I'm a big 60's music fan and have always loved the Beach Boys. Is anyone going to pick up the Smile sessions box set or two disc edition on Nov 1? For any newbies, Smile was going to be the follow up to Pet Sounds until Brian Wilson had a breakdown and the band dissented on the album's direction. Here's an article on the album sessions:

And audio of Hero's and Villians and Good Vibrations from the set along with a box set preview...

    I'm definitely getting it, just the 2 disc set. Being a fan of Brian Wilson's Smile, I can't wait to hear how different the original version is.

    Nice to know there's one other person buying it with me. :) It's considered to be the greatest 'lost album' in rock history. Seems like outside of the Beatles and Stones 60's music gets ignored in the other music forum.
