The Beach Boys' unreleased and bootleg recordings

Last updated

Many recordings and performances by the Beach Boys have attained some level of public circulation without being available as a legal release, and several albums by the band or its members were fully assembled or near completion, before being shelved, rejected, or revised as an entirely new project. Since the early 1980s, numerous rarities compilations and album reissues have been released with studio outtakes included as bonus tracks.

Contents

Bootleg recordings arise from a multitude of sources, including broadcast performances, recordings of live shows, test discs, privately distributed copies of demos, and covertly copied studio session tapes. Some recordings have never seen wide public circulation. Others are only rumored to exist, were misapprehended to tangentially related projects, or have yet to surface in the hands of archivists or record collectors. This article includes commonly bootlegged material and unreleased (or formerly unreleased) recordings that are reported to exist.

Some of the largest sources of Beach Boys bootleg material have derived from the Pet Sounds and Smile sessions; their underground circulation eventually resulted in the officially issued compilations The Pet Sounds Sessions (1997) and The Smile Sessions (2011). In 2013, the latter won the Grammy Award for Best Historical Album. In 2011, Uncut voted Smile the number one "greatest bootleg recording of all time". [1] In 2003, Stylus Magazine named the Beach Boys' Smile, Landlocked, Adult Child , and Dennis Wilson's Bambu "A Lost Album Category Unto Themselves". [2]

Background

Existence of tapes

The current existence of most of the Beach Boys' tape masters was made possible by the fact that the band was in control of their material. Typically, record labels at the time would possess the multi-tracks, then wipe them once a final master was mixed down. [3] However, a myriad of original multi-track masters have been lost due to various circumstances. Some reports currently missing are:

Discoveries

In the last few decades, reels of tapes that were thought to be lost have been intermittently rediscovered.

In 2012, a new European Union copyright law was passed which extended the copyright of songs to 70 years, but only for recordings that were published within 50 years after they were made. [9] To prevent recordings made by 1960s artists from legally entering the public domain, many new rarities compilations were issued by record labels. [9] For the Beach Boys, this began with the digitally exclusive release The Big Beat 1963 (2013). [10] [11]

Unreleased albums

Smile (1966–1967)

Smile is an unfinished album that was abandoned in 1967. A large portion of the recordings were released on Good Vibrations: Thirty Years of the Beach Boys (1993) and The Smile Sessions (2011). [12]

Lei'd in Hawaii (1967)

Lei'd in Hawaii is a live album recorded in August and September 1967. [13] In 2017, the album was included in the compilation 1967 – Sunshine Tomorrow .

1975 Beach Boys/Chicago tour live album

In 1975, Chicago and the Beach Boys performed together on a joint summer tour. These performances were recorded for a potential live album, but one never materialized. [12]

Adult/Child (1977)

Adult/Child was the intended follow-up to The Beach Boys Love You (1977). [14]

Merry Christmas from the Beach Boys (1977)

Merry Christmas from the Beach Boys is the second Christmas album recorded by The Beach Boys and their third album planned for release in 1977. It was reportedly denied by Warner Bros. Records. Instead, the group released MIU Album in 1978 which was composed of songs from the same sessions.

Summer's Gone (2011–12)

Summer's Gone was the original title for the group's 2012 reunion album That's Why God Made the Radio , and an album-length suite was written in the theme. Only four of five tracks from the suite's closing half were included. The fifth was "I'd Go Anywhere" and would have fit between "Strange World" and "From There to Back Again". Both "I'd Go Anywhere" and the suite's opening half remain incomplete. Producer Joe Thomas has indicated a desire to finish the suite, [15] which had its origins in 1998 as cassette demos before Wilson began working on them again in 2008. A total of 28 songs were written and recorded for the album. [16] In 2013, it was announced that Wilson was working on finishing the thematic tracks (now dubbed "The Suite") for a new solo project. [17]

Other material

Reverberation (1969-1970)

An alternate version of Sunflower and 20/20 contained multiple tracks that would not be released for many years.

