Brian Wilson Rarities Vinyl LP Australia gatefold Beach Boys Capital (1981)
In 1981, Australian DJ and rock historian Glenn A. Baker along with Beach Boys fan club president Stephen McParland (and the backing of EMI Australia) set about compiling a Brian Wilson/Beach Boys Rarities set for the Australian market. It was to be a "best of" collection culled from the Capitol Years box set. The set was released in October of 1981. Three tracks not from the box set were also included. Lady and Sound Of Free by Dennis Wilson And Rumbo was a pair of sides released in Britain on the EMI-Stateside label. Also included was a live recording of the tune What'd I Say, from the Surfside '64 concert tour. It was recorded by radio station 2SM on group's stop in Sydney in January. The Ray Charles tune was a staple of the early '60s concerts.
I bought this new in the early 1980s and only played it a few times, mostly to tape for in car listening.
Disc is NM.
Jacket VG+ or better some minor edge wear. Still quite nice.
Includes the original plastic inner sleeve.
This particular compilation was never released in the U.S. and has never been released on CD and it is pretty likely that it will never be. The LP (and cassette) were pulled by Capital Records (USA) shortly after it's release in part, because several cuts (What I'd Say and the Dennis Wilson tracks) were not properly licensed.
