ODDS AND ENDS
| ||
The criteria for inclusion in this section, as opposed to the two main discographies, is that, while the track is credited to either The Beach Boys or a band member (sometimes as part of a duet), this version does not appear on a regular Beach Boys album - with one exception. The Beach Boys/Brian Wilson Rarities album was only ever released in Australia, and was swiftly withdrawn, yet it remains the only place you can (legally) hear the 1964 live recording of "What I Say". Unless noted otherwise, the tracks are credited to The Beach Boys, and all the albums are by various artists. | ||
