Free Music Notes for Beach Boys' Party!/Stack-O-Tracks

Free Music Review: Sensational Fun
Hit: 5 Stars

Looooooooooooooooooooooove it! Such a fun album!!! I feel so good listening it! Free-style beautiful 60s harmonies, great acoustic strumming, love the party-like background chatter. Really was the first unplugged album, except it was fun, not all serious. This is a "party" album. It's meant for fun. This is not the outstanding album Pet Sounds. This is the have-a-good-time Party album. I think of good times and 60s southern california even though I wasn't even born yet.

Stack-O-Tracks has to be one of the first karaoke albums. Just instrumentals and I have a much greater appreciation for the breadth of musicianship either by the beach boys or the session musicians of the time who were abundant and outstanding at the same time. In fact some songs I prefer the instrumental to the actual songs.

Beach Boys' Party!/Stack-O-Tracks Poster

Party! and Stack-o-Tracks are two of the most unusual conceptions of the Beach Boys' Capitol era. After scoring two hit albums and the smash singles "Help Me Rhonda" and "California Girls" in '65, the Beach Boys' label seemed insatiable. So, literally on the brink of recording Pet Sounds, Brian Wilson and company retreated into a studio for a few nights with little more than some acoustic guitars, a couple bongos, and their spectacular voices. Perhaps taking its cue from Trini Lopez's "If I Had a Hammer" and the early "live" recordings of Johnny Rivers, Party! presented what seemed a spontaneous performance of a few band chestnuts, three cuts by archrivals the Beatles, some telling oldies, and even Dylan's "The Times They Are A-Changin,'" even if the "party" was actually a track of laughter and small talk dubbed in later. Ironically, the album also produced one of the band's last big chart hits, their lively cover of the Regents' "Barbara Ann."

The Beach Boys' plummeting post-Pet Sounds fortunes again inspired Capitol to try and cash in on the band's feel-good hits, releasing Stack-o-Tracks, what was effectively an interactive album: the instrumental tracks of several key hits and album cuts were presented sans vocals (and originally packaged with music, chord charts, and lyrics), allowing fans to sing along. Unfortunately, few in the turbulent summer of '68 were interested in harmonizing to "Catch a Wave" and the album failed to chart. But to hardcore fans it remains a rare window into Brian's remarkable prowess in the studio. This digitally remastered edition features three great new backing track bonus cuts: "Help Me, Rhonda," the still spectacular "California Girls," and "Our Car Club." This long out-of-print twofer package also includes notes from Brian on both albums, as well as the insightful analysis of Beach Boys and the California Myth author David Leaf. --Jerry McCulley
