Good Vibrations: Thirty Years of The Beach Boys

Good Vibrations: Thirty Years of The Beach Boys è un cofanetto antologico in 5 CD del gruppo musicale statunitense The Beach Boys pubblicato nel 1993 dalla Capitol Records.

All'epoca della sua pubblicazione, il box set venne considerato particolarmente notevole poiché include, oltre a diverse rarità e versione alternative di brani celebri del gruppo, anche circa 30 minuti di materiale proveniente dalle sessioni del 1966/1967 per il leggendario "album perduto" Smile, che in precedenza non era mai stato pubblicato ufficialmente, anche se circolava su bootleg già da diversi anni.

Tracce

Tutti i brani sono opera di Brian Wilson & Mike Love, eccetto dove indicato. Tracce contrassegnate da "*" erano precedentemente inedite. Tracce contrassegnate da "+" sono tratte dalle sessioni originali del 1966–67 per Smile.
