About
Recorded August 1st, 1964 at the Civic Auditorium in Sacramento, California. I don't believe it was released until 1973 on Capital/EMI records as there is no date on the album or it's cover. Came with a 4 page booklet attached to the inside cover. Lots of fan noise If you like the Beach Boys, you'll like this Live recording.

"Beach Boys Concert" is the first live album by The Beach Boys, released in 1964. It was their third album release in that year. It provided The Beach Boys with their first #1 album in the US, remaining at the top for four weeks and becoming another Gold seller. It is also the only live document of the original five members of The Beach Boys in officially released LP form.
The album was recorded on December 21, 1963 and August 1, 1964 at the Civic Memorial Auditorium, Sacramento, CA. and August 31, 1964 at Western Studios. The album was originally released in Mono and a Chuck Britz Stereo mix. The Stereo mix is available on the 1990 & 2000 2fer CDs. The Mono mix is currently unavailable on CD.
Studio doctoring on "Beach Boys Concert" is evident, from the overdubbed vocals, and the fact that the concert also featured recordings from December 1963 (where announcer Fred Vail's introduction comes from). Most obviously, Brian Wilson used the original music tracks for both "Fun, Fun, Fun" (which was sped up) and "I Get Around", both of which had elements removed to make them appear as though they were new performances.
A truncated version was released on Pickwick Records as "Wow! Great Concert!".
