingly conjured out of multitape session sour
EXTD=ces by producer-engineer Mark Linett (under Wilson's supervision)
EXTD=--was at once heresy and revelation. Now the label has gratifying
EXTD=ly seen fit to offer both mixes on a single disc (along with alte
EXTD=rnate versions of "Hang On to Your Ego," the original title of "I
EXTD= Know There's An Answer"), an idea that should please the orthodo
EXTD=x and heretics alike. And while the album has always clearly been
EXTD= The Brian Wilson Show featuring the Beach Boys, biographer Brad 
EXTD=Elliott's concise new notes attempt to be more inclusive of a wid
EXTD=er band perspective. The result (three of the five band members c

EXTD= Pet Sounds forever crystallized the band's various creative (in)
EXTD=differences, it also became Wilson's grand karmic joke on his ban

EXTD=com Customer Review\napproaching an true work of genius, June 21,
EXTD= 2001 \nReviewer: Rob Damm from Brick, NJ USA \nPet Sounds is an 
EXTD=album that is totally beyond comparison. To call it the best pop 
EXTD=album ever is an understatement, and also a little misleading. Th
EXTD=is music is beyond categorization as "pop"-- it's simply brillian
EXTD=t, idiosyncratic MUSIC. That being said, there is nothing in the 
EXTD=history of recorded music that even touches the sheer genius of t
EXTD=his record. Every microsecond of sound is so carefully considered
EXTD= and perfectly arranged that the result is the most emotionally t
EXTD=ouching collection of songs you'll ever hear. It is impossible to
EXTD= overrate Pet Sounds. It is unlike anything that came before or a
EXTD=fter. Nothing in the Beatles' over-hyped catalog even comes close
EXTD=-- and anything that might be in the same general proximity is ri
EXTD=ghtly credited more to George Martin's production than the "Fab F
EXTD=our". Remember, Pet Sounds is the work of one singular musical im
EXTD=agination-- Brian uses the Boys as "instruments"-- composed, arra
EXTD=nged, produced/assembled, dreamed as a coherent whole.\n\nThis al
EXTD=bum should be heard by EVERYONE, whatever you believe your musica
EXTD=l to be. It is one of the great works of Western Civilization for
EXTD= us to study, consider and enjoy. Beyond essential. \n\nThis vers
EXTD=ion offers the original Mono mix as well as a new Stereo mix. Obv
EXTD=iously,it should be heard in the original Mono to be fully apprec
EXTD=iated, but I'll be the first to admit the Stereo is REALLY good, 
EXTD=offering a sense of spaciousness and natural sound that is hard t
EXTD=o criticize. It's not a substitute for the original, but a great 
EXTD=addendum. Honestly, the best version is the DCC "gold" disc which
EXTD= is mastered with such attention to detail that it has an almost 
EXTD=intangible like-like quality not even present on the original LP.
EXTD= But, I own about 7 different copies and versions of this album o
EXTD=n various format, and this "two-fer" offeres excellent sound and 
EXTD=value. \n\nAmazon.com Customer Review\nBrian Wilson's Crowning Ac
EXTD=hievement (The Beach Boys, Too!), April 22, 2001 \nReviewer: John
EXTD= Peterson from Marinette, WI United States \nThis CD is, without 
EXTD=a doubt, one of the greatest pieces of music to come out of the 2
EXTD=0th century. Brian Wilson's knowledge of the studio has never bee
EXTD=n more beneficial, his musical vision never more stronger, his co
EXTD=mmunication with the session musicians (his "Wrecking Crew"), and
EXTD= with his lyricist Tony Asher never more open, his state of mind 
EXTD=never more optimistic, and his confidence was unshakable, even wi
EXTD=nning over Mike Love, who not unreasonably had his doubts on some
EXTD= of the lyrics' pessimism.\n\nThis could be one of the first "con
EXTD=cept" albums, dealing with the various stages of love relationshi
EXTD=ps. And the instrumentation used to reflect the depth of human fe
EXTD=elings (including empty water bottles and bicycle horns!) are ver
EXTD=y effective.\n\nThe most important instrument used was, of course
EXTD=, the group's vocals, never on better display as it is here. Bria
EXTD=n's amazing knowledge of harmony structure, of which member's voc
EXTD=al should be used, when to use it (and just as important when NOT
EXTD= to use it) reenforces the fact of Brian's genius is not just an 
EXTD=illusion. This of course applies to a number of Beach Boy songs a
EXTD=nd albums. \n\nThe one song that feels lyrically out of place is 
EXTD="Sloop John B" but it's such an incredible performance that this 
EXTD=is nit-picking.\n\nWhat's great about getting both the mono and s
EXTD=tereo versions here is that you can compare the subtle difference
EXTD=s of the vocals (and vocalists) used. This is explained in the 32
EXTD= page booklet.\n\nOf the bonus tracks included in the 1990 reissu
EXTD=e, the only one to make it to this reissue is the "guide" vocal v
EXTD=ersion of "Hang On To Your Ego" later changed to "I Know There's 
EXTD=An Answer" to placate Mike Love.\n\nA friend of mine bought me th
EXTD=is album 25 years ago (yikes!) on my 12th birthday. It's been a p
EXTD=art of my life ever since, and on this version you get the best o
EXTD=f both worlds (mono and stereo) with the best sound quality you'r
EXTD=e likely to hear. There's no excuse now not to buy this beautiful
EXTD= CD.\n\nBrian was inspired by The Beatles to make Pet Sounds. The
EXTD= Beatles were inspired by Pet Sounds to make Sgt. Pepper. What go
EXTD=es around comes around.\n\nAnd Brian, if you're reading this (hig
EXTD=hly unlikely) I just want to thank you for opening up my 12 year 
EXTD=old heart by baring your soul (and making me feel like a child ev
EXTD=ery time I hear it)! You're the best. \n\nCD Now Review (March 7,

