Review - :
After gaining control of {$the Beach Boys}' entire catalog (including all the band's post-1969 material), {@Capitol} released two-fers covering their out of print '70s records and a {$Brian Wilson}-selected compilation titled {^Classics}, then later, this hits compilation -- the longest single-disc American collection ever seen. With all but five tracks coming from their 1962-1969 peak, and every one a Top 40 hit, {^Sounds of Summer: The Very Best of the Beach Boys} is also the best, a worthy digital-age successor to previous classics like {^Endless Summer} and {^Greatest Hits, Vol. 1}. Though the songs don't appear in chronological order, the compilers improved the concept of a hits compilation by bunching the disc into minisets -- one of classic adolescence songs ({&"Be True to Your School,"} {&"When I Grow Up [To Be a Man],"} {&"In My Room"}), one of surfing songs ({&"Surfin' Safari,"} {&"Surfin' U.S.A.,"} {&"Surfer Girl"}), one of frat-boy classics ({&"Dance, Dance, Dance,"} {&"Barbara Ann"}), and another including selections from their masterpiece {^Pet Sounds} ({&"God Only Knows,"} {&"Sloop John B.,"} {&"Wouldn't It Be Nice"}). Nearly any compilation on an important artist can be argued, but it's the rare one that covers as many bases and leaves out so few classics as {^Sounds of Summer: The Very Best of the Beach Boys}. ~ John Bush, All Music Guide