Landlocked (1970s)

Landlocked was a working title for Surf's Up (1971) [18] and Carl and the Passions – "So Tough" (1972). [19] Many bootlegs later adopted the title. [2] [20] [21]

Bedroom Tapes (1960s–70s)

"Bedroom Tapes" is an umbrella term for much of the unreleased material that Brian Wilson recorded in the late 1960s to early 1970s. It was coined by music journalist Brian Chidester in a 2014 article for LA Weekly . [4] [5]

Caribou Ranch sessions (1974)

In the mid-1970s, the Beach Boys recorded a wealth of unreleased material that had been intended for the album that became 15 Big Ones (1976). [12]

Studio reunion and Paley sessions (1990s)

In the 1990s, Brian worked with multi-instrumentalist Andy Paley on an assortment of recordings destined for a potential album that could have featured some involvement with the Beach Boys. [22]

Solo Beach Boys and sideprojects

Charles Manson sessions (1968)

According to Charles Manson, the musician later convicted for several murders, he took part in "a pretty fair session, putting down about ten songs" at Brian's home studio. [23] Band manager Nick Grillo stated that there were approximately "a hundred hours" of Manson's music recorded at the studio. In 1971, Mike Love told Rolling Stone that the band still possessed "several 8-track tapes of Charlie and the girls that Dennis cut." [24] In Vincent Bugliosi's 1974 book Helter Skelter , he reported that Dennis claimed to have destroyed the tapes, because "the vibrations connected with them don't belong on this earth." [25]

While the group denied that tapes of these sessions exist – with co-productions by Carl and Brian (not Dennis as had often been stated) – engineer Stephen Desper concurred that they do, believing at the time that Manson's material was "pretty good... he had musical talent." [12] The recordings were not demos as is often believed, but complete studio productions of songs which may have later appeared as rerecordings on his album Lie: The Love and Terror Cult (1970). [12] Badman states that a run-through of Manson's "Look at Your Game, Girl" was recorded on the same eight-track tape used for the 20/20 outtake "Well You Know I Knew". [26]

Music historian Andrew Doe has written that the chance of Manson's recordings seeing an official release has "not a hope in hell." [12] In 2009, photographer Ed Roach, a friend of Dennis's, posted online that he had "witnessed Dennis throw a 2" master tape in the ocean the year he died; (believe me, I tried to stop him!) I do understand that there is an additional tape still in the vault." [27] Asked about the existence of those tapes in 2021, Brother Records archive manager Alan Boyd declined to offer a comment. [28]

A World of Peace Must Come (1969)

A World of Peace Must Come is an album by poet Stephen Kalinich that was produced by Brian Wilson in August and September 1969. It was officially released on October 6, 2008. [29]

Friends remake (1970s)

In the early 1970s, Wilson rewrote and rerecorded some cuts from the Friends album. [30] Of the songs rerecorded, it was only the semi-instrumental "Passing By" that was eventually released on the compilation album Wake the World: The Friends Sessions in 2018, with notable differences being the addition of lyrics sung by Brian. [31] The others are believed to have been lost or erased.

Cows in the Pasture (1970s)

Cows in the Pasture is an unfinished country and western album by band promoter Fred Vail that was produced by Brian Wilson in April 1970. [32] In February 2024, it was announced that the album would finally see an official release, in 2025. [33]

Poops/Hubba Hubba (1970s)

Dennis's unfinished solo album from the early 1970s, co-produced with Daryl Dragon. [12]

Bambu (1977–79)

Bambu is an unfinished Dennis Wilson solo album which would have followed his first, Pacific Ocean Blue (1977). [2]

The Cocaine Sessions (1981)

