My brothers and I used to play Stack o Tracks and pretend we were in a band when we were kids. Set up the bean bag chairs and pound on them like they were drums
Thanks again, Paul. I was thinking of The Beach Boys this week as I listened to my cherished Jellyfish albums. I would love to see you do a track vs track of Bellybutton and Spilt Milk sometime. I liked your Kinks video and it made me think of Jellyfish. They definitely don’t get the love they deserved, but I know you know how amazing they are.
I’d really love to see more band collection videos like this. Also the friends with the free stamped in the cover is a promo copy. Capitol would stamp that or “promo” when they sent copies to radio stations.
Like the collection Paul. Great videos. I really enjoy them. I think I might put out my BB’s albums in a video too. Keep up the good work. Wayne - Aussie Vinyl Guy
Great collection of records and yes, you're not the only one who can't resist buying a better copy of one you already have 😂 Did you know that Holland appears to have had the EP sellotaped to the back of the sleeve on the initial US pressings ?
Omg...The Many Moods of Murry Wilson! I hope it's as bad as I've always fantasized!😊 I found a mono copy of All Summer Long with the 'Don't Break Down' misprint for 25 cents years ago.
Great video as always. A few of those Beach Boys related albums I didn't know about. Btw you didn't mention it but have you heard of Spring. It's a group Brian produced featuring his then wife Marilyn. I believe their album came out in the early 70s. It's very hard to come by though. The only thing I could find was a compilation with one of their songs on it.
If I could give you my location coordinates , you could transport(since you make it look so easy) yourself magically to my listening chamber and we could talk the Beach Boys all night and you would be be back in time for your next video. I can't wait. Peace and Mike Love.
@@AsItShouldBePodcast of course take your time, they have such a huge discography so I wasn’t expecting it to come super soon. Also I didn’t say this yet but amazing beach boy collection
I’m on America’s greatest band I really love the beach boys and really enjoyed this commentary. What a great collection Brian Wilson is a one man, McCartney, Lennon, and Harrison and I think your numbers him to just being single. He’s just such an amazing genius. Brian was just quite the guy. Brian went to places the Beatles couldn’t go with his mind! Dennis Carl Al, Bruce, David Marx all great all great all great nobody good quite top the beach boys as an American band
@@AsItShouldBePodcast I can understand. But because it’s so cringe, it has a kind of ‘so bad, it’s good’ cult following. I’d certainly buy one for $100 (but unfortunately the median discogs price is around $1000!) Love the cover art 🐋
Murry, Van, Celebration, Looking Back With Love...but still can't be bothered with the 1985 self titled, Still Cruisin', Summer in Paradise, etc. I'd maybe grab a "God Made Radio" on vinyl if a cheap one popped up, but that's definitely not gonna happen.
@@AsItShouldBePodcast Summer in Paradise is the only BB album I don’t have, and frankly, unless someone gave it to me, there is absolutely no way I will ever have a copy of it. (And even then, I’d look at the person who gave it to me with suspicion.) I rather like the 1985 album…
@@PapaNicksMusic The 80s production is bland beyond belief but there are a few songs I like on the self-titled album: Getcha Back...I'm So Lonely...It's Just a Matter of Time. Summer In Paradise might be their worst album, but isn't it also a real collectors item? I'd snag an affordable copy in a heartbeat.
I love my beat up Duophonic copy of “The Beach Boys Today!” A few years ago I “upgraded” by getting a mono version thinking that it would be preferable - nope! - the duo is my go-to copy. It just has a certain…atmosphere, or something, that I really like - am I crazy, or are there record collectors that also value that sound?
Nah, I get it. Certain records sound better with that cavernous sound. I’ve always preferred the over reverberated US mix of I Feel Fine from Beatles ‘65 over the relatively dry UK original. I don’t feel that way about all the reverb drenched US records, but certain ones…
When you cut away after Light Album I kept thinking, "no, please let it not be Celebration. Please. Anything but Celebration." Narrator: "It was Celebration."
As soon as you said the album was an inside joke with your friend, I knew it was going to be Looking Back with Love. I am unusual among Beach Boys fans in that I don’t hate Mike Love-I think he deserves a lot of credit for the Beach Boys’ popularity despite his arrogance and buffoonery-but that album is just white-hot trash. And yeah, that Blondie Chaplin album is fantastic!
@@AsItShouldBePodcast I'd still like know to if Mike is the one primarily responsible for "Guess I'm Dumb" not being on The Beach Boys Today (apparently certain bandmembers refused to sing the lyrics). A masterpiece got bumped and replaced with "Bull Session With The Big Daddy"--an unpardonable sin😅
I love Wild Honey. Probably my favorite post-Good-Vibrations album
I just mentioned in the Guncles 1966 video that y'all need to calm way down on those Beach Boys... And then this video drops! lol
I had you in my heart while making this one. 😉🤣

That's awesome! That is exactly what should be happening with that record.

Awesome collection!!!! Wild Honey is one of my favorites. I just picked up the Feel Flows and Sail On Sailor boxsets recently!

Oh yes! American Spring from 1972. That’s one I have yet to get a copy of. Did run across it once but it was more than I wanted to pay.
Shortly after Pet Sounds Capitol Recrds released a sort of 3rd Greatest hits album called Good Vibrations that included Little Girl I Once Knew.

I’m excited for your ranking video on The Beach Boys
That won’t be coming right away but definitely plan to do it.
@@AsItShouldBePodcast of course take your time, they have such a huge discography so I wasn’t expecting it to come super soon. Also I didn’t say this yet but amazing beach boy collection
Keeping The Summer Alive is underrated!!!
If I had the time and a woodchipper I would track down every copy of that thing and destroy them all.
@@threescoreandfive65 lol
Should show the labels.Are they initial glossy labelers for '62-64' albums?!?

I may have a lot of Beach Boys albums but there's still so much I don't have! Their catalog is huge. So much great stuff.
Very nice OG Flame w poster! 🔥. Great album. What, no Summer in Paradise??? Haha
Ha! No Summer in Paradise for me, thanks...even for free.
@@AsItShouldBePodcast Ironically SIP is one of the rarest/most expensive Beach Boys LPs as it was only released on vinyl in Korea.
@@jasonotoole1982 A record nobody wants even for free being one of the most expensive is kinda like a tree falling in the forest.

@@AsItShouldBePodcast Well, it could have been worse. It could have been the 1981 Beach Boys Medley, 12" version.
@@mikehernandez6024 Oh, I'd never go that far
You know, their reunion album was pretty decent all things considered.
