5.0 out of 5 stars Brian Wilson worshippers, June 13, 2001

This review is from: The Warmth of the Sun: Songs Inspired by The Beach Boys (Audio CD)

This is a great CD with many artists that have worshiped and followed in the big footsteps of the great Brian Wilson, most with a positive statement. A diverse CD but with more positives than almost all empty music being released today.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Summer Collection, June 20, 2005

Warmth of the Sun is a good compilation of summer songs inspired by the Beach Boys and others. There are a few unknowns included, but this CD is essential to any summer collection. It is still secondary to 25 All Time Greatest Summer Songs on the Varese Sarabande label (available from Amazon.com) which has a greater variety of original summer hits done by the original artists.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great compilation, May 31, 2008

If you're a fan of the Beach Boys sound, or a fan of summer songs in general, you should enjoy this disc. There are many tracks on here that I didn't know existed. Girl On The Beach is an outstanding song. There are interesting liner notes for each track included.
