Really like it

"This CD has a good quality and sound and I am enjoying it. My wife doesn't like the high pitch instrumentals."
This Music Followed Brian On Tour

"While I have had these arrangement on LP for many years now, I really have not played them for many years now due to the snap, crackle and pop of that medium. After seeing Brian Wilson in concert twice in recent weeks in the New York area, and hearing these arrangements being played before each show, I checked here on Amazon.Com and was pleasantly surprised to find that they have been issued together on one CD. Of course, I had to have them and must say that the CD versions are wonderful. You NEED to add these to your Beach Boys collection in order to make it complete.

"OK, for an old guy I remember the Hollyridge Strings from their 19060's instrumental covers of the Beatles, Beach Boys, Elvis, Four Seasons, Nat King Cole, Christmas Music and other titles of 33 rpm vinyl albums. I made CDs from my vinyl records of the Hollyridge Strings but these professionally produced CDs are much superior. I love the arrangements and most of the songs. If you've ever liked instrumental cover music, give this a try. They do a great job on the Beach Boys music, and this CD is a twofer!"
One of my Favorite CDs

"I have the Beach Boys CD. But there are times that I want to just listen to the music. This is by far the best rendition of their music. The individual instruments are more clearly heard than on competing albums. It is an inspirational CD."
