The
Beach Boys - The SMiLE Sessions
Release Date: 31/10/2011
Never Before Released Original 1966-'67 Album Sessions
Between the summer of 1966 and early 1967,
The Beach Boys recorded a bounty of songs and drafts for an album, SMiLE,
that was intended to follow the band's 1966 masterpiece, Pet Sounds. The
sessions were ultimately shelved, and The Beach Boys' SMiLE has never
been released. With the full participation of original Beach Boys Al Jardine,
Mike Love, and Brian Wilson, Capitol/EMI has collected and compiled the
definitive collection, 'The SMiLE Sessions'.
The SMiLE Sessions presents an in-depth overview
of the recording sessions for the album, which achieved legendary, mythical
status for music fans around the world.
All of The SMiLE Sessions' physical and digital
configurations will include an assembled album of core tracks, while the
box set delves much deeper into the sessions, adding early song drafts,
alternate takes, instrumental and vocals-only mixes, and studio chatter.
Artwork for all of the SMiLE Sessions has
been created with and inspired by Beat-Pop artist Frank Holmes' original
1967 art and booklet designs intended for the SMiLE album. With its three-dimensional
shadowbox lid, The SMiLE