"The Cocaine Sessions" (or "The Hamburger Sessions") [34] refers to a sporadic, collaborative recording session conducted by Brian Wilson in 1981 at musicologist Garby Leon's beach house. Recordings were made for songs entitled "Yeah", "Oh Lord", "City Blues", "I Made a Prayer" or "I Search This World", "Why Don't You Tell Me Why" or "You've Been", and "I Feel So Fine" (including a snippet of a cover of the Ronettes' "Be My Baby") on bootlegs as well as a rendition of "Heroes and Villains" with at least one other song, a ballad entitled "Bobby, Dale and Holly", having yet to surface officially or otherwise. [35] The titles popularly assigned to the sessions derive from an anecdote that Dennis Wilson gave Brian cocaine and McDonald's hamburgers in exchange for his participation (which was dramatized in a scene of the 1990 television movie Summer Dreams: The Story of the Beach Boys ) with Leon preferring "The Hamburger Sessions" as he claimed no cocaine was involved in the sessions themselves. Another song written by the two Wilsons and Leon, "Stevie", was later recorded at a studio as Dennis' final production before he died in 1983. [36]

Sequences that would later form the "Rio Grande" suite on Brian's 1988 debut solo album reportedly also came from the collaboration. [34] "I Made a Prayer" was reworked into "This Isn't Love" and recorded by actor Alan Cumming for the 2000 film The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas ' soundtrack. Brian later rerecorded "City Blues" (without co-writing credits of Dennis and/or Leon) featuring Eric Clapton for his 2004 album Gettin' In Over My Head . "Stevie" was allegedly written about Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac and was considered for the 2013 box set Made in California. [3]

The Wilson Project (1986–87)

"The Wilson Project" refers to sessions conducted between Brian and Gary Usher from June 1986 to July 1987 before the recording of Brian's first solo album. The name derives from Stephen McParland's book The Wilson Project, drawn from journals and tape diaries kept by Usher from the period. [12]

Sweet Insanity (1990–91)

Sweet Insanity is an unofficial Brian Wilson solo album that would have followed his first. It was rejected twice by Sire Records due to the inclusion of a rap song entitled "Smart Girls" and certain lyrics written by Wilson's conservator Eugene Landy.

Bootlegs

Vigotone

In 1993, the bootleg label Vigotone released a 2 CD edition of Smile (VT-110 &111), including a "complete" version of the album as well as other outtakes. [37] 1998, the label Vigotone followed up with Heroes and Vibrations (VT-163), a forty-minute disc culling working tapes from "Good Vibrations" and "Heroes and Villains". [38]

Sea of Tunes

Beginning in 1997, the Luxembourg-based [38] bootleg label Sea of Tunes (named after the Beach Boys' original publishing company) began releasing a series of CDs featuring high-quality outtakes, session tracks and alternate recordings that spanned the group's entire career. Among these was a three-CD set featuring over three hours of sessions for "Good Vibrations", and several multi-CD sets containing a significant number of the tracking, overdubbing, and mixing sessions for Smile . [39] Those involved with releasing these bootlegs were later apprehended by authorities, and it was reported that nearly 10,000 discs were seized. [40]

The Beach Boys are an American rock band formed in Hawthorne, California, in 1961. The group's original lineup consisted of brothers Brian, Dennis and Carl Wilson, their cousin Mike Love, and friend Al Jardine. Distinguished by its vocal harmonies, adolescent-oriented lyrics, and musical ingenuity, the band is one of the most influential acts of the rock era. The group drew on the music of older pop vocal groups, 1950s rock and roll, and black R&B to create its unique sound. Under Brian's direction, it often incorporated classical or jazz elements and unconventional recording techniques in innovative ways.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Dennis Wilson</span> American musician (1944–1983)

Dennis Carl Wilson was a musician who co-founded the Beach Boys. He is best remembered as their drummer and as the middle brother of bandmates Brian and Carl Wilson. Dennis was the only true surfer in the Beach Boys, and his personal life exemplified the "California Myth" that the band's early songs often celebrated. He was also known for his association with the Manson Family and for co-starring in the 1971 film Two-Lane Blacktop.

<i>Smiley Smile</i> 1967 studio album by the Beach Boys

Smiley Smile is the twelfth studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released on September 18, 1967. Conceived as a simpler and more relaxed version of their unfinished Smile album, Smiley Smile is distinguished for its homespun arrangements, "stoned" aesthetic, and lo-fi production. Critics and fans generally received the album and its lead single, "Heroes and Villains", with confusion and disappointment. The album reached number 9 on UK record charts, but sold poorly in the U.S., peaking at number 41—the band's lowest chart placement to that point.

