This 1980 Capitol records blue label version has rich, clear, and well balanced stereo sonics with a wide orchestral sound stage. I don't have the 1st stereo pressing to compare but this blue label version would be hard to top. I gave it 5 stars for sound quality.

I got this pressing sealed for a nice price.. cleaned with a KAB1 … sounds wonderful! Recommended!!! -

I have two copies with the exact same Deadwax numbers, both are definitely Stereo and one has a maroon label. The other has a blue label. both play identically, very good dynamically and it’s a good stereo version. -

This is one of the rare releases that lives up to the hype. It's not labeled as "audiophile" but oh my lord it is. It's a gorgeous release, the living definition of "glorious mono." This is probably what Brian heard in his head. -

Is this one not numbered? Words words words words words -

I was completely content with my '70s reissue, but snagged this just the other day since my local shop still had a copy. I could not be more happy with how this sounds too. It is as warm as the fireplace it's best enjoyed listening next to. You really get a sense of how dynamic of a baritone Mike Love was (He wasn't all bad, y'all). Highly recommend picking this up if you can. -
One of my favorite Christmas albums! I've always wondered why the mono pressings fade out at the beginning of "Merry Christmas, Baby" on what would be the 3rd verse. The stereo pressings don't do this - anyone know why? -
Great sounding club pressing. The yellow Capitol label used between 1972 and 1976. -

This pressing sounds fantastic. Super happy I got this for cheap! -
Compared to the AP mono pressings of Beach Boys albums, this has a lot more imperfections: sibilance, slightly dished, pops and crackles... However, the actual sound is mostly great. The sibilance is the biggest problem I have. The record itself plays very well, and sounds very very good. Definitely not a bad option
