    How much was Brian Wilson involved in this release? I'm mainly wondering about the sequencing and mixing of the songs. I am aware that there have been many various fan-based versions compiled with different track sequences but will this version be considered definitive?

    I am interested in eventually getting the 2-CD set.

    Why wouldn't the compilers want a Brian supervised and edited vintage mono mix of the Child instrumental track on the box? How many other vintage mono mixes of tracks, with or without lead vocals, do we have? The cantina Heroes, The Old Master Painter/Sunshine without the fade (except on acetate), Fire with sound effects, and maybe one version (the originally booted fire tapes version) of Worms. That's it. Yeah, we have sections of Cabinessence, Vegetables, etc., but not the entire tracks assembled and mixed down. To me that's way more important than "mission pak" in stereo or (insert track here) which we already have on unofficial releases.

    along the same lines, why haven't they released Brian vintage mono mix of Trombone Dixie?

    "The most famous unfinished album in rock & roll history…” – Rolling Stone

    Hollywood, California – August 30, 2011 – With the full participation of original Beach Boys Al Jardine, Mike Love, and Brian Wilson, Capitol/EMI has, for the first time, collected and compiled the band’s legendary 1966-’67 sessions for the never-completed SMiLE album. Capitol/EMI and The Beach Boys are pleased to announce November 1 (October 31 internationally) as the release date for the long-awaited arrival of The SMiLE Sessions in multiple physical and digital configurations. Artwork and complete tracklists are also unveiled for what Rolling Stone magazine recently called “the most famous unfinished album in rock & roll history.”

    In numerous sessions between the spring of 1966 and the summer of 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 master tapes were ultimately shelved, and The Beach Boys’ SMiLE has never been released. Drawn from the original masters, The SMiLE Sessions presents an in-depth overview of The Beach Boys' recording sessions for the enigmatic album, which has achieved legendary, mythical status for music fans around the world.

    The SMiLE Sessions’ 2CD lift-top box, double vinyl LP, digital album, and iTunes LP formats feature an approximation of what was intended to be the completed SMiLE album, compiled from The Beach Boys’ original session masters. Additional session highlights and bonus tracks are also included, including demos and stereo mixes.

    An expanded, boxed edition of The SMiLE Sessions will also be released physically and digitally, featuring the main SMiLE album tracks, plus four CDs of additional audio from the legendary sessions, a double vinyl LP set, and two 7” vinyl singles. The deluxe box will also contain a 60-page hardbound book with rare and previously unseen photos and memorabilia from The Beach Boys’ archive and newly-written essays by Beach Boys Al Jardine, Mike Love, Brian Wilson, and Bruce Johnston, as well as by Beach Boys historian and author Domenic Priore and many other inner-circle participants.

    Produced by Brian Wilson, Mark Linett, Alan Boyd and Dennis Wolfe in Los Angeles, all of The SMiLE Sessions’ physical and digital configurations include an assembled collection of core session 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. The SMiLE Sessions invites the listener into the studio to experience the album's creation, with producer, singer and bassist Brian Wilson's vision leading the way as he guides his fellow Beach Boys, singer Mike Love, drummer Dennis Wilson, lead guitarist Carl Wilson, rhythm guitarist Al Jardine, and newest member Bruce Johnston (who'd replaced Brian Wilson in the touring group during 1965), through the legendary sessions.

    Artwork for all of The SMiLE Sessions’ physical and digital configurations has been created with and inspired by Beat-Pop artist Frank Holmes’ original 1967 LP sleeve art and booklet designs intended for the SMiLE album. With its three-dimensional shadowbox lid, The SMiLE Sessions box set offers a whimsical peek inside the storied ‘SMiLE Shop.’

    Several special SMiLE Sessions packages will be available for purchase exclusively on thebeachboys.com, including:

    - The SMiLE Sessions 2CD edition paired with a limited edition SMiLE t-shirt

    - The SMiLE Sessions 2CD edition paired with a limited edition autographed lithograph

    - The SMiLE Sessions limited edition box set with light-up SMiLE Shop window on lid, autographed

    - The SMiLE Sessions limited edition box set with light-up SMiLE Shop window on lid, autographed, paired with a custom-made SMiLE surfboard by Hobie

    The Beach Boys are embracing technology and crowdsourcing to produce the first official music videos for "Good Vibrations" and "Heroes And Villains" by partnering with Tongal, the leading creative social platform. In Tongal’s first-ever music video initiative, fans can now collaborate to create the official music videos, as the project begins today (August 30) on Tongal.com, and consists of two phases - a concept phase and a video phase. The concept phase calls for fans to conceptualize the music video for “Heroes and Villains” or “Good Vibrations” in 250 characters or less. In the video phase, Tongal users can select one of the five winning concepts from phase one and produce a music video based on it. The video can be animated or live-action, trippy or classic – it can be whatever the fans want, as long as it’s their own. Cash prizes and special items, including an autographed custom Hobie longboard, will be awarded to Tongal users for the top submissions.

    The SMiLE Sessions box set will include details about Operation Smile, an international medical charity organization with a presence in more than 60 countries dedicated to healing children's smiles. Since 1982, Operation Smile - through the help of generous supporters and medical volunteers - has provided free surgeries worldwide for children born with facial deformities such as cleft lips and cleft palates. Every three minutes, a child somewhere in the world is born with a cleft. For more information on how to be involved or donate to Operation Smile, please visit www.operationsmile.org or call 1-888-OPSMILE (888-677-6453).

