Free Music Review: Every generation should take the time to soak them in
Hit: 5 Stars

I know what your thinking, `Not another Beach Boys Collection?!' Yes folks it's true. I think this may actually mark their 100th collection of hits. Between different labels and versions releasing material, it's a little tough to tell anyway. Let's face it; no one defined the sounds of summer like The Beach Boys in the 60's. This collection focuses solely on their `beach' or summer sounds. Excluded is material from the pinnacle Beach Boys album Pet Sounds, and probably any other Brian Wilson-penned progressive and experimental material.

If you grew up during that time, this collection of 28 songs is sure to take you back to a simpler time. For others out there it will remind you of your parent's old record collections. A lot of you will recall the music from a movie or television commercial. And then there are others who will say, `who are the Beach Boys?' Shame on you, by the way. No matter how you slice it, The Beach Boys still remain a symbol of summer with there care-free songs, beautiful multi-part vocal harmonies, and relaxing melodies. Every generation should take the time to soak them in.

In a sense, The Warmth of the Sun is to 2004's double-platinum Sounds of Summer as 1975's Spirit of America was to the previous year's chart-topping Endless Summer. Both Summer compilations feature the obvious hits, and their followups collect less famous--though still worthy--tracks like "Hawaii," "409," and "Little Honda." But the 21st-century collections are sequenced by the Beach Boys themselves, and that means this volume's songs are second-tier in fame only. The casual fan whose curiosity was piqued by Sounds of Summer and picks this up for "All Summer Long" will be captivated by Brian Wilson's stops on the road to Pet Sounds ("Kiss Me Baby," "Please Let Me Wonder," "Let Him Run Wild," "The Little Girl I Once Knew"), moved by the father-son collaboration "Break Away" (in many ways the Beach Boys' farewell to the '60s), and floored by a string of five songs from the early '70s--a few of which had their genesis in the ill-fated Smile project--that are a perfect showcase for the maturity the group, especially Brian and Carl, managed to attain less than a decade after penning "Pom Pom Play Girl" ("Surf's Up," "Feel Flows," "All This Is That," "'Til I Die," "Sail On, Sailor"). Taken together, these two volumes provide an extraordinary portrait of a band attempting to straddle popularity and artistic vision, spotlighting each facet just long enough to make you want more. (Collectors note: many of these songs appear in new stereo remixes--they may not be the original Brian Wilson productions as he heard them, but being able to distinctly make out the vibraphone in "Let Him Run Wild" is worth it.) --Benjamin Lukoff
