I think it’s the greatest achievement in popular music … thanks to the genius of the late Brian Wilson. It’s a timeless work of art, an exquisite song cycle that changed my life and I’m pretty sure it will do the same for you. Sounds perfect on 180g vinyl, a superb pressing and this lovely album should be in every collection.

Pet Sounds... what more to say?

Bought it for my 18-year-old, who's taking an interest in my vinyl collection. Problem with my '80s vinyl is their quality. Thin as paper, some of them (if you're old enough to remember the first big "oil crisis" you'll understand). So it was a no-brainer getting him to buy one of the greatest pop/rock albums of all time. Excellent quality.

Did you know, this album was inspirational to the Beatles! Many of the technics and sounds used in this album by Brian Wilson were cutting edge and the Beatles were amazed. By the way, the title Pet Sounds, odd name but it's because Brian Wilson had above average hearing and could hear sounds that only some animals, like dogs, could hear.

Beach Boys' Best
Reviewed in Australia on July 31, 2023
Verified Purchase

This album is easily the best the Beach Boys ever made.Considering the vast spread of good music they made over many years,this is really saying something. The music came out of the mid-60s and the music scene then was ultra-competitive - think "Sgt Peppers". This compilation holds its head up among a multitude of good pop. The magic of Brian Wilson is omnipresent. Any single track is as good as any track on any Beatles' album. And there's no reliance on special effects.It's music,pure and simple.

Il capolavoro...
Reviewed in Italy on January 22, 2017
Verified Purchase
Ristampa del 2016, realizzata in occasione del 50esimo anniversario dalla uscita originaria, in vinile 180 grammi e corredata di copupon con codice per il download digitale, nella versione stereofonica, copertina pressoche' identica alla prima tiratura del 1966. Pubblicato in USA il 16 Maggio 1966 prima di "Smiley Smile" e dopo "Beach Boys Party ". Giunto al numero 10 delle classifiche USA ed al numero 2 di quelle UK. L'undicesimo album. Registrato dal 12 Luglio 1965 alla fine dell'Aprile 1966. Generalmente considerato come il capolavoro dei Beach Boys ed uno dei piu' geniali albums degli anni '60, il gruppo raggiunge qui il proprio culmine creativo sia a livello di composizioni che nel lavoro di studio, utilizzando procedimenti innovativi che sovrappongono le tastiere ad orchestrazioni, in un clima assolutamente druggy e carico di misticismo che vedono un' onda indefinita costruita con chitarre effettate, campanelli di bicicletta, organi distorti, clavicembali, flauti, suoni casuali, abbaiare di cani, slide, percussioni fatte con latine di coca cola e quant' altro, i brani sono tra i piu' memorabili tra quelli scritti dal gruppo, in particolare eccezionali le melodie, ma anche i testi sono di gran lunga i loro piu' complessi e variegati, le voci di Brian e Carl Wilson sono qui tra le piu' ispirate e tecnicamente perfette della intera storia del rock, tra i brani che figurano in questo album "Wouldn't It Be Nice", "God Only Knows", "Caroline No", "Sloop John B", "You Still Believe in Me", "Don't Talk", "I Know There's an Answer", "I Just Wasn't Made for These Times". Passato alla storia come il trionfo del genio poliedrico di Brian Wilson piu' che come un album dei Beach Boys (la maggior parte dei brani sono in effetti suonati da session men e non dal gruppo), le melodie sono invece quelle classiche dei Beach Boys, anche se ora completamente trasfigurate, album che ebbe vendite piuttosto scarse in USA (il loro meno venduto in assoluto dal 1963), ma che ando' benissimo Inghilterra, diverra' una delle influenze piu' grandi per tutta la psychedelia che sboccera' nel 1967, specialmente per quella inglese, i Beatles, Donovan, i Kaleidoscope, devono moltissimo a queste sonorita'. Certamente uno degli albums piu' influenti e riusciti della storia della musica rock. <<<

A fresh perspective, and the best MONO Pet Sounds to date
Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2009
Verified Purchase
This review is for the Pet Sounds 40th Anniversary CD + DVD.