    When Capitol/EMI and The Beach Boys first announced plans for The SMiLE Sessions’ 2011 release, the news spread rapidly. Pitchfork reported, “The Beach Boys’ SMiLE is quite possibly the most storied album in rock history,” Billboard proclaimed the upcoming release “an event that pop music fans have been waiting for since the Summer of Love,” and The Washington Post called SMiLE “the most legendary unreleased album of all time.”

    The best efforts have been taken by The Beach Boys, the producers, and Capitol/EMI to present the SMiLE album sessions’ most vital and fascinating elements. However, there will no doubt be some debate amongst Beach Boys fans around the world who, during the past four decades, have become familiar with a variety of widely-traded bootlegged bits and pieces from the sessions. As recently explained by the Detroit Metro Times, “No album, released or not, has generated a more personal relationship with its audience, since no two people can ever agree on its content and purpose.”

    Beginning with “Good Vibrations,” The Beach Boys’ best-selling record in a long string of hits, Brian Wilson had begun to construct songs in a modular form, crafting individual sections that would later be edited together to form a coherent whole. In several intense bursts of creative energy, Wilson, drawing on the talents of the finest studio musicians in Los Angeles and utilizing the best studio facilities available on any given day, laid down dozens of musical fragments, all designed to fit together in any number of possible combinations. No one had done this before in pop music, and his next endeavor would be an album-length version of this unique and luxurious songwriting parlance: SMiLE.

    In 1965, Brian Wilson met an up-and-coming session keyboard player and songwriter, Van Dyke Parks. Noticing Parks' conversational eloquence, Wilson felt that he could help to volley The Beach Boys’ songwriting into the wave of broader-messaged and socially-conscious rock 'n' roll that would come to define the '60s. They were soon collaborating on keynote songs for SMiLE, including “Heroes And Villains,” the band’s follow-up single to “Good Vibrations.” Wilson and Parks would also co-write “Surf's Up,” “Vega-Tables,” “Cabin Essence,” “Do You Like Worms,” “Wonderful,” “Wind Chimes,” and other pieces of the SMiLE tapestry. Parks also introduced Frank Holmes to create album sleeve art and a booklet interpreting the album’s James Joyce-mode lyrics.

    The reason SMiLE did not see a release in 1967 had more to do with back room business that obscured the creative side of the program than anything else. In late 1966, The Beach Boys formed Brother Records, initially to produce outside artists. Soon, however, The Beach Boys would become embroiled in a court action with Capitol Records with the goal to become the top-selling artists on their self-owned, independent label. The group withheld “Heroes And Villains” and announced they would instead release “Vega-Tables” – recorded with the band’s own money in April of '67 – on Brother Records. By July of 1967, Capitol Records and The Beach Boys had come to terms, with Capitol agreeing to distribute the band’s Brother Records, and it was agreed that SMiLE was no longer to be the band’s next album.

    The Beach Boys and Capitol/EMI will celebrate the band’s 50th Anniversary in 2012. Plans for commemorative releases and other anniversary activities will be announced.

    “Surf's up, aboard a tidal wave, come about hard and join the young and often spring you gave. I heard the word, wonderful thing... a children's song...” - from “Surf's Up” (Brian Wilson/Van Dyke Parks)

    Well, you can find them here, on my handy side-by-side SMiLE chart, which absolutely nobody has begged me to repost. But I have updated it to include the hidden tracks, and to add the missing track times to the vinyl singles.

    Enjoy! :wave:

    Thanks for that :)

    Hidden tracks are so 1996. It's an archival release aimed at collectors. Why worry about party tricks??

    :rolleyes: Wow, I thought I was hyper-critical. You're going to rag on every aspect of this set, aren't you?

    I didn't add them for your sake, I was working on it when your complaint came in. I copied my post from a previous thread and then went through it adding the new information such as hidden tracks and vinyl track times.

    If you were reading a book about the making of SMiLE would you expect hidden chapters???

    I think they could have hidden them better. I see them right there on the track listings!

    All it means if you put the whole box on your ipod and play it in shuffle mode you'll get some tape rewinding as part of GV and 45 seconds of crackling noises at the end of 5 minutes of H&V early sessions outtakes.

    Well it sucks on the Pet Sounds box when you make an instrumental version of the album that you have to edit Here Today manually because of the hidden tracks. At least they could put them as separate 'bands'.

    Dear lord, my whole experience of listening to 'Brian Falls Into His Piano' will be forever tainted.

    The 'surprise' of hearing a 'hidden' track once is not worth the lifetime of hassles it represents. LIST IT ON THE COVER AND BAND IT SEPARATELY!!! :laugh:

    They ARE listed with separate track numbers ... maybe they are banded separately, and just not listed on the box?

    Capitol's not taking this project seriously. Surfboards, light up boxes, 78s, hidden tracks. Thank God they're not restoring Renaissance art. :laugh:

    Let's hope this one's hidden in Todd's Van Buskirk's next book ;)

    I think he was involved a lot

    According to what Mark Linett has said, the sequencing will be a lot like BWPS.
