5.0 out of 5 stars Great Sound -No Bonus Tracks
Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2015

For those who want the most update mastering in stereo and mono for their collections. No bonus tracks are included which is too bad because they were included in the original releases of this CD. This was one of the CD's and LP's that was originLly released in true stereo in the 60's . So this is more for the completist or for the first time buyer.The same comments are true for the Surfer Girl and Little Deuce Coupe CD's that were released at the same time as this one

4.0 out of 5 stars Beach Boys' second album - good, but not great
Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2012
Verified Purchase
SURFIN' USA was The Beach Boys' second Capitol album, and was their first to go Top Ten. It contains the hits "Surfin' USA" (based on Chuck Berry's "Sweet Little Sixteen"), and "Shut Down," along with five surfing instrumentals, and other tracks such as "Lonely Sea," originally recorded on their 1962 demo. It was first released on CD as a Mobile Fidelity "two-fer" ( Surfer Girl & Surfin USA ) in 1989, and then was issued by Capitol as a "two-fer" ( with Surfin' Safari ) in 1990. The "two-fers" were broken up into separate CDs in the mid-'90s, but then resurfaced in 1997 as Canadian imports, and then were remastered and reissued in the USA in 2001.

The 2012 version of SURFIN' USA has both the mono (making its CD debut) and the stereo versions of the album. Both are nice to have, but if all you care about is the stereo version, stick with the  Surfin' Safari / Surfin' USA  "two-fer" mentioned above, which has bonus tracks. It's not The Boys' best work, but they would get a lot better next time.

NOTE: Like other reviewers, I also noticed that the front cover art, like the "two-fer," has the ten-song track listing from the budget-line reissue, instead of the full twelve-song version. Doesn't Capitol have the original cover in their vaults somewhere?

Being born in 1968 I grew up listening to stereo recordings, I cant even say when I realized that mono was the way things were recorded back than, But being a purist I don't think things should be altered to keep up w/the current times if something was recorded in mono leave it in mono hear it in the way it was meant to be heard. Hopefully you agree.

This album eliminates the bloat of songs that were added to the Surfin Safari /Surfs Up twofer. It is as the LP versions were issued. The quality of the sound is good and it is great to have both mono and stereo releases. I recommend this album.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sonic improvement over the prior CDs of Surfin' USA!
Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2012
Verified Purchase
What more can I say? The stereo parts sound great, and the mono parts sound even better -- glad to finally have these on CD!

Why is my review 4 out of 5 instead of 5 out of 5? Because there's at least one mastering error, in that the mono "Stoked" is missing about a split-second off the beginning, resulting in Mike Love saying "tooooooooked" instead of "stooooooooooked". I know, a minor quibble, but it's enough to be distracting...

Also, and this might seem nitpicky, but...why on EARTH has Capitol insisted for the past 22 years on using the album cover from the '80s budget re-issue instead of the ORIGINAL cover?? As a result, the front cover doesn't list "Stoked" and "Surf Jam," although those tunes are present. Clean copies of the original cover are NOT hard to find, and even if they're not perfect, Capitol's art department certainly has access to Photoshop or something and can fix any blemishes!

These 2012 Stereo Remasters are just great! They make the music "live" and more vibrant. A couple of nice instrumentals on this one similar to a lot of Dick Dale and The Ventures.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Newbie Review, but Do Not Compare with The Beatles Remasters
Reviewed in the United States on June 24, 2013
Verified Purchase
As a newbie to The Beach Boys, there's nothing much I previously knew about this album, entirely. But before this album, I had already purchased the two others- Surfer Girl & All Summer Long.
Honestly there is not much differentiation between the Mono and Stereo mixes in Surfin' USA. Since I know the other two are showing some differentiations between the Mono and Stereo mixes.
Do not compare The Beach Boys mono & stereo remastered with the albums belong to The Beatles releases. Beside there is fewest liner notes available within this album package.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply the Best - of the Beach Boys or anyone else.
Reviewed in Canada on May 12, 2015

Possibly the best album ever committed to vinyl or whatever a CD is made of. Some fast songs, some slow, instrumentals and all of it is just where it has to be. This is the high water mark (might be a pun) of the Beach Boys. They were just having fun and, too young to know better, doing some experimenting, weren't afraid to write bluesy - The Lonely Sea.

5.0 out of 5 stars UN RÉVÉLATEUR DU TALENT DES BEACH BOYS
Reviewed in France on December 18, 2014
Verified Purchase
Ce second album des BEACH BOYS a en fait été le premier à permettre de découvrir le groupe en France, où il a même été édité à l'identique (ce qui n'a pas été le cas de bien d'autres albums des Beach Boys, qu'on ne pouvait alors se procurer que d'importation, à prix souvent prohibitifs).
Tout a déjà été écrit sur son contenu, à savoir sept titres signés Brian Wilson plus un instrumental de Carl Wilson, et quatre reprises, dont "Surfin' USA", avec lequel les Beach Boys ont réellement révélé leur talent en matière d'accompagnement musical et d'harmonies vocales.
Quant à la présente édition, elle n'apporte certes pas grand chose par rapport à celle - déjà en stéréo - figurant sur celle de 1990 (Two Great Albums on One CD", mais on ne peut guère s'en dispenser si l'on veut compléter sa collection de rééditions "Mono-Stéréo" millésimées 2012, regrettant toutefois que cette dernière soit limitée à neuf des douze ou treize albums qui auraient mérité d'y figurer (en particulier le "Christmas Album" et le "Stack-O-Tracks", sans oublier le "Surfin' Safari" qu'on aurait bien aimé trouver à l'identique).

5.0 out of 5 stars The number 1 surfing group in the country!!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 28, 2013

SURFIN USA was the Beach Boys second studio album and a landmark in musical history. With this record the Beach Boys(particularly Brian Wilson) fought and won the right to record in whatever studio they chose. Something never done before in music history. Despite the inclusion of 5 instrumental tracks, Surfin USA stands as one of the best albums the group did . The Beach Boys are still in their relative infancy at this stage but the album shows some musical advances from their first album. Surfin USA shows of the fantastic lead and rhythm guitar prowess of Beach Boys David Marks and Carl Wilson and really gives them a chance to shine. The guitar work is all the more impressive when you realise that during the recording sessions, Carl Wilson had not long turned 16 and David Marks will still only 14!! Surfin USA/Shut Down was a double sided hit reaching 3 and 23 respectively in the US charts. There are some great surfing standards(Miserlou, Lets Go Trippin) amongst the many songs plus some very pretty Wilson compositions in the shape of Lana and Farmers Daughter. SURFIN USA reached number 2 on the billboard album charts and would eventually go platinum. This really is an impressive album, great harmonies, uptempo numbers and as I stated earlier, some brilliant guitar work.
