I am going to include these in the compilations section of the Albums thread, but I just want to say that Japan releases EVERYTHING that is Beach Boys related (including a CD of THE MANY MOODS OF MURRY WILSON!?!?)
I started to collect their releases in 2002 because of CALIFORNIA FEELING and THE BRIAN WILSON PRODUCTIONS re-issue. And as I said, they have released so much, I just wanted to shine a light on three separate times they did it to highlight a major release stateside OR something huge happening in Japan.
In 1991, to call attention to the release of the BB Capitol catalog on CD, Japan issued the following releases to shine a light on the new remasters (although they used some of the mono mixes from the CAPITOL YEARS boxset for a few tracks).
Then in 1993, to herald the GV Box, Japan released the following to celebrate:
Finally in 2002, Brian announced his first solo tour of Pet Sounds in Japan. Toshiba-EMI went nuts with their PET SOUNDS 2002 release set.
And before anyone asks, yes I have all of them except for the Carl Wilson CD. Could never find it for a reasonable price.
