i had the version he realized by himself where he redid everything a couple years ago, i wasn't really a big fan to be honest. it was different from pet sounds in a way i didn't dig.
i listened to samples of the "new version" and it sounded exactly like wilson's new release except with old instrumentation, recording gear, and the 60's "sound".
so unless it's different tunes or takes or something, i'm not buying.
did you get it yet? what do you think?

I had a bootleg of the original version (which you're now calling "the "new" version") for years before Brian re-did the record a few years back for Nonesuch. There's no comparison, in my mind: the songs are near-identical, but the voices have aged (and the Nonesuch version doesn't have the rest of the Wilson clan), so the vocals just don't sound as angelic as they did in the 60s. Beyond that, there's the obvious sound quality: something about the old recordings puts me in another time and place in a way that the new one doesn't.
But man, those Beach Boys harmonies from the 60s, forever ascending melodies aimed for the heavens...Completely transcendent.
