A live version of Pet Sounds, often cited as one of the most influential pop albums ever recorded, is set for U.S. release on June 11 by Sanctuary Records. The album will be released in the rest of the world on June 3.
The album was recorded during Beach Boys mastermind Brian Wilson's four sold-out shows earlier this year at Royal Festival Hall in London. Wilson and his backing band performed the 1966 album in its entirety in front of a crowd that included Roger Daltrey, Eric Clapton, Elvis Costello, Richard Ashcroft, the Chemical Brothers, Ray Davies, David Gilmour, Glenn Tilbrook, and Paul Weller, among others.
In a statement, Daltrey commented, "After seeing Brian Wilson playing Pet Sounds live, I immediately went home and put on the Beach Boys' record. I've got to admit, the record wasn't as good. Brian on his own gives it a whole new depth of sensitivity."
The musicians heard on Brian Wilson Presents Pet Sounds Live include the Los Angeles-based Wondermints Darian Sahanaja (vibes, keyboards, vocals), Mike D'Amico (percussion, vocals), Probyn Gregory (theramin, French horn, trumpet, vocals), and Nick Walusko (guitar, vocals); former Beach Boy associate Jeff Foskett (guitar, vocals); Poi Dog Pondering's Paul Mertens (saxophone, flute, vocals) and Bob Lizik (bass, vocals); Scott Bennett (keyboards, percussion, vocals); Jim Hines (drums, vocals); and Taylor Mills (vocals).
