Exceptional 1964 original Capital-TAO 2198 mono pressing of The Beach Boys's "BEACH BOYS CONCERT" album, boldly signed to the inner gatefold in black ink by Al Jardine, Mike Love, and Brian, Carl, and Dennis Wilson, with each inscribing "To Paul" and Brian Wilson adding " Best Wishes + Thanks for your interest in our group." A highly desirable and fully signed example of the band early in their careers, very uncommon. Slight rubbing to cover edges, else very fine.
Beach Boys Concert is the first live album by the American rock band the Beach Boys, released on October 19, 1964. It is their seventh album in all, and their third alone in the same year. It was their first of two chart-topping albums in the US (the other was their 1974 greatest hit compilation, Endless Summer), as well as the first live album to top pop music record charts, maintaining its position for four weeks during a sixty-two-week chart stay, and becoming another gold seller.
The album was recorded live at the Sacramento Memorial Auditorium in Sacramento, California, though it received heavy post-production treatment. Because Brian Wilson was about to vacate his position in the live group, and would only perform sporadically with them over the course of the next three decades, it is one of the few live documents of the original line-up of the Beach Boys that has been officially released.