EXTD=tion, the tenderly crafted vocal harmonies, the innocence-found a
EXTD=nd lost odes to love and loneliness -- might not have come to fru
EXTD=ition had Brian Wilson not suffered a nervous breakdown triggered
EXTD= by the rigors of being in a hit pop-music group. Upon taking him
EXTD=self out of the Beach Boys' touring lineup, the eldest Wilson bro
EXTD=ther left the song-and-dance routine to the rest of the group, an
EXTD=d retreated to the recording studio in search of a muse -- and a 
EXTD=deeper meaning to pop music. \n\nInspired by the depth and artist
EXTD=ic vision of the Beatles' Rubber Soul, Wilson teamed up with coll
EXTD=aborator Tony Asher to craft a record that pushed the boundaries 
EXTD=of pop music with its sophistication and creativity. Where the Be
EXTD=ach Boys' main source of inspiration was once sun, surf, and sand
EXTD=, Wilson looked to his heart, mind, and the possibilities of the 
EXTD=studio to spark his imagination. \n\nThe album resonated with the
EXTD= sun-kissed innocence of previous Beach Boys sides, but Wilson's 
EXTD=grand vision (executed by a large cast of studio musicians -- the
EXTD= Beach Boys would add vocals later) dressed his pop songs in soni
EXTD=c textures heretofore unfamiliar to the format: grown-up textures
EXTD= such as strings, horns, sleigh bells, train whistles, and Wilson
EXTD='s full-blown fascination with Phil Spector's monstrous Wall of S
EXTD=ound production technique. \n\n"Wouldn't It Be Nice" and "God Onl
EXTD=y Knows," with their meticulous arrangements and themes of marria

EXTD=eased in 1966 after the Beatles' Rubber Soul, Pet Sounds is Brian
EXTD= Wilson's supreme triumph, a recording of awe-inspiring beauty an
EXTD=d masterful and ingenious studio creativity, so far ahead of its 
EXTD=time and so daringly experimental that Capitol, after previewing 
EXTD=it, amazingly refused to even release a single (eventually, "God 
EXTD=Only Knows" became a Top 5 hit in England, and "Wouldn't It Be Ni
EXTD=ce"/"God Only Knows" was finally issued here). While Pet Sounds i
EXTD=nfluenced innumerable other bands, it practically destroyed the B
EXTD=each Boys, creating such pressure that their proposed followup, S

EXTD=, Smiley Smile, was a commercial and artistic (at that time) nigh
EXTD=tmare. What makes the Beach Boys' music so fascinating are the ma

EXTD=rcentage of which has been brusquely disregarded by so many; and 
EXTD=a place in American popular music and social history matched only
EXTD= by Elvis Presley. Capitol, especially in lieu of their mediocre 
EXTD=Beatles reissues, has done a near-flawless job with these first d
EXTD=iscs, from the extensive liner notes and track-by-track descripti
EXTD=ons to the glorious monophonic sound just as Brian Wilson origina

EXTD=version, September 29, 2006\nReviewer: D. Shawn McCann (Massachus
EXTD=etts)\nIn 1999 Capitol released the first stereo/mono single disc
EXTD= version of this album. In 2000 they re-released it, and what I r
EXTD=ead at the time was they had goofed and not used the HDCD master 
EXTD=for the 1999 release. I didn't bother buying it again because I d
EXTD=on't have a player with HDCD capability. \n\nLast week I found ou
EXTD=t that there's another reason they re-released it in 2000: when t
EXTD=he stereo version was released, radio stations started playing th
EXTD=e stereo versions of the songs that were singles from this album.
EXTD= The stereo version of "Wouldn't It Be Nice" has Carl Wilson sing
EXTD=ing the bridge (...maybe if we think and wish and hope and pray i
EXTD=t might come true...), while it's Mike Love's voice on the mono v
EXTD=ersion that we've heard since 1966. When he found out about this,
EXTD= Mike Love had Capitol alter the stereo version of the song to in
EXTD=sert the bridge from the mono version with him singing. When you 
EXTD=listen to the stereo version of the song on this CD, you can hear
EXTD= how the stereo folds down to mono briefly during the bridge. Cap
EXTD=itol did a good job of splicing it together; I hadn't noticed it 
EXTD=until someone pointed it out to me. \n\nThe altered version of th
EXTD=is song has also appeared on compilations released since 2000. \n
