Beach Boys SMiLE Box Set Giveaway!

Posted at 6:00 AM on November 7, 2011 by The Current (13 Comments)




The Beach Boys' Smile (sometimes stylized as SMiLE) was supposed to be the band's — or, more specifically, Brian Wilson's — masterpiece, their answer to Sgt. Pepper's game-changing shock-of-the-new immediacy. Instead, it went unreleased, soon becoming, as Rolling Stone would eventually call it, "the most famous unfinished album in rock & roll history." Until now.


SMiLE Sessions
SMiLE Sessions 2-Disc Edition


Drawn from the original masters, the new SMiLE Sessions presents an in-depth overview of The Beach Boys' recording sessions for the enigmatic album, which has achieved legendary, mythical status for music fans around the world. The SMiLE Sessions' 2CD lift-top box, double vinyl LP, digital album, and iTunes LP formats feature an approximation of what was intended to be the completed SMiLE album, plus additional session highlights and bonus tracks.


SMiLE Sessions
SMiLE Sessions Expanded Box Set


An expanded, boxed edition of The SMiLE Sessions will also be released physically and digitally, featuring the main SMiLE album tracks, plus four CDs of additional audio from the legendary sessions, a double vinyl LP set, and two 7" vinyl singles.


Thankfully for our faithful listeners, The Current has gotten our hands on not one, but TWO copies of the 2-CD set, and a copy of the expanded box set signed by Brian Wilson — and we're giving them away to a few lucky listeners.



Enter below! Oh, and don't forget to read the rules.

the current is the best station, hands-down. the DJs are fabulous; the playlist is more than great. the current is like listening to my own collection and more; keeps me up to date on new music, as well. would love the smile album to give to my brother as a xmas gift.

I want the celery song for my very own. And I am a California girl trapped by her own accord in Minnesota. What more do you need?
