Brian Wilson's mid-1970s return to the producer's chair gets a deep, overdue spotlight on We Gotta Groove: The Brother Studio Years, here as a Japanese import CD edition on Super-High Material CD.
The set centres on the period when the band worked out of their own Brother Studio in Santa Monica, the era that produced 15 Big Ones in 1976 and the quirky, beloved The Beach Boys Love You in 1977. It also opens the vault on the long-shelved Adult/Child sessions, giving fans a far fuller picture of a strange, creative and often misunderstood chapter.
Love You sits at its heart, and it remains one of the most personal things Brian ever made. "Roller Skating Child" bounces along on chunky synth bass and pure teenage glee, "Johnny Carson" is a sincere, slightly absurd tribute to a late-night TV host, and "Let Us Go On This Way" kicks things off with a joyful shove. The unreleased title track, "We Gotta Groove", shows just how loose and playful those sessions could get.
Outtakes, alternate mixes and covers fill in the rest, from rough demos to fully realised gems.
For collectors who always suspected this era had more to give, here is the proof, gathered with real care.
