5.0 out of 5 stars Great early stuff!, July 21, 2002

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Original Surfin Hits (Audio CD)

This is good for earlier stuff. I like it for the demo of "surfer
girl." I also liked hearing the end of the session on "surfin"
and "Surfin safari" [also a demo]. I'm glad I bought it.

2.0 out of 5 stars As I've said before, this has been done better!, June 12, 2000

T.J. (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Original Surfin Hits (Audio CD)

This CD cannot compare to a CD entitled "Lost And Found" which is the definitive collection of The Beach Boys' pre-Capitol recordings. Said CD contains many bonus tracks like demos, studio chatter, alternate takes and mixes, etc - not just the final released versions found here.

If you can find that CD, which has mysteriously seemed to disappear since this and the "Surfin'" CD released in 2000 - both RIP-OFFS! - came out, then do not hesitate to get it. If not, you'll have to settle with this for now. Sorry.

4.0 out of 5 stars Meet the Beach Boys, August 17, 2006

GTTF (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Original Surfin Hits (Audio CD)

This is the Beach Boys when they first started so the recordings are not the radio versions. If you just like the Beach Boys moderately, you could pass on this album, however if you are a die-hard fan, don't pay too much but you should have this album.
