The Beach Boys
This 2-CD set, a tie-in with Jim Murphy's recent book Becoming The Beach Boys 1961-1963, chronicles the earliest years of America's Band. Featuring 62 tracks (over 40 previously unreleased), Omnivore's CD is released in conjunction with The Beach Boys' Brother Records, and features all of the extant session material and masters for the band's earliest recordings (including embryonic versions of "Surfin'," "Surfer Girl" and "Surfin' Safari").
