Notes

The booklet says the Gary Usher session is from October 1961 although the back card says 1962. The rest of CD1 is from 1963. CD2 is described in the booklet as: "All tracks from a tape which was recorded by Brian, probably as early as 1960. These recordings are the first recordings made by the Beach Boys." Overall sound quality is pretty darn good.
