The Beach Boys: Made In California (6-CD) LP-sized Digi-Book Limited Edition

(2013/CAPITOL) 174 tracks, 1962-2012

The set comes in the look of a high school yearbook and covers the entire career of the Beach Boys. Besides the classics, it also contains over 60 previously unreleased songs, demos, alternative mixes and live recordings.

The Beach Boys have opened their archive and put together a 6-CD collection that covers their entire career. It is called "Made In California" and will be released on the occasion of the 50th band anniversary at Capitol / UMG. It contains more than seven and a half hours of music with over 60 previously unreleased tracks. The Deluxe Set comes as a hardcover book in the look of a high school yearbook, with personal memories of the band members, replicas of legendary artworks and memorabilia, archive photos and with handwritten "yearbook entries" of the Beach Boys Brian Wilson, Mike Love, Al Jardine, Bruce Johnston and David Marks.

"Made In California" was produced by the Beach Boys and Grammy-winning Team Mark Linett, Alan Boyd and Dennis Wolf for'The SMiLE Sessions' and maps their 50-year band history from the earliest demos to the latest recordings in chronological order. With mega hits and rare jewels, many previously unreleased songs, home demos, alternative versions and mixes as well as concert, TV and radio appearances, the set shows the versatility and depth of its catalogue and illustrates the unique and eventful band history, a story from the American West Coast. From "Surfin' Safari" to "God Only Knows", "Wouldn't It Be Nice" and "Good Vibrations" to "Kokomo", the material is unmatched in American pop music.

The set includes an essay from Brian Wilson's high school days, 1959, entitled "My Philosophy". The original handwritten document is currently on display at the one-year Beach Boys exhibition at the Grammy Museum and has been reproduced for the set. In this essay Wilson expresses his desire for a fulfilled life. He writes: "I don't want to be satisfied with an average life, but want to make a name for myself with my work. I hope that's the music."

"What this boxing set captured was the development of a dream that began with singing Everly Brothers songs together with the family gathered around the piano and finally produced vocal harmonies that the fans carry in their hearts for a lifetime," Mike Love explains. "When I see these photos and rediscover songs, it reminds me how much I love Brian, Dennis, Carl, Bruce, Al and David. It really hits me that our stories still inspire and encourage new generations to just pick out a wave and ride it as long as possible."

Among the previously unreleased and long lost recordings on "Made In California" are "Goin' To The Beach", "California Feelin'", "Soul Searchin'", "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling" and "You're Still A Mystery". In addition, 17 live recordings will be released here for the very first time, including "Runaway" (1965), "Friends" and "Little Bird" (1968), "Wild Honey" (1972), "It's About Time" (1973), "Wonderful" and "Vegetables" from the legendary 1993 acoustic tour, and a version of "Sail On, Sailor" from 1995, with the soulful singing of the late Carl Wilson. Carl and Dennis Wilson's unique talent is sorely missed and comes to the fore on several of the previously unreleased recordings: Dennis, for example. (Wouldn't It Be Nice To) Live Again", "Barnyard Blues" and "My Love Lives On", and Carl's lead vocals on "Da Doo Ron Ron Ron" and "Soul Searchin'", as well as the joint lead vocals of Carl, Bruce and Brian on "California Feelin'".

From The Vaults' is a very special CD within the set, because the rarities on it were selected by the band and the producers especially for longtime Beach Boys fans. Highlights include a cappella mixes of particularly great vocal recordings for songs like "This Whole World" and "Slip On Through", alternative versions of "Don't Worry Baby" and other classics, session highlights and instrumentals, as well as live BBC recordings of "Wendy", "When I Grow Up (To Be A Man)" and "Hushabye" from 1964.

The Beach Boys are one of the most legendary bands in pop music history and the first pop band in America to break the 50-year mark. Founded in Hawthorne, California in 1961, the band originally consisted of the three teenage brothers Brian, Carl and Dennis, their cousin Mike Love and schoolmate Al Jardine. In 1962, when the first hits appeared on Capitol Records, neighbor David Mark joined the band and retired at the end of 1963. In 1965, when Brian Wilson retired from touring to concentrate on composing and producing for the band, Bruce Johnston joined them.

In 2012, the Beach Boys made headlines worldwide when Brian Wilson, Mike Love, Al Jardine, Bruce Johnston and David Marks got together again for a new studio album That's Why God Made The Radio and a 50-year anniversary tour. It was the first time in 20 years that Wilson was back in a big action.

That's Why God Made The Radio was released last June. It was the band's 29th studio album (including the 2011 SMiLE sessions) and the first in several decades on which all of the original members were still alive. Produced by Brian Wilson and Executive Producer Mike Love, the album entered the Billboard 200 album charts at number 3, the band's highest chart entry.

Beach Boys

Brian Wilson (vocals, piano born June 20, 1942),
Dennis Wilson (drums born 4. 12. 1944, died 28. 12. 1983),
Carl Wilson (vocals, guitar born 21. 12. 1946, died 6. 2. 1998),
Al Jardine (vocals, guitar born 3. 9. 1942) and
Mike Love (born 15. 3. 1941)

Beach Boys the inventors of vocal-surf music

They performed live for the first time on December 31, 1961 under the name Beach Boys - at the Ritchie Valen Memorial Concert in Long Beach. A mixture of close harmony vocals and Chuck-Berry borrowings made them kings of surf pop. The Beach Boys advanced more than 50 times into the Top 100 of the USA, came thereby three times on rank 1, with
"I Get Around" (1964),
"Help Me, Rhonda" (1965),
"Good Vibrations" (1966).

Their only German title, ' - Ganz allein" ("In My Room"), was already recorded in Hollywood's Western Studios on March 3, 1964, but was not officially released until 1983 on the LP "Rarities".