- Audio CD: This is a NEWLY remastered mono version followed by the same superb remixed stereo program that was first introduced on the 1997 "The Pet Sounds Sessions" box set, and then released on the 1999 one-disc audio CD. Differences with the 40th Anniversary edition are that unlike the 1997 and 1999 versions, (a) the mono remaster comes from superior original master tapes (see Mark Linett's review) and (b) the entire CD was subsequently remastered in 24-bit format in 2000 using the HDCD process. Although all audio CDs are 16-bit, HDCDs have 20 bits of data encoded in the standard 16-bit audio signal.

- DVD: This is where the 40th Anniversary edition really shines. There are two components to the DVD: the videos, and the audio.

- DVD Videos: There is "The Making of Pet Sounds" which is a new edit of the fun & informative 1997 promo video. This is followed by "Pet Stories," which includes some 4 decades worth of interviews from ALL of the Beach Boys as well as Tony Asher, Bruce Johnston, a handful of the session musicians and other music industry insiders who were there at the time. Next is "Rhythm of Life," a 1990's BBC-produced short video segment where Beatles' producer Sir George Martin goes to Brian Wilson's home and the two end up in the studio going through the master tape for "God Only Knows." The video segment ends with the original 1966 promotional films for "Good Vibrations," "Sloop John B," and "Pet Sounds." These original films are worth a watch. The "Good Vibrations" promo film is the only one in color, and is brings to mind the "Mrs. O'Leary's Cow" 1966 recording sessions from the legendary "Smile" album when Brian brought out the red fire hats. The other two are more campy, black & white videos featuring Halloween masks, Mike drinking percolated coffee out of his boots, and The Beach Boy's playing an a pool.

- DVD Audio: This is the best part of the 40th Anniversary package. For the first time, listeners can hear Pet Sounds in either (a) High-resolution 96 kHz, 24-bit PCM stereo, or (b) Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound. The Hi-Res stereo sounds even better than the audio CD, especially when using good-quality headphones, but again there is not a monumental difference between the three different stereo versions. The Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Sound version, however, really elevates Pet Sounds to the next level. In the technical notes, Mark Linett says of the 5.1 mix:

"In placing the sounds in the mix, we have taken a very "wide" approach to the music, and attempted to surround the listener with sound. Note that the center speaker is barely used since the phantom center created by the left and right speakers is a much more accurate way to reproduce the desired imaging and reverb in the front channels."

This is immediately noticeable, and as Linett says, the end result is true to the original sound while surrounding the listener with a wide-spectrum aural experience. Just as the stereo Pet Sounds was a revelation to those of us who grew up listening to the mono all those years, the 5.1 mix brings out instrumentation and vocals that were even downed-out in the stereo mixes. The percussion is crisper and I can hear things I never noticed before, and yet when turning back to the stereo or even the mono version, sure enough those sounds are there too, just buried a little deeper. Because of the broad sound spectrum and sparse use of the center, turning the volume up a few notches is best when playing the 5.1 Surround mix.

- Pet Sounds booklet (liner notes): This release has newer, expanded liner notes, including more sections, added detail and even updating some of the information from the previous version. It's really nice to see the thorough notes on the remastering and remixing processes - this information is lacking and in some cases not even included with so many remastered albums today (Led Zeppelin's "Mothership," for example).

- Conclusion: Of course Brian Wilson did the original mix of Pet Sounds in mono, and that will always be the true reference, the benchmark, the final authority for how Pet Sounds was meant to be heard. Because the mono Pet Sounds on this CD is far superior, I have mothballed my 1999 CD and now strictly play the 40th Anniversary CD. The previous remastered mono version was flat and compressed, but those problems have been remedied here, and the results are stunning. The quality of this mono version is finally comparable to the quality of the stereo remix.

Having a Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound DVD audio mix is a rare but welcome option for classic albums such as Pet Sounds. The only other DVD 5.1 mix that comes to mind it The Beatles' "Love," but that seems somewhat less significant because it is not one of their original albums. With this release the bar has been raised for future remasters and anniversary editions - hopefully technology such as Dolby 5.1 and even 7.1 Surround Sound (not to mention Blu-Ray) will continue to be employed for projects such as these.

Brian is a musical genius and it is thanks to him and Mark Linett that all of the versions of Pet Sounds sound as good as they do. We are lucky to have so many options for experiencing the original Pet Sounds (and don't forget Brian's live Pet Sounds DVDs - they rock!). This 40th Anniversary edition is now out of print, so I recommend buying a copy if you can while they are still available. You won't be disappointed.
