The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds (Mono & Stereo Mixes) - Analogue Productions SACD

Original mono mix produced by Brian Wilson. Stereo mix produced by Mark Linett under Brian Wilson's supervision. Audio production by Mark Linett for Brother Records.

Widely hailed as one of the greatest albums ever made, Pet Sounds (1966) is Brian Wilson's symphonic pop masterpiece — a lush, emotionally searching song cycle that forever expanded what a rock record could be. Inspired by the Beatles' Rubber Soul and built with the cream of L.A.'s Wrecking Crew session players, it pairs Wilson's groundbreaking, multilayered productions with achingly beautiful melodies and harmonies. From the euphoric "Wouldn't It Be Nice" and the transcendent "God Only Knows" to "Sloop John B," "I Just Wasn't Made for These Times," and the closing "Caroline No," it's a record of unmatched depth and craft. This Hybrid SACD presents both the mono and stereo mixes, mastered by Kevin Gray, plays in both CD and SACD players, and is part of Analogue Productions' definitive Beach Boys reissue program.