<i>Sunflower</i> (The Beach Boys album) 1970 studio album by the Beach Boys

Sunflower is the 16th studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released on August 31, 1970 on Reprise Records, their first for the label. It received favorable reviews, but sold poorly, reaching number 151 on the US record charts during a four-week stay and becoming the lowest-charting Beach Boys album to that point. "Add Some Music to Your Day" was the only single that charted in the US, peaking at number 64. In the UK, the album peaked at number 29.

<i>Friends</i> (The Beach Boys album) 1968 album by the Beach Boys

Friends is the fourteenth studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released on June 24, 1968, through Capitol Records. The album is characterized by its calm and peaceful atmosphere, which contrasted the prevailing music trends of the time, and by its brevity, with five of its 12 tracks running less than two minutes long. It sold poorly, peaking at number 126 on the Billboard charts, the group's lowest U.S. chart performance to date, although it reached number 13 in the UK. Fans generally came to regard the album as one of the band's finest.

<i>20/20</i> (The Beach Boys album) 1969 studio album by US band The Beach Boys

20/20 is the 15th studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released February 10, 1969 on Capitol Records. The LP was named for being their 20th overall release when factoring in live albums and compilations. Much of 20/20 consists of outtakes from earlier albums. It reached number 3 on UK record charts and number 68 in the U.S. Brian Wilson was absent during most of the album's recording after admitting himself into a psychiatric hospital, requiring brothers Carl and Dennis to retrieve several outtakes he had recorded years earlier. While Brian does not appear on the front cover, the inner gatefold of the original vinyl release features him alone, behind an eye examination chart.

It was released as a single on October 10, 1966 and was an immediate critical and commercial hit, topping record charts in several countries including the United States and the United Kingdom. Characterized by its complex soundscapes, episodic structure and subversions of pop music formula, it was at the time the most expensive single ever recorded. "Good Vibrations" later became widely acclaimed as one of the finest and most important works of the rock era.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Heroes and Villains</span> 1967 single by the Beach Boys

"Heroes and Villains" is a song by the American rock band the Beach Boys from their 1967 album Smiley Smile and their unfinished Smile project. Written by Brian Wilson and Van Dyke Parks, Wilson envisioned the song as an Old West-themed musical comedy that would surpass the recording and artistic achievements of "Good Vibrations". The single was Brother Records' first release. While it failed to meet critical and commercial expectations, it was nevertheless a hit record, peaking at number 12 in the U.S. and number 8 in the UK.

It was one of the first songs that Brian wrote while under the influence of marijuana.

"Wonderful" is a song by the American rock band the Beach Boys from their 1967 album Smiley Smile and their unfinished Smile project.

Smile is an unfinished album by the American rock band the Beach Boys that was intended to follow their 1966 album Pet Sounds. It was to be an LP of twelve tracks assembled from modular fragments, the same editing process used for their "Good Vibrations" single. Instead, after a year of recording, the album was shelved and the group released a downscaled version, Smiley Smile, in September 1967. Over the next four decades, few of the original Smile tracks were officially released, and the project came to be regarded as the most legendary unreleased album in popular music history.

<i>Adult/Child</i> Unreleased Beach Boys album

Adult/Child is an unreleased studio album by the American rock band the Beach Boys that was produced in early 1977. Similar to the release it was meant to follow, The Beach Boys Love You, the album is essentially a semi-autobiographical solo effort by the band's chief songwriter and producer, Brian Wilson. The title refers to a theory that one's personality can be split into "adult" and "child" modes of thinking.

"Sherry She Needs Me" is a song written in 1965 by Brian Wilson and Russ Titelman for the American rock band the Beach Boys. The recording was not released until decades later.

<i>Leid in Hawaii</i> Live album (unfinished) by the Beach Boys
