Podría decirse que si algún prejuicio se tiene contra la gran banda estadounidense BEACH BOYS , este debería quedar desterrado si uno escucha sus obras grabadas entre 1969-1971, que básicamente se resumen en dos obras maestras «Sunflowers «y «Surfs Up».
Hasta 1969 los Beach Boys eran dependientes del genio de Brian Wilson para ser los más aventajados artistas tras la desaparición de los Beatles como un grupo como tal, pero, sin embargo, la locura vital y mental de éste por aquellas datas no lo hacía apto para dirigir en pleno momento de la contracultura a la gran banda de los USA . Sin embargo, pese al enorme inconveniente de tener a un genio en condiciones no demasiado optimas, no fue obstáculo para que el resto de la banda se pusiera a rezar a las musas y su plegaría fuera atendida, pues de forma imprevista del conjunto surgieron dos de los mejores trabajos paridos durante los finales de los 60 y primeros 70 . Todos los que de algún modo tienen en mente a los BB como surferos o no conectan con las locas armonías surgidas del Pet Sounds o Smile se quedarán atónitos al escuchar las grabaciones de esta renacida banda.
Ahora, bajo el nombre de FEEL FLOWS se acoge en forma de 5 cds los álbumes originales, completos de «Sunflower» y «Surf’s Up» . Contará con grabaciones en vivo, promociones de radio, versiones alternativas, mezclas alternas, pistas de acompañamiento aisladas y versiones a capella, extraídas de las sesiones del álbum en una colección de 135 pistas que incluye 108 pistas inéditas, que incluyen un montón de temas del Lonely Surfer Dennis Wilson nunca escuchadas hasta ahora, demos de canciones que fueron a parar a American Spring, singles no incluidos en los álbumes etc.
Sin duda una de las recopilaciones del año ensamblada por Mark Linett y Alan Boyd que nos comentan todo lo necesario de lo acontecido en este destellante periodo de tiempo en forma de lujoso libreto. Una Box Set Obligatoria que vera la luz a finales de Julio.
