In Brian Wilson/B. Boys
I can assure Beach Boys vinyl fans that the vinyl re-issues of "Sunflower" & "Surf's Up" are definitely in stores now, despite one comment to the contrary posted on this blog. I saw both re-issues at two separate stores this week. I have not yet purchased them myself, but I plan on doing so sometime soon.
On a side note, stay tuned for an up-coming blog project I've been thinking about for a long time. Hopefully over the 4th of July weekend I'll finally get around to my Beach Boys/Brian Wilson Promo CD Extravaganza. I've managed to pick up several promo CDs released by different record companies to promote up-coming Beach Boys and/or Brian Wilson albums. I've scanned one or two of these on the blog over the years, and I've written about a few others, but I've never put them all together. My plan is to put up scans and reviews of all of the promos I've come across. I especially love collecting rare, hard-to-find, promo only Beach Boys/Brian Wilson discs and I thought there may be a few other obsessives out there who'd like to see what I've picked up.
