The Pet Sounds Sessions è un cofanetto antologico in 4 CD del gruppo musicale statunitense The Beach Boys pubblicato nel 1997 dalla Capitol Records.

Descrizione

Il materiale contenuto nel box set è costituito interamente da tracce provenienti dall'album Pet Sounds del 1966, e dalle sessioni di registrazione dell'album stesso e del singolo Good Vibrations (non incluso nell'album originale). L'album Pet Sounds è incluso nel cofanetto sia in versione mono, sia in stereo. Le altre tracce sono versioni strumentali, solo vocali, mixaggi alternativi, e vari montaggi dei momenti migliori delle sedute di registrazione per molte delle canzoni presenti sull'album, e anche di quelle poi non inserite nell'LP originale.

Tracce

Tutti i brani sono opera di Brian Wilson/Tony Asher, eccetto dove indicato.
